Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair and Stabilization in Tampa, Florida
Christy and her husband reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for help with their new home in Tampa, Florida, after a recent home inspection revealed damage to the wooden floor joists in the crawl space. A thorough inspection by one of our expert Design Specialists uncovered termite damage that had compromised the joists and required repair. Additionally, recent renovations have added substantial weight to the home’s floors, necessitating increased support from below. Our specialist created a comprehensive plan to not only repair the floor joists but also provide them with durable and permanent support with our SmartJack system. After reviewing the plan with the homeowners, our production team went to work repairing the joists and installing the SmartJack system throughout the crawl space. Upon completion, Christy and her husband were thrilled with the results and can now enjoy living in their new home, confident that their foundation is completely and permanently secure.
