Old farmhouses and new builds both sag out here, one from soft wood and one from settling fill.
Kathleen has a wide mix of housing, and the sagging floors split along the same line. Older farmhouses have framing that has spent decades above damp ground, so the wood itself has gone soft where it bears. Newer subdivision homes have solid framing on piers that have settled into graded fill.
There is no storm drainage on most of these properties, so water that falls stays in the soil around the house. That keeps crawl space ground damp year round, which is what softens wood in the older homes and what accelerates settlement in the newer ones.
We diagnose with a level and a probe before proposing anything. Then failed members get replaced, sound spans get sistered, and adjustable supports go in on new footings taken to ground that will hold. Lifting is gradual, and the moisture side gets handled so the repair has a dry environment to sit in.
Every Kathleen home gets the same sagging floor repair scope, and the written price says exactly what that covers.
