Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Foundation Repair in Brownsville, TN

For over three decades, Don and his wife have cherished their home in Brownsville, TN, hoping to stay there indefinitely. However, years of termite damage had taken a toll on the structure, particularly the main beams running the length of the house. Settlement issues were becoming increasingly evident, and the damage extended to the bathroom and kitchen areas, where rotting subflooring and unsupported joists further weakened the home’s foundation. Recognizing the urgency, Don took proactive steps, including removing cabinets and appliances, to prepare for comprehensive structural repairs.   To restore stability, we removed insulation from the crawlspace and replaced the compromised main beams, addressing nearly their entire length except for a few undamaged sections. The bathroom required additional reinforcement due to changing joist directions and unsupported sections, while the subfloor, showing multiple layers of rot, was carefully replaced. The kitchen’s affected areas were also repaired to ensure a seamless and durable foundation. Throughout the home, we sistered several 2x8 joists, including a broken one between the main beams and others in the back bedroom, reinforcing weak points and improving overall structural integrity.   To further enhance stability, we installed strategic SmartJacks™ crawl space support jacks and support beams across key areas, lifting and leveling the structure while aiming to close gaps above the kitchen cabinets. The dining room, kitchen, living room, and back bedroom all received additional stabilization, ensuring long-term durability. To complete the job, we applied LumberKote™ for added protection, safeguarding the home against future issues.
