Photo Album: Stabilization of a crawl space in Saint-Hyppolite, Qc
Our customer who owned a house in Saint-Hyppolite area contacted us to tell us about some problems in her basement and needed our feedback. So we sent our specialist Alex who proposed a permanent waterproofing solution for Mrs. Madeleine, but while going through the area, he has noticed that the upper floor was bouncing.
Alex knew that he needed to check the crawl space as well, and this is where he noticed that the support beams started to get damaged and need to be changed.
Furthermore he recommended the installation of our SmartJack support beams. The Smartjack System permanently lifts and stabilizes existing beams and floor joists in your crawl space.
Our client was very happy with the results since water could not infiltrate her basement or her crawl space anymore.
