Crawl Space Foundation Stabilization
in North Dakota and Minnesota
Settling columns and sagging crawl space beams and floor joists are a problem that begins in the crawl space but extends throughout the entire home. As weak foundation soils begin to shift and settle with changes in density and moisture content, the structural supports of the crawl space can begin to show damage, and as they sag, they can take the upper floors with them. And in crawl spaces especially, excess humidity will often lead to mold, rot, and moisture damage that can weaken the home's support system over time.
Sagging floors above a crawl space can cause many problems upstairs.
Concrete columns are an inadequate solution for crawl space repair. These supports are not adjustable and will need to be shimmied at a later date to ensure a proper structural repair. They provide a time-consuming solution, requiring a waiting period as the concrete cures. That will not be able to left the floors and walls back to their original position, and ultimately additional damage will be likely to occur.
Crawl space piers correct this problem and restore a home’s integrity.
