Stabilizing A Crawlspace In Bement, IL

A crawlspace in Bement, Illinois, needed some stabilization as well as a resealing. To address these, Woods first resealed the area with the CleanSpace System. This consists of a thin but durable sheet of material that is placed on the walls and ground. It effectively creates a barrier between the earth and the home, providing protection from insects, humidity, and water. The second install was for the stability of the crawlspace. The SmartJack System was installed to offer more support. This system consists of custom cut steel beams. They are placed in galvanized fill to equally distribute the weight of the building. They can be tightened over time. This allows maintenance to be done as the ground continues to shift without requiring another costly install. With these two installs in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their crawlspace will be dry and stable for decades to come.
