Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Wet & Sagging Crawl Space Repair in Boone, NC

Our team recently completed a comprehensive crawl space waterproofing and floor leveling project, utilizing our advanced StarPipe drainage system, Triplesafe sump pump, and SmartJack support system. The homeowner initially contacted our office for a free inspection due to excessive moisture in the crawl space, which was causing concerns about structural integrity and potential mold growth. To address these issues, we installed the StarPipe drainage system, which effectively collects and channels water away from the foundation, preventing water accumulation. The Triplesafe sump pump was then added to ensure efficient water removal, providing triple protection with its three pumps, including a backup battery system for continuous operation during power outages. Additionally, the SmartJack support system was implemented to stabilize and level the floor above the crawl space. This system addresses sagging floors by providing robust support and can be adjusted over time to maintain optimal floor levels. Together, these systems work seamlessly to keep the crawl space dry, protect the home's structural integrity, and prevent future moisture-related issues. The StarPipe system and Triplesafe sump pump manage water infiltration and removal, while the SmartJack support system ensures a stable and level floor. This comprehensive approach ensures a dry, safe, and structurally sound crawl space for years to come.

Sagging Crawl Space Support Columns

The support columns are sinking into the wet soil causing the floor above to sag due to inadequate support.

SmartJack Support System

Our team installed the SmartJack system to stabilize the sagging crawl space. By placing heavy-duty steel posts beneath the floor beams, we were able to lift and level the floors. The adjustable nature of the SmartJack posts ensures long-term stability, effectively preventing further sagging and ensuring a secure, level floor.

StarPipe Drainage System

The StarPipe drainage system is a simple yet effective solution for managing water in crawl spaces. It consists of a network of perforated pipes installed around the perimeter of the crawl space. These pipes collect excess water and channel it away from the foundation, preventing water buildup and potential damage. This system will keep the crawl space dry and reduce the risk of moisture-related issues like mold and wood rot.

Discharge Line

We installed a discharge line connected to the Triplesafe sump pump to ensure efficient water removal. The discharge line directs water from the sump pump to a safe distance away from the house, preventing it from pooling around the foundation.

Sump Pump System

The Triplesafe sump pump will keep this customer's crawl space dry by efficiently removing any water that accumulates. It has three pumps: a primary pump, a secondary pump for extra protection, and a battery-powered backup pump in case of a power outage. This ensures continuous operation and reliable water removal, preventing moisture buildup and potential damage.
