Foundation Stabilized in Corinth, MS
Gabriel and Emily of Corinth, MS recently moved into their home and quickly discovered structural concerns beneath their floors. During a routine plumbing and flooring repair, they noticed a large hole in the crawlspace, posing a serious risk to the main support beam. The existing support columns on either side of the hole were in danger of shifting, which could lead to significant floor damage or collapse. Additionally, moisture buildup and mold growth under the home raised concerns about long-term structural integrity and air quality. To prevent further deterioration and costly repairs in the future, encapsulation was recommended as a necessary solution.
To address these issues, the repair plan involved installing two SmartJacks™ and a 10-foot beam to reinforce the main structure. The sinkhole beneath the home was filled with white rock, along with existing bricks and concrete blocks found in the crawlspace. Old support pillars in the affected area were removed to ensure stability. Before encapsulation could begin, Gabriel and Emily were advised to remove obstructive ductwork that was limiting access to key areas. Once cleared, insulation and moisture barriers would be installed to seal the space, preventing future mold and wood rot. SilverGlo™ insulation was applied only to the remaining exposed crawlspace walls, while the sump pump was strategically placed for optimal drainage control.
With these repairs completed, Gabriel and Emily’s home is now protected from foundation failure and moisture-related damage. They no longer have to worry about costly structural repairs or persistent mold issues in the future.
