Foundation Repair- Moncton, NB
Challenge
In Moncton, New Brunswick, a homeowner reached out to Ridgeback Basement Systems with concerns about a sagging floor. Upon initial contact, our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled an appointment for a comprehensive home inspection. This assessment was conducted by one of our seasoned System Design Specialists from the Sales Team, who expertly diagnosed the underlying structural issue: weakened floor joists had led to the unsettling floor sag.
Solution
To address this, we recommended the installation of our PowerBrace and SmartJack systems, both renowned for their effectiveness in foundation and structural repair. Our adept production team, consisting of a foreman and skilled installers, arrived on-site equipped with the necessary tools and expertise. We began by customizing zinc-plated steel beams for the PowerBrace system to exactly fit the basement’s height, using sturdy brackets to anchor these beams securely. This not only stabilized the foundation walls but also laid the groundwork for reversing any potential wall failure over time. Concurrently, the SmartJack system was skillfully installed to support and lift the weak crawl space beams and floor joists. By setting galvanized steel columns on a robust foundation, we effectively redistributed the home's weight to prevent further degradation. These columns, adjustable through their heavy-duty threaded rods, promptly addressed the sag, thereby elevating the floors to their intended position. Upon completion, our crew ensured the site was pristine, leaving the homeowner not only reassured but confident in the effectiveness and durability of the solution. The professional execution of this project exemplified the reliable, long-lasting solutions that Ridgeback Basement Systems provides, solidifying our reputation as experts in foundation repair and structural reinforcement.
