Foundation Repair - Settling Columns Causing Sagging Floors in Fisher, IL
The floors in this Fisher, IL home were sagging and uneven. In the crawl space, the existing cement columns were settling due to weak soil conditions. This had formed a gap between the tops of the columns and the bottoms of the girders they were supporting. The girders sagged due to the lack of support which in turn caused the floors above to sag. The homeowner had tried to fix this problem by wedging wood blocks into the gap to support the girders. This didn't address the underlying settlement issue so the gaps just kept reappearing. In situations like these, Woods recommends the SmartJack floor support system to keep floors level.
