Foundation and Crawlspace Repair Restores a Settling Union City Home

Crawlspace Moisture and Settlement Challenges in Union City, TN

When longtime homeowner Sally C. began noticing her floors sagging and musty odors filling her Union City, TN home, she knew something was wrong beneath the surface. The house, built in the 1950s, had served her family for generations, but years of settling and neglected maintenance had taken their toll. After her husband’s passing, Sally was determined to restore the stability and comfort of the home she planned to stay in for the rest of her life. A professional inspection revealed foundation settlement in the back half of the home and significant moisture buildup in the crawlspace—issues that could threaten both the structure and the indoor air quality if left unresolved.

SmartJack Installation and Crawlspace Encapsulation Restore Structural Integrity

To correct the foundation problems, our experts installed two SmartJack® steel support posts and 10 feet of supplemental beam, stabilizing the sagging floors and preventing further settlement. The team also performed a complete crawlspace encapsulation system, removing debris and sealing the space to eliminate excess humidity and odors. Despite the tight 22-inch crawlspace height and challenging ductwork, our crew ensured full coverage and access. A new interior drainage system was added along the front and side of the home, channeling water to a sump pump strategically placed near the addition. For improved insulation and moisture control, we applied SilverGlo™ rigid foam panels to the concrete section of the former patio area, creating an airtight thermal barrier that enhances energy efficiency.

Long-Term Foundation Protection and Peace of Mind for the Future

These combined foundation repair and crawlspace waterproofing solutions transformed Sally’s aging home into a stable, dry, and energy-efficient living space. The SmartJack system now provides lasting structural support, while the encapsulation and drainage systems prevent future moisture damage and improve indoor air quality. By addressing the root causes of settlement and humidity, Sally’s home is now protected for decades to come—restoring both its value and her peace of mind.
