Job Feature: Raising a Sagging Floor With Foam

Foam All Eliminates a Large Gap Under a Utility Room Wall

When people think of spray foam, they often think of insulation, which is a widespread application. You may associate spray foam with concrete leveling, which we also do at Foam All Spray Foam. What you may not realize is that there are numerous uses for spray foam that many people are unaware of. Recently, Foam All undertook a project that utilized spray foam to raise a sagging floor beneath a utility room wall. You may have a situation like this at your home and have been wondering how to get it fixed so that it is safe and stable. Spray foam is the answer, and there are numerous ways we can assist you, as it is incredibly versatile.

The Utility Room Sagging Floor Repair

These jobs are so rewarding because we can transform a floor and its surrounding structure from an unstable situation to a safe and secure one. For this job, we assessed the situation and discovered a large, sagging area in the middle of the wall, where daylight was visible through the gap between the wall and the floor. Therefore, we mapped out an area that we strategically placed steel ports into drilled holes around the floor. Once the ports were in the correct position, we attached our equipment and injected the foam through the ports evenly underneath the floor. Slowly but surely, the floor met the wall, closing the gap and leveling the sag.

The Benefits of Using Spray Foam to Level a Sagging Floor

The foam that we use in a job like this is high-density polyurethane foam. This foam is made to last. It is strong, durable, and spreads out evenly underneath the sagging floor, making it structurally sound again. Other benefits include:

• Easy to apply and can typically be completed in a short time
• Moisture-resistant and tolerant
• Extremely conformable
• Environmentally responsible
• Cost-effective
