This Jacksonville, FL property showed severe structural concerns beneath the home, including weakened wooden beams, sagging floors, and deteriorating support piers. Over time, shifting soil and moisture exposure had compromised the crawl space’s integrity, putting strain on the floor system above. To correct this, our team installed SmartJack Support Posts and a steel supplemental beam to permanently stabilize the foundation. These high-strength, adjustable supports lift and reinforce the structure, restoring level floors and providing long-term stability against future settlement.
