Foundation Problems Photo Album: Cracks in Ceiling Progressively Getting Worse, Saugus, MA
This homeowner in Saugus Massachusetts was experiencing cracking in their Ceilings on the main floor and on the upstairs floor. For about a year the homeowners watched the cracks get bigger and bigger. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection.
A design specialist arrived at the home and inspected the home. He found that the cause of the cracks in the ceiling was caused by inadequate supports in the basement. Kenny recommended replacing the supports with SmartJacks.
