Photo Album: Crawl Space Stabilization in Melrose, Florida
Joshua, a new homeowner in Melrose, Florida, noticed a noticeable sag in the floors of his recently purchased home. Concerned for the safety of his family, he wanted to ensure the crawl space's structural support was secure. Joshua reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection, and we promptly sent one of our Design Specialists to evaluate the situation.
Upon inspecting the crawl space, our specialist discovered that sections of the wooden floor joists were inadequately supported due to the settling of the block piers. To address this, the specialist proposed installing our SmartJack system—a reliable solution designed to level and permanently stabilize floor joists.
After discussing the plan with Joshua, our team carefully installed each SmartJack, precisely adjusting them to fit the crawl space and provide the necessary support. Now, with the repairs complete, Joshua can confidently settle into his new home, knowing the foundation is stable and his family’s safety is ensured.
Crawl Space Inspection
During the crawl space inspection by the LRE Design Specialist, it was evident that many of the block piers had settled, compromising the structural support for the floor joists above.
Sagging Floor Joists
The floor joists of the home lacked adequate support from below, resulting in a noticeable sag and causing the interior floors to slope.
SmartJack Installation
The LRE team installs each SmartJack on footers filled with a solid, stable base designed to resist soil settlement, offering a more reliable solution compared to standard block piers.
Complete Crawl Space Stabilization
The LRE team has successfully completed the SmartJack installation, ensuring the floor joists are level and reinforced with durable, permanent support.
