Foundation Stabilization in Milford, CT

A homeowner in Milford, CT had a foundation that was not properly stabilized. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have us find a solution to this issue. While on a service call, one of our Service Technicians, Mike Furlo, went into the basement to assess the issues and propose a solution that our foundation team would be able to install. 

Then it would soon be time for one of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott to work on the installation. They installed two supplemental beams to the crawlspace. This would then be supported by 6 SmartJacks. These are jacks that are installed under the supplemental beam to hold it up. Once these SmartJacks are installed, they are then tightened to ensure stability in the foundation and the floor above the crawlspace. How much they tightened the SmartJacks was up to the homeowner and how much stability they wanted. Overall, with the SmartJack system, this floor and house will stay stable and completely supported going forward.
