Jacking Up A House - Reinforcing House Beams

Phil and company are jacking up the floors in an old house. In this video, we are reinforcing house beams. We already jacked up some of these beams, but they started falling apart.Show more

This job between jacking up the house and re-plumbing the complete house took about a week.

When reinforcing the beams, you want to screw into the beam. It won't take any of the weight, but will keep the boards attached to your beams.

One thing you can say about Phil, he has fun no matter what he's doing.
