Elizabeth R. in Interlachen, Florida, requested LRE Foundation Repair to inspect her recently purchased historic home, experiencing sloping and instability in the floors. An LRE Design Specialist performed a full inspection of the home's crawl space and identified deterioration in the floor joists and piers brought on by age and soil settlement. The LRE team installed a series of SmartJacks in the crawl space, effectively lifting and stabilizing the floors above. With the foundation now permanently stabilized, Elizabeth and her family can enjoy living safely in their newly restored historic home.
A homeowner located in Archer, FL was looking to add an addition to their home. Before the homeowner could start this project they were needing to replace the rotting rim joist and improve the stabilization of this area of the home. LRE was able to successfully remove and replace the rotted rim joist so this homeowner can now safely move forward with the addition to their home.
Theodore plans to retire in his Chiefland, Florida home with his family and doesn’t want to have to worry about his foundation’s stability in the future. Looking to bring greater support to the home’s floor joists, he requested assistance from LRE Foundation Repair. A Design Specialist visited Theodore's home to perform a thorough inspection of the crawl space and identified an opportunity to enhance floor stabilization by implementing the SmartJack system. The spacing of the wooden floor joists appeared wider than they ideally should be, and the SmartJack system provided the support needed to stabilize the home. Theodore can now have peace of mind, knowing he and his family are safe and secure in their forever home.
Concerned about high humidity levels inside his home, Todd from Ormond Beach, Florida, asked LRE Foundation Repair to inspect the crawl space below his home for any potential issues. After carefully examining the crawl space, one of our expert Design Specialists immediately noticed that moisture had been getting trapped, leading to potential structural damage, mold growth, and high humidity levels. To keep the crawl space clean and dry year-round, our team installed the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This comprehensive system includes sealing the entire area with a waterproof plastic liner to protect against moisture penetration to the home’s support structure and prevent mold growth. Following the successful installation of the CleanSpace system, Todd’s crawl space is now fully protected against the harmful effects of moisture damage.
Steven from Ocala, Florida, had just recently purchased his new home, intending to make it his permanent residence. Wanting to ensure the crawl space was structurally sound, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. Following a full home inspection by one of our expert Design Specialists, we recommended having our team repair some of the floor joists and provide them with permanent support with our SmartJack system. With Steven’s approval, our team began implementing this solution, fully stabilizing his home’s crawl space with this comprehensive system. Now Steven can feel assured that the foundation of his forever home is safe and secure for many years to come.
