Your Local Foundation & Concrete Repair Company in Davison, MI

A long time homeowner in Davison, MI  was experiencing a sagging porch at the front of their home. They noticed that the porch had sunken over the years and was no longer level, causing it to appear uneven and unstable. This homeowner was concerned that this was a sign of a more serious problem with his home's foundation, so they began researching the best repair contractors nearby. This led them to call HomeSpec BasementFix and schedule an appointment.

Zach, a crawl space repair expert, was called out to the home to conduct  an inspection of the problematic areas. He discovered that the porch was sinking due to settlement issues in the crawl space. The crawl space beams and joists were sagging in this homeowners home which was causing the porch above to sink as well. He explained to the owner that this was a common problem that can occur due to soil movement, erosion, or other factors.

Zach proposed a solution: installing the SmartJack Support System in the crawl space. The SmartJack system is a crawl space stabilizing solution that is designed to support and level sagging or settling crawl space beams and joists. The SmartJack system is adjustable, which allows for fine-tuning and ongoing maintenance throughout the year, ensuring that the support remains effective over time. The homeowner agreed to the proposal and our crew got to work. They first cleared debris from the crawl space to access the beams and joists, then they installed the SmartJack Support System, which included a series of corrosion resistant steel support jacks that were placed under the beams and joists to provide support and stability. Our crew would proceed to adjust the jacks and level the beams and joists, ensuring that they were properly supported.

Once the installation was complete, our crew conducted a final inspection to ensure that the porch was now level and stable. The homeowner was thrilled with the results, and relieved the porch was now level and stable. The SmartJack Support System not only solved his porch settling issue, but it also prevented further foundation settling, improved structural integrity, and prevented damage to the home. This owner was happy to have the SmartJack Support System installed in their crawl space, it gave them peace of mind knowing that their home was now safe and secure. 

This Davison homeowner had a large, vertical crack in his basement that extended from the floor to the ceiling. At first it would leak a little bit after rain, but over the years it got progressively worse. The homeowner decided to call HomeSpec after finding puddles of water on the floor near the crack, and seeing the damage the water had done to the wall. 

The crack was filled and sealed by one of our professional crack technicians here at HomeSpec. The flexible, waterproof material ensures the homeowner will not have to worry about this crack leaking again. Then it was reinforced to ensure the crack will not worsen, and so new cracks will not form. 

The process was so quick and easy, the homeowner wished he had called HomeSpec sooner. He also reported having no water in his basement even after a very wet spring! 

This homeowner contacted HomeSpec because his floors were sagging. The main beams were rotting and damaged - they needed to be replaced immediately. The foundation of the home is no doubt the most important part - it supports the structure and holds the home up - which means its dire to quickly repair issues that arise. 

To solve this problem, our crew installed new main beams and support posts. This stabilizes the foundation and prevents the floors from sagging. Now the homeowner has a structurally sound foundation once more.
