Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Saint Petersburg, Florida
Ron from Saint Petersburg, Florida, had major concerns with his home’s foundation when large cracks started appearing in the walls. Additionally, many areas of the home’s floor felt unstable when walked upon and exhibited a noticeable slope. He scheduled a free inspection with LRE Foundation Repair and an expert Design Specialist visited his home to examine the condition of the crawl space below. The specialist quickly observed that many of the block piers supporting the floor joists had settled into the ground due to the shifting soil underneath, leading to the floor’s instability. To level the floors and provide permanent stabilization to the home’s foundation, the LRE team installed several SmartJacks in key locations within the crawl space. The resulting stability for Ron’s floors provided much relief and peace of mind, knowing that his home was now safe and secure.
