Photo Album: Cracked Walls and Uneven Floors Fixed with SmartJack Support in Mountain Home, AR

Douglas S. of Mountain Home, AR contacted us with concerns about his home’s shifting foundation. He was experiencing cracking walls and sloping floors—classic signs of structural instability. During our inspection, Douglas noted, “the walls are cracking, and the foundation has shifted.” While the subfloor appeared to be in good shape, a closer look revealed a serious issue: the shims beneath the main support beam were either crushed or entirely missing. To resolve the foundation problem and restore stability to the home, we recommended installing a system of eight SmartJack® support posts. These galvanized steel piers are engineered to permanently stabilize and, where possible, lift sagging floors. Our plan included lifting the main beam approximately a quarter inch to reduce stress on the walls and bring the floors back to level. To ensure the repair would hold up over time, we applied LumberKote, a protective coating that offers long-term peace of mind by sealing wood surfaces in the crawl space. Before work began, the homeowner cleared the crawlspace and removed the insulation, making room for a clean, efficient installation. Thanks to this proactive collaboration, we were able to install the SmartJacks precisely where they were needed for maximum impact. Now, Douglas can rest easy knowing his home is supported by a strong and reliable foundation system. Is your home showing signs of foundation trouble like cracking walls or bouncy floors?
