Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Stabilization and Encapsulation in Miami, Florida
Travis in Miami, Florida, noticed that the original finished flooring in his home had swollen, leading him to suspect there was an issue with the crawl space beneath the house. After calling us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free appointment to have his crawl space inspected for potential issues. Upon entering the crawl space, our Design Specialist noted that high levels of humidity were present and the block piers supporting the home’s floor joists had settled. To provide a complete and comprehensive solution, a plan was developed to install both the CleanSpace™ Crawl Space Encapsulation System and the SmartJack system. The CleanSpace™ system would protect against moisture damage, while the SmartJack system would permanently stabilize the home’s floor joists. Travis approved this plan, and our team soon set to work implementing these solutions, effectively providing his home with the protection and stabilization needed. Now Travis no longer has to worry about his foundation’s stability, as his crawl space is now fully protected and secured for many years to come.
