Crawlspace Repair- Middle Sackville, NS
Challenge
Recently, we at Ridgeback Basement Systems had the privilege of transforming a concerning situation for a homeowner in Middle Sackville, NS, into a victory against the elements. Our client noticed unsettling signs of foundation distress along one side of their house, particularly around the area where their crawl space and sunroom connect. Telltale cracks in the drywall and a back door that resisted closure signaled something was amiss, potentially worsened by known drainage challenges on the property.
Solution
The journey toward remediation began with a call to our Customer Care team, swiftly setting the stage for one of our expert System Design Specialists to tackle the problem head-on. Upon clear identification of the house's foundational dip due to crawl space instability, our specialist recommended implementing our SmartJack solution — a prudent, proven approach to lifting and stabilizing distressed foundations. Our production team, equipped with top-tier knowledge and tools, embarked on the project, starting by meticulously prepping the work area to ensure a swift, seamless process. Installation of the SmartJack system was carefully executed, targeting the compromised supports and gradually elevating the structure to its original stance. Their attention to detail during this process and the post-installation cleanup showcased our commitment to not just solving home issues but ensuring the homeowner's life remains undisrupted. The outcome was as practical as it was reassuring. Within days, the noticeable dips began to correct, mirrored by disappearing drywall cracks and a back door regaining its seamless swing.
