Sagging Floors Stabilized with SmartJackĀ® System in North Little Rock, AR
Felicia T. of North Little Rock, AR, contacted us with serious concerns about sagging and bouncing floors on the left side of her home, particularly in the dining room and bathroom areas. Upon inspection, we discovered that the home’s crawlspace was retaining water due to a malfunctioning dehumidifier and the absence of a condensate pump. The structure itself was only supported by a single main beam and four support piers—an insufficient setup for long-term stability and safety.
To correct the issue, we recommended our SmartJack® system to reinforce the failing floor structure. The plan involved installing two SmartJacks and 10 feet of steel beam beneath the dining room and bathroom, and another set of SmartJacks and beam under the bedroom wall adjacent to the bathroom. Due to limited funds, Felicia was only able to stabilize one half of the home for now, with plans to complete the rest of the work at a later date. An unexpected need for soil footing plates added to the project cost, as they are essential for proper support in certain crawlspace conditions.
Understanding the budget constraints, we collaborated with the homeowner to make the project feasible. By discounting $250 per soil footing plate, we helped bring the total cost within a manageable range. Despite the added expense, Felicia chose to move forward with the partial stabilization, ensuring the most compromised areas were secured.
