Problem:
Uneven floors on the Main Level
Symptoms:
- Humps and valleys in the floor
- Has fine cracks above interior doors
- Doors not closing properly
- Sagging joists
Cause:
- Center joist beam has dropped due to insufficient number of columns or insufficient footings under columns
- Perimeter foundation settlement
- Dropped footings are evidenced by horizontal stair step cracks in foundation wall
Solution:
Floor Leveling
Blue Canyon lifts fallen beam(s) to as near level as practical
and stabilizes with telescopic Adjusta-Columns.
This procedure will do one of two things for a homeowner; level the floor or stabilize the floor. We will not always be able to bring the home back to a perfect level. We are trying to undo what years of gravity and poor construction have done to a home in a very short period of time.
For sagging joists, we can add additional beams and stabilizers and bring floors to a more usable condition.
