Foundation Repair Photo Album: SmartJacks Reinforce a Sinking Mount Vernon, IL Crawl Space

This homeowner from Mount Vernon, Illinois, noticed that the main floor in her room was sinking. System design specialist, Todd G., worked with Judy to designed a customized plan that would stabilize and level her crawl space ceiling. Head foreman, Chris S., worked with his team to install several SmartJacks around the crawl space. SmartJacks are a permanent stabilizer that supports and levels the foundation. Thanks to Team Woods, Judy now has a stable and level foundation!
