Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Stabilization in Homosassa, Florida
Tina and her husband had just purchased their new home in Homosassa, Florida, when they noticed that certain areas of the floors had settled, creating visible gaps between the walls and ceiling. Concerned about potential structural issues, they reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a professional crawl space inspection.
Our expert Design Specialist conducted a thorough assessment and quickly identified a lack of stable support for the home’s floor joists. To restore structural integrity, we developed a comprehensive plan to lift and permanently stabilize the floor joists using our SmartJack system.
After approving the plan, Tina and her husband watched as our team expertly installed the SmartJack system throughout the crawl space. The system effectively lifted the floor joists back into place, closing the gaps and reinforcing the home’s foundation. Now, with their crawl space fully stabilized, they can enjoy peace of mind, knowing their new home is secure for years to come.
Sloping Floor Joists
During the inspection of the home's crawl space, the LRE Design Specialist discovered that the floor joists had significantly dropped due to a lack of stable support from below.
Digging SmartJack Footers
The LRE team begins the SmartJack installation process by digging the footers for each SmartJack to their appropriate depths.
Installing SmartJack Footers
The SmartJack footers are filled with a solid base that is not prone to settling into the soil, providing a sturdy foundation for each SmartJack.
Installing SmartJack System
Each SmartJack is carefully placed on top of the previously installed footers and is adjusted to properly fit in the crawl space and stabilize the floor joists above.
Complete Crawl Space Stabilization
Following the complete implementation of the SmartJack system by the LRE team, the homeowner's crawl space is now fully and permanently stabilized.
