The floor rotted due to prolonged exposure to moisture, compromising its structural integrity. Our team removed and replaced the damaged subfloor and installed the SmartJack system in the crawl space to provide enhanced support and prevent future issues.
Moisture causes holes in floors by promoting wood rot, which weakens the material and allows it to deteriorate. Over time, this decay can create gaps or holes as the wood breaks down, especially when combined with pests like termites that are attracted to damp environments. Our team carefully removed the damaged floor and debris. They treated the space for mold growth and repaired the subfloor with new material.
Excess moisture in the crawl space caused the subfloor to weaken and rot, leading to severe damage that made the floor unstable and at risk of giving out. Our team removed the damaged subfloor, addressed the moisture issue, and installed a new, sturdy subfloor to restore the floor's integrity.
Mary J. of Statesboro, GA called Lowcountry Foundation Repair with a problem. Her floor was sagging and it felt weak in a few spots. Lowcountry Foundation Repair was able to stabilize Mary’s floors by installing a SmartJack System.
SmartJacks are custom-cut to length, crawl space support columns that are capable of supporting loads over 60,000 pounds each. SmartJacks are adjustable, and the effects of installing a SmartJack System are noticed right way. SmartJacks are also made of galvanized steel, so they won’t rust.
