A homeowner in Miami Shores, Florida, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to inspect their crawl space after noticing cracks forming along the interior walls of their home. One of our expert Design Specialists inspected the crawl space beneath the home and discovered that many of the wooden floor joists were sloping due to insufficient support. Our production team quickly stepped in and installed our state-of-the-art SmartJack system, providing durable and permanent stability for the support joists and leveling the home’s floors. Upon completion, the homeowners can now enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their foundation is fully secured and permanently stabilized.
While renovating her new home in Miami, Florida, Kathryn discovered that the crawl space below had suffered from moisture damage. Seeking help from LRE Foundation Repair, an expert Design Specialist identified a leak from the A/C system as the primary cause. To safeguard against potential issues like mold, termites, and wood rot, the specialist proposed the installation of our CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This involves covering the space with a waterproof barrier, along with a sump pump and dehumidifier for protection. Following installation, Kathryn's crawl space is now safeguarded against moisture damage, ensuring the long-term safety of her home's foundation.
Rodrigo P. and his wife suffered from harsh, musty odors in their Miami Beach, Florida home. Growing concerned for their health, they reached out to LRE Foundation Repair. LRE carefully inspected the home and crawl space beneath it, discovering inadequate airflow had trapped moisture, allowing the growth of mold and mildew. LRE designed a solution to keep the area clean and dry while eliminating excess moisture. The LRE team implemented the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System to provide the needed protection and regulation of moisture. This crawl space encapsulation method involves thorough sealing of the space with a heavy-duty water vapor barrier that covers the floors, walls, and piers. Once these barriers are securely sealed, they provide an airtight environment. The addition of a dehumidifier keeps the air in the crawl space clean and dry. Once the project was complete, Rodrigo and his wife were very pleased with the enhanced protection of their crawl space, along with the improved indoor air quality and energy efficiency. Their home is now protected to be a comfortable and healthy living space for many years to come.
