This Dunedin, Florida crawlspace is almost unrecognizable after LRE Foundation Repair completed this transformation using its Crawlspace Encapsulation and SmartJack system. The condo association called LRE after receiving numerous complaints of sagging floors and worries about structural damage. LRE thoroughly inspected all units and got to work stabilizing the crawlspace that had been compromised from excess exposure to the elements and loose soil conditions. LRE's Crawlspace Encapsulation involves covering every square inch of the crawlspace with materials designed to keep outside elements totally separate from what's inside the home. LRE used a variety of moisture barriers, new insulation, and dehumidifiers to control the air quality in the environment and completely ward off future damage. In addition, LRE's SmartJack system uses galvanized steel posts, cut to size and attached to the new support system, allowing for stability and releveling of the foundation. Once this massive project was complete, the association and its residents were happy with the results and could rest easy in their newly stabilized homes.
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.
Shortly after purchasing his new home in Safety Harbor, Florida, Nik noticed sections of the floors sinking, with visible gaps forming between the floors and the adjoining walls. Suspecting an issue with the crawl space’s structural support, he reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. Our team quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.
Upon inspecting the crawl space, our specialist found that the original block piers supporting the floor joists had settled and become dismantled, leading to the sagging floors. To restore stability, we recommended installing our SmartJack system, designed to lift and permanently support the floor joists. Once Nik approved the plan, our team promptly installed the SmartJacks in key areas of the crawl space, successfully leveling the floors and providing durable, long-term support.
With his floors now fully stabilized, Nik can enjoy peace of mind as he settles into his new home, knowing his foundation is secure.
Before diving into our recent crawl space repair in Brooksville, FL, Charles noticed areas in his home's floors that felt unstable. An LRE Design Specialist also found that there were water leaks and failing joists in the crawl space - a homeowner's nightmare. As you can see, we stepped in with a robust solution, installing SmartJack for solid support and CleanSpace to seal and protect. The difference is night and day. Now, Charles enjoys level floors in his home and a dry, durable crawl space, all rooted in our commitment to remarkable outcomes and lasting peace of mind.
