What it is, and why it matters.
A floor that bounces, slopes or squeaks is telling you something about the framing underneath. The cause may be cut or overloaded joists, a failing beam or post, moisture damage, or an undersized span from the day it was built.
We inspect from above and below, find the cause, and repair it with sistered joists, new beams, adjustable posts or subfloor replacement, and we help you deal with moisture so the problem does not return.
Four things done right.

We repair the framing, not just the surface.

Floor Framing and Joist Repair: common questions
Why is my floor bouncy?
Common causes include joists that are too small or spaced too wide for the span, notches cut for plumbing or wiring, rot or insect damage, and a failing support beam.
Can sagging floors be leveled?
Often yes, using new or adjusted supports and sistered joists. Very old or badly damaged framing may call for replacement of sections.
