A homeowner in Royal Oak, MI began to notice signs of foundation settlement in their home. Concerned about the condition of the house and not wanting the issue to worsen, they reached out to HomeSpec for help. HomeSpec’s senior project manager, Mark, was sent to inspect the residence.
After a thorough evaluation, Mark confirmed the foundation settlement. He assured the homeowner that HomeSpec could solve the problem and proposed a repair plan. Mark recommended installing the SmartJack® Crawl Space Support System—a foundation support system placed in the crawl space beneath the sinking floors. This system provides solid, reliable support to help restore the home’s stability and levelness. The homeowner agreed to the installation, and a team from HomeSpec, led by Jon, promptly completed the project. After the repair was finished, the homeowner was relieved to have a strong, dependable foundation and happy to be worry-free again.

A homeowner in Troy, MI reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair after struggling with the effects of their crawl space and foundation. There was trouble closing doors and windows and cracks appeared in the drywall. A musty smell was also permeating the home. After reaching out for help, one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers, Zach, went to the home to conduct a free inspection. The homeowner accompanied Zach into the crawl space where they quickly became concerned. They were shocked to discover the main beam was tilted and only had two over-used wooden posts supporting it.
Zach took detailed notes of the condition and measurements so he could develop a repair plan with the homeowner. He proposed that HomeSpec install SmartJack® support posts along the main beam as well as an additional supplemental beam. After supporting the home, then the crew would be able to encapsulate the crawl space using a CleanSpace® vapor barrier to combat the musty smells from returning. The homeowner agreed to this repair plan and was happy when the project was completed.
