Hi folks,
Im looking at a house with 2x6 joists that I believe have creep. The floor feels very solid and the crawlspace is bone dry with no signs or evidence of moisture.
There is a deflection running the length of the support beams. 1-1.5 inches of deflection or difference in height.
The current owner installed a metal beam to help support the floor (and apparently doesnt remember what company did it) but my fear is to fix the floor and make it flat enough for a LVP floor I will be looking at a huge amount of money.
I have another crawlspace company coming to look at the house tomorrow as my due diligence ends Friday, but does anybody have any advice that would be great.
