Repair a sagging floor above a crawlspace in St. Catharines, ON

Alaine & Robert has a house in St. Catharines, ON with a dirt floor crawlspace. Like most houses with this type of foundation, the floors are sagging because of moisture and poorly supported floors. Omni Basement Systems installed the very strong SmartJacks in the crawlspace. The smartJacks are made from fully galvanized steel so they are rust free. They are designed to hold 30,000lbs each.  Omni also installed a supplemental beam to carry the load across the floor system. The SmartJacks are also fully adjustable so you can always make sure that your floor stays level over time. 

Wall support in Niagara Falls, ON

Bob has a house in  Niagara Falls, ON with a very large crack in the poured concrete foundation.  The size and the angle of the crack determined that the wall was tipping in and needed to be supported. Along with waterproofing, Omni Basement Systems installed PowerBraces to support the wall. PowerBraces are fully galvanized "I" beams that are bolted to the footing and then a specially designed bracket designed by Supportworks connect it to the floor joist system. There is a large adjustment bolt so that a bowing or tipping wall can be put back in place over time.
