Severe Crawlspace Damage Was Causing Dangerous Floor Sagging
Jennifer H.’s home in Lonoke, Arkansas suffered from significant crawlspace-related structural issues that resulted in sagging, unlevel floors throughout the house. Multiple past contractors had attempted repairs, but the underlying problems were never properly addressed. The home had two layers of subflooring—the original layer was severely rotted, with OSB installed over it—and the floor joists were in rough condition. A failing full-length main beam, combined with years of uneven settlement the homeowners referred to as the “roller coaster” effect, caused doors to shift, floors to slope, and the structure to become increasingly unstable.
A Full-Length Main Beam Replacement and Precision Lifting Solved the Problem
The solution involved replacing the full-length main beam from beneath the home, a critical advantage because the beam was a flyover design and accessible through a reasonably tall crawlspace. Using the SmartJack® support system, the team stabilized and lifted the structure with precision, achieving up to 3 inches of lift on one side of the home and 2¼ inches on the other. Additional SmartJacks were installed in the beam replacement area to allow controlled movement and fine-tuning. The floors were carefully adjusted to the level that best aligned with the healthier upper subfloor layer, balancing structural correction with the homeowner’s request to minimize cosmetic damage and maintain door functionality.
Proper Crawlspace Methods Ensured Long-Term Structural Integrity
The success of this project depended on using the correct crawlspace repair methods rather than surface-level fixes. Working entirely from underneath preserved the home’s interior while addressing the true structural failures at their source. Despite a minor plumbing incident involving a damaged two-inch pipe, the installation progressed smoothly and delivered excellent stabilization results. The SmartJack system allowed precise control over lift and load distribution, ensuring the home was leveled according to the homeowner’s goals rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all solution. The result was a safer, more stable foundation and a homeowner who was confident the repair would protect their investment for decades to come.

This Searcy, Arkansas concrete repair project involved lifting and sealing cracked slabs in the garage, driveway, and walkway using Redeemers Group’s warranty-backed 3-Part Concrete Protection System (CPS).
Long-Standing Concrete Cracks Threatened Home Value and Safety
For over twenty years, homeowner Norm S. of Searcy, AR had lived with worsening concrete damage across his property. Immediately following construction in 2004, the garage and driveway slabs developed fractures, and the original builder went bankrupt before completing promised repairs. Over time, additional trip hazards in the walkway emerged and a driveway section began retaining water, causing further stress. Concerned about safety, curb appeal, and resale issues, Norm sought a durable solution.
Comprehensive Concrete Repair Using Proven Methods
During a full inspection, our team meticulously mapped every crack, settlement point, and drainage issue across the driveway, garage, walkway, and rear patio. We then recommended the Concrete Protection System (CPS)—a method integrating slab lift, crack sealing, and surface protection. Norm accepted full repairs for the driveway and walkways and a 2-part repair in the garage. Our crew executed the work with precision, leveling slabs, eliminating uneven joints, and sealing all cracks. The finished surfaces were stable, safe, and visually restored, leaving the homeowner extremely satisfied.
Permanent Solutions Protect Your Home Investment
By resolving root causes instead of applying temporary fixes, we secured Norm’s concrete so future cracking and settlement are far less likely. The enhancements improved the property’s curb appeal and long-term value, giving Norm confidence and peace of mind.
