Repairing an Unstable Crawlspace in Dix, IL

Crawlspace support blocks were failing in Dix, IL, as they were shifting and becoming uneven. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!

 

CleanSpace Installed in Warrensburg, IL

Warrensburg, IL homeowner Stan L. was concerned about the radon levels in his home as well as the high relative humidity of his crawl space.

System design specialist Greg B. evaluated the crawl space and suggested the use of CleanSpace, a vapor barrier that reduces moisture and humidity in the crawl space. It also helps to block out mold, pests, and even helps to reduce radon levels. Radon is a naturally occurring gas that is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking in the US.

Woods foreman Josh B. and crew then installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier in the crawl space, among other products such as the radon mitigation system and Geo-Lock Wall Anchors for a bowing wall.

Now Stan can live comfortably knowing the wall in his home is permanently stabilized, the radon levels are now safe, and the CleanSpace is providing a barrier between his home and the earth below it.
