Joist & Subfloor Repair in Reading & Berks County

That bouncy, soft, or sloping floor usually means the joists or subfloor beneath it have lost strength. We repair the framing so the floor is solid again.

What joist & subfloor repair involves

Your floor feels solid because of the joists that span beneath it and the subfloor sheathing fastened on top. Termites and the moisture they bring eat into both, leaving floors that bounce, dip toward the center of a room, or feel spongy underfoot. We expose the damage from below where we can, sister or replace weakened joists, and replace deteriorated subflooring so the floor regains its stiffness and level.

Signs your joists or subfloor are damaged

  • Floors that bounce or vibrate when you walk across them
  • Soft or spongy spots, especially near exterior walls or plumbing
  • Visible sagging or dipping in the floor surface
  • Squeaks and movement that weren't there before
  • Damaged or sagging joists visible from the basement or crawl space

Our approach

We trace the soft floor back to the framing that's actually failing and repair it at the source, not with a patch on top. Fixed written pricing, code-compliant work, and a workmanship warranty.
