Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Greensboro, Vermont, this homeowner had been dealing with noticeably sagging floors and a “bounce” feeling throughout parts of the home. Over time, weakened support in the basement had caused the main beam to settle, putting stress on the floor system above. After installing a SmartJack® support system, the difference was immediate. The new adjustable steel supports were placed beneath the main beam on a solid, engineered base, allowing the floors above to be carefully lifted and permanently stabilized. Once complete, the home felt solid again—no more bounce, no more sag, just strong, level support where it mattered most.

A crawl space in Newport, Vermont was being supported by old wood posts.  Northern Basement Systems came in and replaced the old wood post with Smart Jacks.  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.  All SmartJack parts are protected against rust with a thick galvanized coating.

This is a wall that was bowing and cracking. It was stabilized initially with our wall anchors then secured with our Shotcrete system. Shotcrete is a fiber-reinforced concrete material that is conveyed through a hose and pneumatically projected onto the wall surface.  The wall was reinforced and given structural integrity.

This South Acworth, NH, crawl space had an inadequately supported floor system and an exposed ground surface beneath the home. Our crew installed SmartJack® crawl space supports to stabilize the structure and added a CleanSpace® vapor barrier to create a cleaner, more protected area below the home.

A new concrete floor gave this West Fairlee, Vermont, garage a cleaner, stronger, and more functional surface. The finished slab provides a durable foundation for vehicle parking, storage, and everyday use.
