Sagging Floor Repair for Milledgeville homeowners
In Milledgeville the sagging floors we work on are often in houses two centuries old. Antebellum and Victorian homes on original brick pier foundations, where the settlement has accumulated slowly over a very long period and nobody alive remembers the floor being flat.
The causes are the same as anywhere, working over a longer timescale. Red clay on rolling ground sends runoff toward the low side of a lot, the ground near the Oconee stays damp year round, and masonry standing in wet ground loses mortar. Once a pier stops carrying evenly, the girder above drops and the floor follows.
Work on a house this old is deliberately conservative. We probe the framing and replace only what has actually failed, rebuild pier courses with matching brick and soft mortar on new footings, and lift very slowly over days. Recovering every fraction of an inch is rarely the goal. Stabilizing it and gaining back what the finishes can tolerate is.
Here is what our sagging floor repair work includes on a Milledgeville home, in town or out toward the Baldwin County line.
