It might be hard to tell in the before photo of this cottage crawl space, but the ceiling is starting to slope. The ceilings of crawl spaces are called floor joists, and they are directly responsible for the structural integrity of the floor above them, along with anything else that depends on that floor. While a sloping floor is by no means a good thing, it isn’t a death sentence for your house, either. It’s pretty common for the wood joists in a crawl space to begin to rot due to exposure to moisture and other crawl space conditions. That is exactly why, as foundation experts, we use a permanent solution to stop sloping floors. The added support in the after photo is the SmartJack system. As you can see, the SmartJacks were attached at the top to the wood support beam that holds up the floor joists and secured into the ground with a backfill combination of gravel and concrete. The SmartJacks won’t start to sink or slip away, so neither will the crawl space. SmartJacks are the perfect solution for all sagging crawl spaces.

This summer cottage in Presque Isle, MI was built in the early 70’s, and over the years, the walls and floors in the home had become a little unstable. Our System Design Specialist entered the cinderblock-walled crawl space to install the SmartJack system to address this problem. Three high strength, steel support beams were installed along the floor joists then tightened in place to immediately stabilize the joist and lift the walls and floors back to their original position. The only system of its kind to address problem soils beneath the home, SmartJacks’ custom-designed structural footing base is engineered to effectively bear the weight of the home. This long-term solution will allow this cottage to see many more summers!

This crawl space in Presque Isle, MI was experiencing some issues with two walls where blocks were shifting. They had a contractor come in and lift the home but he only ended up making things worse. To paint and even more grim picture, once the problems got bigger, the contractor split. That's when the homeowner called us to fix the issue. The fix for this home was a couple of new steel beams to support the floor above. The beams were held in place by SmartJacks. SmartJacks are incredibly strong and their adjustable. They are a homeowners best option for lifting a sagging floor. Along the walls where blocks were shifting, we used wall anchors and PowerBraces. With wall anchors, large steel plates on the interior are connected to steel Geo-Lock earth anchors outside which help to hold the wall in place and possibly straighten it over time. PowerBraces work great when digging is not an option outside. PowerBraces are a sort of floor-to-ceiling zinc coated steel beam that support the home and offers a unique tightening option to possibly straighten the wall over time.

Job Stories From Presque Isle, MI
WaterGuard System and TripleSafe Defend Home in Presque Isle, MI From Water Intrusion

Nancy was frustrated with the waterproofing system she had in place, it was not able to keep up with the water leaking into her basement. She decided to call our waterproofing experts at Ayers for a more permanent solution! Our crew inspected the basement to determine the proper systems that would resolve the leaks. From there, we agreed our WaterGuard System partnered with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, would eliminate the leaks. WaterGuard consists of drainage piping placed in the subfloor of the basement. We run this system along the perimeter of the basement to ensure the water that leaks through the walls gets collected in the drain. Our experts pour concrete over the drainage system to conceal it. We hooked our TripleSafe Sump Pump System to the WaterGuard System so that the water is directed there instead of the floor. TripleSafe utilizes three pumps, each equipped to handle water intrusion. The last pump is battery-operated, which means it will turn on if the power fails. Nancy was glad she made the upgrade from her previous waterproofing system!

Periodic standing water, usually springtime. Also on Grand Lake, so it's just damp down there. I have purchased a dehumidifier and submersible pump but have not yet installed it as the house is being remodeled currently.
