Before tackling this project in Utica, NY, our team faced a basement and foundation that wasn't just unstable but had been incorrectly stabilized by a previous contractor. Understandably, this left the homeowner seeking a real solution. As you can see in our before photo, the damage was significant. We introduced Carbon Armor and PowerBrace systems, designed not just for temporary fixes but for lasting security. Notice in the after photos how these products have transformed an unstable foundation into the solid base it was meant to be. Reliability and a proactive approach set us apart, ensuring each customer's home stands strong for years to come.
Cindy has been living in her Holland Patent, NY home for 20 years. Recently, she has become increasingly concerned over the structural integrity of her home as the metal support beams in her garage are significantly rusted. As her bedroom is located above the garage and consequently held up by the beams, Cindy wanted to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and decided to contact Woodford Bros. for a free estimate for the necessary repairs. After an initial inspection, our Design Specialist determined that the SmartJack system would be best suited to help repair the damaged beams.
The SmartJack system provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Once installed, SmartJack support posts can correct problems such as sloping and overly springy floors, interior wall cracks, and out-of-level door frames. SmartJacks can support loads of more than 60,000 lbs and are made of galvanized steel for corrosion resistance. With the SmartJack system in place, Cindy can have the peace of mind that her home is permanently stabilized.
Carol from Watertown, NY had Woodford Bros., Inc. replace part of her foundation that was old and no longer stabilizing her home. Woodford Bros., Inc. replaced the old foundation and laid new cement blocks.
Kathleen has a 100 year old farmhouse in Remsen, NY. Her floors were uneven for years and seemed to be getting worse. Cracks started showing up in the drywall, windows were not closing properly and she could feel it every time she walked through her kitchen.
She called Woodford Brothers after hearing about us from a trusted friend. Our Customer Care Department set her up with an inspection with our Design Specialist, Bobby. He performed a thorough inspection, then developed a proposal for Kathleen. Kathleen decided to fix the problem for good so Bobby set her up with an installation date with our crew foreman, Jay.
Now Kathleen has floors that are stabilized permanently with our Smart Jack system and peace of mind that the problem is taken care of.
