Beam and Joist Support Systems in Cleveland, OH
Sagging floors, bouncy hallways, and visible beam deflection all point to inadequate or failing structural support beneath your home. Structure Strong replaces deteriorated beams, installs adjustable steel support columns, and sisters damaged joists to restore a level, solid floor system.
We commonly encounter older Cleveland-area homes with undersized original beams, wood posts sitting on dirt floors, or termite-damaged joists that have lost their load-bearing capacity. Our approach replaces these with engineered lumber (LVL beams) on adjustable steel jack posts set on proper concrete footings.
Adjustable columns allow us to gradually raise sagging areas back to level without shocking the structure. The result is a floor that feels solid, doors that close properly, and peace of mind that your home's structure is sound.

Sagging floors are usually a beam or column issue, not the floor itself. Tell me where you're seeing it and I can narrow it down.
What Homeowners Say
From real beam & joist supports projects in the Cleveland area.
“Bought a flip house and the basement beam situation was sketchy at best. Previous owner had a 4x4 post holding up a beam that was clearly too small for the span. Danny took one look and knew exactly what it needed. New LVL, three adjustable columns, proper pad footings. The floor upstairs went from trampoline to solid in one day.”
Tony L.
“The floors upstairs were so bad you could put a ball down and it'd roll to the middle of the room. Turned out the main beam was sitting on stacked cinder blocks, if you can believe that. Structure Strong replaced it with a real beam and steel columns. Floors are level now for the first time in probably 30 years.”
James P.
“The kitchen floor had a noticeable dip right where the island is. Figured it was just an old house thing. Turns out the beam underneath was undersized for the span and the wood post was rotting at the bottom. They put in an LVL beam and adjustable steel columns. My wife noticed the difference before I even told her they'd been there.”
