Elliot P. has lived in his Bradenton, Florida home since a child. He started noticing his bathroom floors giving way when he walked on them and the door would no longer close all the way. Concerned, Elliot reached out to LRE for a free inspection. After a whole home inspection, LRE determined that poor soil conditions and failing support columns were mostly to blame. LRE custom-designed a solution using SmartJacks and galvanized steel support beams to replace the existing structure, stabilize the foundation, and lift the floors back into place. Once this project was complete, Elliot was thrilled to know his childhood home is now permanently restored and stabilized for many more memories to be made.
Wendy and her husband from Sarasota, Florida, sought to restore their historic home but encountered a persistent musty odor throughout the home. Suspecting it originated from the crawl space, they asked LRE Foundation Repair to conduct a full-home inspection. After a thorough examination, an LRE Design Specialist recommended the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System to regulate moisture, eliminate odor, and prevent mold growth. The LRE production team implemented the system in the crawl space, ensuring efficient moisture control and improved air quality inside the home. Wendy and her husband can now enjoy their historic home without the pesky odor or concerns about mold growth in their crawl space.
Kevin, a homeowner in Sarasota, Florida, became concerned about the structural support in his crawl space after noticing widening gaps forming between his floors and adjacent walls over time. After calling us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, we quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists to help identify any potential issues.
Upon entering the crawl space, our specialist observed that the wooden support joists had developed a noticeable slope, caused by the weight above and inadequate support below, as several block piers appeared to have settled.
A plan was created by our Design Specialist to provide durable and permanent support to the floor joists and lift them back into place with our SmartJack system. Kevin agreed to the plan, and our production team promptly began installing each SmartJack in key areas of the crawl space. This effective solution restored the floor joists to their proper position, eliminating the gaps between the floors and adjacent walls.
Kevin can now rest easy knowing that the structural support in his crawl space has been permanently stabilized and his home is secure.
The floors inside Kevin's home in Sarasota, Florida, had started to gradually sink, with large gaps forming between the floorboards and the adjacent walls and door frames. Concerned about potential structural issues in the crawl space beneath his home, he contacted us at LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection. Our expert Design Specialist inspected the crawl space and immediately identified that the block piers supporting the home’s floor joists had settled, causing the joists to slope. To provide permanent support and stabilization, our team installed our state-of-the-art SmartJack system in key areas of the crawl space. Now, Kevin’s floors are level, and the gaps have been permanently closed.
