Basement Waterproofing Professionals in Pocahontas, AR

Structural Problems Identified During Inspection

Kathy M.’s home in Pocahontas, AR was experiencing significant structural stress due to an over-span between the main beam and the foundation walls. With two main beam piers completely missing, the floor system lacked the support required to distribute weight safely. A short line of aging wooden support beams also needed removal, and the crawl space showed widespread mold growth along the subfloor. The inspection further revealed signs of over-jacking from previous attempts at repair, which contributed to uneven floor lines and a pronounced hump in the living room.

SmartJack Support System Installed for Permanent Structural Stability

To correct these issues, the team installed a full line of five SmartJacks along the front section of the crawl space, supported by engineered footing bases designed to handle both the load of the home and future soil movement. Two additional stand-alone SmartJacks were installed beneath the main beam where piers were missing, providing a direct replacement with more reliable performance than traditional concrete blocks or wooden posts. SmartJacks are galvanized, adjustable steel columns rated for high compressive loads, allowing the crew to precisely lift and re-level the weakened floor system. During installation, the team corrected areas that had been previously over-jacked, successfully reducing floor unevenness and eliminating the hump in the living room.

LumberKote Mold Protection and Long-Term Crawl Space Restoration

With structural stability restored, the entire crawl space was treated with LumberKote, a protective wood coating designed to inhibit mold growth and moisture-related wood decay. Given the “good bit” of mold present on the subfloor, this treatment was essential for preventing future deterioration and improving the home’s indoor air quality. LumberKote bonds directly to the wood fibers, creating a long-lasting barrier that resists mold, rot, and humidity damage—key for homes with ongoing moisture concerns. The combination of SmartJack stabilization and LumberKote protection delivered a comprehensive, durable solution that left the customer extremely satisfied with the results.

Jimmy B. noticed that the steps outside of his home were uneven. He knew that this exterior concrete issue would only get worse if left unattended. He gave Redeemers Group a call and we were more than happy to help him with this issue.

To resolve this issue, installed the PolyLeve®l system which uses high-density polyurethane expanding foam to raise settled concrete foundations and slabs. The state-of-the-art polymer injection is a fast-acting, affordable alternative to mudjacking and concrete slab replacement.

Installers use specially-designed equipment to inject structural-grade polymer into penny-sized holes bored in the slab. After the void underneath the concrete slab is filled, the expanding foam will lift and level the slab. PolyLevel® is a quick-curing solution and the polymer is waterproof and will never wash away.

Jimmy B. was very happy with the results and has no issues with the exterior concrete.
