I home in Arroyo Grande, Ca. was seeing symptoms of foundation failure. The home was built in 2001 and the current homeowner had lived there since 2008. They started noticing sagging floors over the past year and wanted to know what they could do to fix it. They were worried about the integrity of their flooring due to the slope. Before calling Saber, they had tried small patches and other fixes and nothing worked. After Saber's Project Design Specialist performed a manometer reading and full inspection of their large crawlspace, it was determined that a SmartJack support system and supplemental support beams would be required in order to raise the main floors back to level and support them, keeping them from further sagging. There was also a center wall that was receiving no support from the sagging floor. After the installation of the SmartJacks, they acted as a new girder beam in between existing girder beams. The existing beams had been poorly spaced, causing the floor above to begin to sag over time without proper support.
