Pier And Beam Repair

Here at The Crack Guys, we specialize in repairing pier and beam foundations and solving the floor problems that come with them. If your home in Alabama or Tennessee has uneven floors, sticking doors or sagging areas, your post and beam system may be to blame. Our experienced team uses durable materials and strategic repairs to restore stability — without disrupting your daily routine.

Whether you’re dealing with deteriorating beams or floor structures weakened by moisture, we offer trusted foundation repair solutions designed to protect your home’s structure from the ground up.

What Causes Pier And Beam Foundation Problems?

Pier and beam homes rely on a network of wooden posts, beams and joists to support your floors and distribute your home’s weight. Over time, several factors can compromise this system:

• Cracked or rotting support beams
• Settling or leaning piers
• Shifting soils or poor drainage
• Crawl space moisture and humidity
• Subpar original construction or outdated materials

When a single part of this system weakens, the stress gets redistributed — often showing up as sloping floors, wall cracks or stuck doors. That’s where our team steps in with proven solutions like cracked beam repair and post and beam replacement.

Signs You Need Pier And Beam Floor Repair

If you’re seeing signs of structural trouble but aren’t sure what’s causing them, it could be time to take a closer look underneath. Here are common signs your pier and beam floor system might need professional help:

• Wall or floor cracks
• Objects rattle as you walk by
• Uneven or sloping floors
• Gaps between hardwood planks
• Doors and windows that stick or won’t latch
• Bouncy or creaky floors

We install custom-built Samson Floor Supports to reinforce sagging floors and bring your home back to level. Each one is tailored to your property’s specific support needs.

5 Common Floor Structure Problems

If you have foundation problems or moisture in your crawl space, your floor system is at a greater risk of failure.

Moisture In Your Crawl Space

This issue is detrimental to your health and the structural integrity of your home. High levels of moisture can weaken wooden beams, introduce pest problems, promote mold growth and more. Wood rot repair is vital for restoring the safety and comfort of your space.

Wall Cracks

Appearing above doors, trim or windows, these cracks are telltale signs of structural concerns. When your floor loses stability, the walls holding up your home weaken as well. Subflooring repair can relevel your house support, realigning your walls and eliminating cracks.

Sticking Doors And Windows

Doors or windows that are difficult to open or close are caused by your frames becoming misaligned. These problems can arise due to settlement as the floor structure shifts under your house. Floor repair services bring your home back to an even level, allowing your doors and windows to function as designed.

Uneven And Sloping Floors

If a small object – like a pencil or marble – rolls across the room when dropped, you have a sloped floor. This issue provides significant insight into structural settlement. The presence of a slope suggests that the foundation has settled unevenly, potentially compromising the stability of the structure.

Saggy, Wavy Or Bouncy Floors

Your floor should not bounce or give when you walk across it. It should also lie flat from room to room. If not, this is a direct consequence of structural settlement, requiring prompt assessment and resolution.

By recognizing and addressing these common floor structure problems, you can proactively safeguard your property and ensure its long-term stability.
