Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Susan had noticed small cracks in the interior walls of her Tampa, Florida, home and reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a full-home inspection. One of our Design Specialists inspected the crawl space below the home and discovered that the floor joists lacked sufficient support from the original block piers, resulting in the interior walls cracking. To address this issue, our production team installed SmartJacks in the crawl space to ensure enhanced support for the home's floor joists. Now, Susan can enjoy peace of mind, knowing that her home is fortified with permanent stability.

After hurricanes Helene and Milton had caused flooding in Jim’s crawl space at his home in Tampa, Florida, he knew he needed a solution to keep the area protected from moisture damage. He reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance and we quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our Design Specialists. Upon conducting the inspection, our specialist informed Jim that his crawl space could be fully protected with the CleanSpace™ Crawl Space Encapsulation System. A plan was created to implement this comprehensive solution, and with Jim’s approval, our team carefully began installing the CleanSpace system, effectively sealing the entire crawl space with a waterproof moisture barrier. Along with a specialized dehumidifier, this vapor barrier will keep the crawl space clean and dry all year round. Upon completion, Jim was overjoyed with the results of our team’s work, and can now feel assured that his home’s foundation is protected against moisture damage.

Diana was preparing to list her home for sale in Belleair, Florida, and sought to ensure its maximum value by having the floors leveled and stabilized. She asked LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, and an expert Design Specialist visited her home to conduct a thorough inspection of the crawl space. The specialist discovered that, due to soil settlement, numerous block piers supporting the floor joists above had sunk, resulting in insufficient support for the floors above. To level the floors and provide permanent stabilization, the LRE team installed the SmartJack system in the crawl space. With this solution in place, the floors are now leveled and stabilized, ensuring that Diana's home is ready to be listed for sale at its highest potential value.

Erika B. from Melbourne, Florida owns a century-old historic home. She noticed that the floors were sagging and squeaking when she walked on them. To get a permanent solution, she contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection. After the inspection, LRE found out that the existing support columns in the crawl space of her home had settled, and the wood joists had deteriorated, causing the floors to sag. To solve the problem, LRE's Design Specialist recommended the installation of SmartJack, a galvanized steel system designed to stabilize the floor joists in the crawl space. The SmartJack system was installed throughout the crawl space, and it permanently lifted and re-leveled the floors of the house. After the job was completed, Erika was extremely pleased with the results.

Maria Q. from Lake Wales, FL was concerned about excess moisture getting trapped in the crawl space under her home. She reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, and an experienced LRE Design Specialist conducted a thorough inspection of her residence. The specialist confirmed that the crawl space had excess moisture, which had caused mold to damage the wooden floor joists and had negatively affected indoor air quality. To solve this issue, the specialist recommended replacing the damaged joists and encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace system, specifically designed to manage moisture, regulate airflow, and prevent pests. This encapsulation process involves covering the crawl space with a waterproof liner to effectively block moisture from penetrating the wooden floor joists. Additionally, a crawl space drainage system with a sump pump and dehumidifier was installed to keep the area dry and clean. The LRE team completed the project, and Maria's crawl space was significantly improved, ensuring long-term stability for her home's foundation and air quality.
