Pier and beam foundations need careful, specialized adjustments to keep a home level and supported. Over time wooden beams can deteriorate, piers can shift and shims can compress, and any of these can contribute to uneven floors.

Floor and support concerns

These can have causes that have nothing to do with the supports, which is why we start by looking under the house.

  • Floors that slope, feel uneven or feel bouncy
  • Doors and windows that stick
  • Gaps between walls and floors
  • Cracks in brick or interior walls

Crawl-space evaluation

We inspect the crawl space and evaluate the condition of the piers, beams and supports under the floor, and photograph what we find.

  • Piers that have shifted
  • Shims that have compressed
  • Wooden beams that have deteriorated

Repair scope

We relevel the structure by adjusting or replacing components as needed, such as piers, shims and beams. Exactly what is adjusted or replaced depends on what the crawl-space inspection finds, and your written estimate lays it out.

What to expect, and what this service does not cover

  • Releveling aims to improve floor support and reduce unevenness. We cannot promise a perfectly level floor, particularly in older homes.
  • Older raised homes commonly have some natural variation in their floors. We will talk through what is realistic for yours.
  • Repairs to flooring, drywall and trim are separate from the foundation work.

Pier & Beam Foundation Repair & Leveling questions

How is pier and beam work different from slab repair?

Pier and beam homes sit above a crawl space, so the work is done underneath the house on the piers, shims and beams that support the floor. Slab homes have no crawl space and are repaired differently.

What do you check during the inspection?

We inspect the crawl space and evaluate the condition of the piers, beams and supports, and photograph what we find.

What causes floors to become uneven on a pier and beam home?

Over time wooden beams can deteriorate, piers can shift and shims can compress. Any of these can contribute to uneven floors and added stress on the structure.

What do you adjust or replace?

We relevel the structure by adjusting or replacing components as needed, such as piers, shims and beams. What that means for your home depends on what the crawl-space inspection shows.

Will releveling fix a bouncy floor?

Bouncy floors can have several causes. If the supports under the floor have shifted, compressed or deteriorated, adjusting or replacing them may help. We can tell you more once we have looked under the house.
