Foundation and Crawl Space Repair of Alaska Before & After Photos

Imagine coming home every day to sagging floors - that was the reality for one Yakutat homeowner before they called us. The before photo shows just how unsettling it felt, but flip to the after shot to see the transformation. We installed SmartJacks, a trustworthy solution to fortify their foundation. 

We permanently stabilized this cabin's sinking foundation by installing helical piers to transfer the weight of the home to load-bearing soil or bedrock. They were even able to lift the cabin back to its original position, ridding of any sign that there was ever a foundation problem to begin with!

This homeowner had seepage in their basement, and wanted to fix it for good. To do this, we installed our TrenchDrain to catch excess water on the surface of the basement, and drain it directly into the TripleSafe, the world's most reliable pumping system. It provides three pumps to address the three reasons why basements flood, including power failure, pump failure, and a single pump being unable to keep up with the water volume in hard rain. 

Did you know that floors above crawl spaces are susceptible to problems created inside the crawl space itself? When moisture changes, it can cause soil movement. Weak foundation soils in a crawl space can cause columns to shift and settle. However, you can address problem soils with our SmartJack© system! Our SmartJacks© lift and stabilize existing beams and floor joists in your crawl space. Its built on a solid base of engineered fill, which transfers the weight of the home to competent strata. Its heavy-duty, threaded rods allow for adjustment, so every SmartJack© comes with a custom fit. Investing in crawl space solutions has huge benefits— not only for fixing sloping floors and weak foundation issues today, but also making sure it's fixed tomorrow and decades in the future.

Check out these before afters of a Super Sump install in a bedroom of this basement! It was a different layout than normal. As you will see we installed a pump in the corner of the room and ran an interior discharge line along the floor and up through the wall towards the side of the home. This will direct the water back outside the home without causing any damage to the structural integrity of the home.
