Cracks in flooring are not considered normal, whether your home is on a slab or has a crawl space. Cracked tiles, slabs, or flooring can be a sign of settlement issues or underlying problems with your home's foundation. These cracks indicate that there may be issues beneath your home that need attention. We offer free comprehensive inspections to determine the cause of the cracks and assess the condition of your foundation. If you notice any such signs, please contact us to schedule a free inspection.
It depends on your policy and the cause of the damage. Some policies cover certain types of foundation issues, while others may not.
We do not offer crawl space cleaning as a standalone service. However, debris removal is typically included as part of our crawl space repair and encapsulation services. Clearing debris is often necessary for the proper installation of systems like our SmartJack system and CleanSpace Encapsulation system. We remove debris only in the areas required to complete the work and ensure the crawl space is properly stabilized and protected.

Once we’ve installed it, we also offer annual maintenance to ensure it continues to operate at peak performance, protecting your home from water damage, year-round.

Once the rodents have been removed, LRE offers our CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System to help ensure they don’t return. This advanced system seals off entry points and creates a barrier that not only keeps rodents and insects out year-round but also protects your crawl space from moisture damage and improves energy efficiency. Our solution provides long-term protection and peace of mind, helping to maintain a healthy, rodent-free environment in your home.

We do not "dig out" crawl spaces as a standalone service. However, if you choose LRE to complete your repair, we handle all aspects of the crawl space, including any necessary tunneling or excavation as part of our repair, stabilization, and encapsulation services. This ensures we can properly install our systems and complete the repair. A thorough inspection by one of our Design Specialists will determine the exact amount of excavation needed to get the job done right.
LRE does not provide exterior waterproofing services. However, our exterior drainage solutions are highly effective at preventing water from reaching your foundation. If you’re noticing water pooling around your foundation, pool deck, or patio, give us a call. We’d be happy to provide a free estimate to install drainage systems that divert water away from your property and help protect your home from potential water intrusion.

When addressing settlement problems, we include exterior waterproofing as part of our repair process. Please note that we do not perform waterproofing services on their own.
While LRE does not offer traditional batt insulation, we provide SilverGlo insulation, a patented rigid foam alternative. Unlike fiberglass batt insulation, SilverGlo does not compress, and unlike cellulose insulation, it does not absorb water or support mold growth. This makes it a superior choice for maintaining a dry, energy-efficient crawl space.
Mold testing is a key indicator that there may be underlying issues in your crawl space. The presence of mold often signals trapped moisture, which can lead to deterioration over time and contribute to various crawl space problems. While we do not perform mold removal ourselves, we frequently encounter this issue and have established close relationships with vetted mold contractors who specialize in this area. If you choose LRE for your crawl space repair, we will facilitate the mold removal process from start to finish, making your repair as smooth and efficient as possible.
