Stabilizing A Crawlspace In Staunton, IL
A crawlspace in Staunton, Illinois, had some stabilization issues that needed to be addressed. Woods came out and installed the SmartJack System to fix these. This system consists of custom cut steel beams. They are placed in galvanized fill to equally distribute the weight of the building. They can be tightened over time which allows maintenance to be done as the ground continues to shift without requiring another costly install. With this install placed, this crawlspace will be stable for many years into the future.
