Crawl Space Stabilizers – Restore Sagging Floors and Structural Support
Are your floors sagging, bouncy, or uneven? You may be experiencing structural issues caused by failing supports beneath your home. At Force Basements, we install heavy-duty crawl space stabilizers that strengthen your foundation and prevent further damage.
Whether caused by wood rot, poor construction, or high moisture levels, our crawl space stabilizer systems provide long-term reinforcement for your home’s floor system.
How Force Basements Solves the Problem with Crawl Space Stabilizers
We use engineered steel crawl space stabilizers to lift, support, and secure floor joists, girders, and beams in weakened or aging crawl spaces.
1. Crawl Space Inspection
We evaluate your crawl space for wood rot, moisture, existing supports, and floor movement. We measure deflection and identify problem zones.
2. Moisture & Structural Assessment
Before installing stabilizers, we address underlying issues such as:
3. Install Crawl Space Stabilizers
We place heavy-duty steel posts and adjustable jacks beneath failing joists or beams. Each stabilizer is installed on a concrete base or pier for permanent strength.
4. Adjust & Secure
Once in place, we gently adjust each stabilizer to lift sagging areas (when appropriate) and provide uniform, long-term support.
5. Follow-Up Protection
We may recommend ongoing moisture control or insulation to prevent future weakening.
Why Crawl Space Stabilizers Are Important
Your crawl space holds up your entire home. If it weakens, everything above it starts to shift. Installing crawl space stabilizers protects:
-
Floors from sagging or dipping

Walls and ceilings from cracking or separating

Doors from sticking or misaligning

Wood framing from worsening stress or decay
-
The resale value and safety of your home

FAQs About Crawl Space Stabilizers
Are crawl space stabilizers permanent?
Yes. When installed properly, they provide long-term or permanent support — especially when moisture issues are addressed at the same time.
Can stabilizers lift sagging floors?
Yes — in many cases, stabilizers can lift floors back into position. In other cases, they prevent further movement without full lifting.
Do stabilizers work with encapsulated crawl spaces?
Absolutely. They can be installed before or after encapsulation and are often part of a full crawl space solution.
