Reynolds Contracting offers general contracting services in the Central Virginia area. We specialize in earthwork, foundation repair, hardscaping, and more. Proudly serving as the AB Chance certified dealer for this area, our highly trained crews provide innovative foundation repair solutions for a variety of needs. On a recent project, we installed adjustable steel crawlspace columns to replace existing concrete & wooden columns in a Crozet home.
Crawlspaces present several challenges, even under the best circumstances. The clearance size can vary greatly, and tight conditions can make work very difficult. Insulation, rocks, and other obstacles further complicate the available workspace. That’s why we like using a product called StrongPostTM. This heavy-duty column support is designed to fit any crawlspace, while providing 25 tons of ultimate capacity. For this particularly tight crawlspace, it was a struggle to get the materials and equipment in the correct place. StrongPostTM was a great solution.
As Central Virginia’s AB Chance certified dealer, we offer the industry’s highest quality materials for foundation repairs. Made of the same strong galvanized steel of our helical shafts, StrongPostTM provides permanent stability for your crawlspace. This product is corrosion resistant, termite-proof, and adjustable for any crawlspace height.
Here we installed two poly bases and StrongPostTM kits under the main beam of the house, one post at the crawlspace entrance. Under the kitchen we installed a long beam with 2 supports to reinforce a high-traffic area within the home. StrongPostTM installation is also faster, labor-saving, and less intrusive than other methods. In less than a week we improved the structure of the home for many years to come.
Another benefit of StrongPostTM installation is that it’s not usually weather-dependent. As fall and winter settle in, don’t hesitate to address your crawlspace and foundation needs!
