Trusted Foundation & Crawl Space Repair Experts in North Little Rock, AR

Joyce A. of North Little Rock, AR reached out to us after noticing water intrusion along the perimeter wall of a recently enclosed carport addition. The problem originated from a stone pathway installed after the addition was completed—its elevation sat about three inches above the existing wall, allowing water to seep behind it and saturate the wooden studs. Despite the pathway sloping away from the home, the design flaw led to excessive moisture buildup. Joyce also reported a noticeable floor slope toward a crawlspace addition at the rear of the home, prompting a full structural and waterproofing assessment.

Upon inspection, our team found elevated moisture levels and mold within a 16x20 crawlspace. The main beam was slightly offset in the center, creating structural stress, and the back wall appeared unlevel from the original build—though there were no signs of exterior settlement. To correct the issues, we proposed installing a 12-foot trench drain across the front of the addition for maximum water diversion, with a NexusPro seal along the adjacent perimeter to block residual seepage. LumberKote would be applied both inside and outside the add-on wall (2 feet up) and throughout the entire crawlspace to protect the structure from further water damage. Joyce’s contractor committed to removing siding and repairing a small section of rotten plywood before our installation.

To address the structural concerns, we installed two SmartJacks and a 10-foot supplemental beam on either side of the offset main beam to stabilize the floor and eliminate the sag toward the crawlspace door. Aesthetic considerations were balanced with function, and Joyce was flexible on the trench drain discharge routing and minor fence adjustments needed for drainage. With this comprehensive solution in place, Joyce’s addition and crawlspace are now protected from water and structural threats.

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.

A recent home addition turned problematic when Joyce reported water intrusion along a perimeter wall. The issue stemmed from a stone pathway installed several inches above the original wall line, allowing water to seep in behind the masonry and saturate the wooden studs. Though the pathway was graded away from the home, the elevated placement created a direct route for moisture intrusion. Compounding the issue, Joyce also noted an uneven floor slope in the back crawlspace addition, raising concerns about structural integrity.

Upon inspection, the crawlspace measured 16x20 feet with a central beam slightly offset, contributing to sagging along the west side of the residence. While there was no evidence of exterior foundation settlement, elevated moisture levels and visible mold were present, indicating long-term exposure. To address the problems, the crew installed a 12-foot trench drain across the add-on’s entrance, sealed off vulnerable wall sections using NexusPro, and applied LumberKote to both interior and exterior walls for advanced moisture protection. The crawlspace was further stabilized with two SmartJacks and a 10-foot supplemental beam installed on both sides of the main beam, effectively correcting the slope and reinforcing the structure.

This project not only resolved active water intrusion and structural sag, but also protected the home against future moisture damage.
