As seen in the before photo, degradation had its hold – but not for long.

In Port Carling, Ontario, we were called to address structural concerns within a crawl space. The rim joist had begun to sag due to prolonged exposure to excess moisture, resulting in sagging floor above. To resolve the issue, we installed our SmartJack support system, engineered specifically for crawl space stabilization. The installation involved excavating footing holes and pouring engineered base pads to provide a stable load-bearing surface. Galvanized steel SmartJack posts were then custom-cut to fit the required height and precisely positioned beneath the rim joist. The SmartJack beams allow for immediate lift and long-term support. Once adjusted, the system redistributed the weight of the structure, reducing stress on the rim joist and preventing further settlement.

Before, our Toronto homeowner faced a stressful recommendation from a structural engineer: bracing their house to prevent serious issues. As you can see in the before photo, the foundation needed critical support. Enter Basement Systems Toronto: we installed our innovative SmartJack system, offering a sturdy, adjustable, and long-lasting solution. The after photo reveals a transformed space, securing the home's structural integrity and giving the homeowner peace of mind. Trust us to protect and enhance your home's foundation with care and expertise.
