This homeowner contacted Americrawl after discovering signs of structural damage in their crawl space, including sagging floors and visible wood deterioration. During our detailed inspection, it became clear that several key structural components—such as floor joists, sill plates, rim joists and center beams —had suffered damage due to prolonged exposure to moisture and age-related wear.
To restore the home’s structural integrity, Americrawl’s crew performed comprehensive structural wood repairs. Damaged wood members were carefully removed and replaced with treated lumber designed to resist rot and future deterioration. In some areas, additional supports and sistered joists were installed to reinforce the framing and redistribute weight across the crawl space. These repairs brought the floors back to a level position and provided lasting stability for the structure above.
In addition to the structural repairs, the homeowner also needed a secure and reliable entry point to the crawl space. The existing access was deteriorated and no longer functional, so a new crawl space access door was custom-installed. Built with durability in mind, the new door is weather-resistant and tightly sealed to prevent outside air, water, and pests from entering the crawl space. It also allows for easier future inspections and maintenance.
