Foundation Repair Photo Album: SmartJack® Supports Stabilize Sloping Floors in Manitou Beach, MI
A Manitou Beach, MI home was suffering from sloping floors. The homeowner wanted to get this issue fixed by lifting the problematic corner of the house. They reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free estimate.
Ben, a HomeSpec senior project manager, inspected the sloping floor and the crawl space underneath. He discussed with the homeowner that the best way to remedy this situation would be to add supplemental beams and a SmartJack® support system. Installing these products would not only lift the floor to its original leveled height but also stabilize the area and prevent sloping in the future. The homeowner agreed with this proposal and HomeSpec sent a crew, led by foreman Jon, to proceed with the project.

A Closer Look
The SmartJack® support system can be installed throughout a crawl space. In this case, the area with slopping floors was the target so the system was installed along the wall.
