Beam pockets are recessed areas within a foundation wall designed to support beams that span across the structure. These beams distribute loads and provide essential support for floors, ceilings, and roofs. Over time, beam pockets can deteriorate due to various factors such as moisture infiltration, settling foundations, or general wear and tear. Proper maintenance and timely repairs are crucial to maintaining the structural integrity of your home. At Acculift, we understand the importance of addressing these issues promptly. Our team of experts, with decades of experience, is equipped with advanced tools and techniques to diagnose and repair beam pockets effectively. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and commitment to ensuring your home remains safe and secure. Don't wait until minor issues become major problems.

Identifying early signs of beam pocket damage can prevent more extensive and expensive repairs down the line. Look out for cracks in the foundation near beam pockets, sagging or uneven floors, and doors and windows that stick or don’t close properly. Visible deterioration or decay in the beam pocket area, as well as moisture or water damage, are also indicators that repairs may be needed. At Acculift, we offer comprehensive solutions for both interior and exterior beam pocket repair. Our process begins with a thorough assessment and diagnosis, using advanced tools to inspect the beam pockets from both the interior and exterior. We then proceed with cleaning and preparation, stabilization, repair and reinforcement, and moisture barrier installation.

At Acculift, we begin with a thorough assessment to diagnose the extent of the damage. Our experts use advanced tools and techniques to inspect the beam pockets from both the interior and exterior, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the problem. The repair process involves cleaning and preparation, stabilization, repair and reinforcement, and moisture barrier installation. We use high-strength materials to repair damaged sections of the beam pocket and may reinforce the area with steel plates or brackets for added support. After the repair is complete, we conduct a final inspection to ensure the integrity of the beam pocket. Any cosmetic repairs needed to match the surrounding area are also performed, leaving your interior looking as good as new.
Exterior beam pocket repairs start with a detailed inspection of the foundation walls. Our team looks for signs of cracking, bulging, or other damage that may compromise the beam pocket’s integrity. The repair techniques we use include excavation, structural repair, waterproofing, and backfilling and landscaping. We carefully excavate around the foundation to access the damaged beam pocket and use advanced materials and techniques to repair the damaged areas. This may include using epoxy injections for cracks, applying waterproof sealants, and reinforcing with steel components. Once repairs are complete, we backfill the excavated area and restore landscaping to its original state, ensuring minimal disruption to your property.
