To restore this homes settling foundation, our team installed our Foundation Helical Pier System. The piers are driven deep into the ground and attached to the footing of the home. Once lift and stabilization is achieved, the pier location is filled with soil.
This Chapel Hill crawl space underwent a full transformation with the installation of helical piers and a CleanSpace vapor barrier system. The helical piers were strategically installed beneath the foundation to permanently stabilize and support the structure, addressing signs of settlement and preventing future movement. Once stabilization was complete, the crawl space was encapsulated with a CleanSpace vapor barriercreating a sealed, moisture-controlled environment. This system not only improves air quality and energy efficiency but also protects the home from mold, humidity, and structural damage.
This Chapel Hill, NC crawl space was showing symptoms of concern high moisture levels, exposed dirt, and weakened floor support. The sagging insulation and damp environment were clear signs that the crawl space was not properly sealed or supported, which can lead to mold growth, poor air quality, and uneven floors inside the home.
To solve these issues, our team installed a full encapsulation system along with SmartJack support posts to stabilize the floors above. The encapsulation sealed out ground moisture with a durable vapor barrier, while the SmartJacks provided reliable, adjustable support to address sagging beams. Together, these solutions protect the crawl space from humidity, improve energy efficiency, and restore the structural integrity of the home.
Now, this Chapel Hill crawl space is clean, dry, and structurally sound providing long-term protection and peace of mind for the homeowner.
This Chapel Hill, NC home was showing signs of foundation settlement along the exterior wall, including uneven support and concerns about long-term structural stability. Settlement often occurs when soil beneath the foundation becomes weak or shifts due to moisture changes, erosion, or poor load-bearing capacity. Left unaddressed, these conditions can lead to cracking brickwork, sticking windows or doors, and continued foundation movement.
To permanently stabilize the foundation, our team installed helical piers along the affected areas of the home. These steel piers are mechanically driven deep into stable, load-bearing soil, bypassing weak surface soils. Once secured, the piers transfer the weight of the home to solid ground, providing immediate support and helping prevent further settlement.
In Roxboro, NC, this home was showing signs of foundation trouble sloping floors near the front door, sagging support beams, and stair-step wall cracks. On top of that, the crawl space was exposed to moisture and lacked proper structural support.
To solve both the stability and moisture issues, our team installed the SmartJack® system to lift and support the floor structure, and the CleanSpace® Encapsulation System to seal and protect the crawl space environment. This durable vapor barrier prevents water intrusion, reduces humidity, and improves air quality while the SmartJacks ensure long-lasting foundation stability.
Now, the home is not only structurally sound but healthier and more energy-efficient from the ground up.
