Sagging, bouncy floors indicate a serious structural problem that will worsen over time. These common conditions can make floors unsafe, while also causing unsightly cracks in wallboard and beneath baseboard molding. That’s what this homeowner noticed before she decided to call Mid-State Basement Systems for a solution. We sent out Corey Froelich to make a recommendation.

After inspecting the crawl space, Corey suggested SmartJacks to support the floor. The best way to permanently solve sagging, bouncy floor problems is to install SmartJack posts beneath the beam that supports your crawl space joists. Each SmartJack post rests on a precast concrete pad that is set on a base of compacted stone. This engineered structural system won’t settle like masonry piers can; nor will it rot or shift like a wood post.
