How to Repair Sagging Floors Using SmartJacks

If you own a home with a crawl space, especially an older home you might have started to notice that the floor above your crawl space has started to sag or become bouncy. This is typically a good indicator that your floors are starting to sag down into your crawl space, which can indicate a structural issue that can put you and your family at risk of serious injury. Luckily our company offers SmartJack, which are adjustable steel support beams that can provide the proper lift and support to your sagging floors. 

What Causes Floors to Sag?

Here are the most common factors that lead to sagging floors in crawl spaces:

Life Span: The age of your home can play a role in your floor's health, your floor joists will sag over time due to not having enough support to support the weight of the furniture or people above. 

Sinking Piers: In some cases, masonry piers will sink into the soil, failing to provide the proper support to your floors causing them to become bouncy and sag.

Wood Rot: Moisture in your crawl space can lead to your wood support beams rotting causing them to fail.
