Structural issues in your crawl space or basement don’t just affect the floors beneath your feet. They also impact the safety, air quality, and long-term integrity of your entire home.
Greenserve specializes in solving the root causes of structural damage, not just covering up symptoms. Our services fix everything from wood rot and sagging floors to cracking walls and failing foundations, ensuring your Charlotte, NC home stays strong for years to come.
Why Structural Repairs Matter
If you’re noticing squeaking floors, wall cracks, or musty odors from below your home, there’s a good chance that moisture has already begun damaging its structural components. And in North Carolina, where humidity and water intrusion are common, these issues can worsen quickly.
Unlike companies that only encapsulate crawl spaces or “patch” problem areas, Greenserve repairs the actual structural components, replacing deteriorated wood and reinforcing weakened support systems so your home is truly safe and stable.
Common Structural Problems We Fix
Homeowners often first notice structural concerns through small but telling signs:
- Squeaking, sagging, or bouncy floors, especially during winter when wood shrinks
- Caving floors (such as when heavy objects cause the floor to give way)
- Cracks in walls
- Musty smells from the crawl space
- Visible wood rot or moisture damage in your crawl space
Structural issues almost always stem from excess moisture, drainage problems, or improper past repair work. But Greenserve’s team of local home superheroes is here to help!
Greenserve’s Structural Repair Solutions
1. Floor Joist, Beam, and Girder Repair & Replacement
Moisture-damaged wood is one of the most common problems in Charlotte-area crawl spaces. Depending on the extent of damage, we may:
- Sister or reinforce floor joists
- Repair partially deteriorated wood
- Fully replace main beams, girders, or joists
- Restore structural alignment to eliminate sagging and squeaking
We don’t leave deteriorated wood behind. Instead, we remove it and rebuild correctly, unlike many competitors.
2. Installation of Additional Structural Support
When floors need reinforcement, we install floor jacks or masonry columns or piers. We partner with state-licensed engineers to design the proper support system, ensuring long-term stability and safety.
3. Moisture & Water Management to Prevent Future Damage
Structural repairs alone won’t last unless the underlying moisture problem is fixed. Moisture is the root cause behind squeaking floors, rot, and cracking walls.
Greenserve repairs structural damage and tackles the moisture issues that caused it through:
- Crawl space drainage or sump pump installation
- Water proofing
- Crawl space encapsulation
- Ventilation system installation
Our approach prevents repeat damage and protects your investment.
