Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

John from Orlando, FL, had just recently purchased his 1940s historic home and needed to have the floors leveled and stabilized after noticing that they were sloping under the current weight. After contacting LRE Foundation Repair, we sent our expert Design Specialist to conduct a free full home inspection. Our specialist observed that many of the original block piers in the crawl space had settled into the soil below, causing the home’s floor joists to sag due to the lack of support. To provide the needed support for the floor joists and restore them to their proper level, we had our team install our SmartJack system in the crawl space. Each SmartJack was installed and carefully measured to properly fit in the crawl space and provide durable and permanent support. Now, John can settle into his historic home with the assurance that the support from the crawl space below is completely stabilized.

Steve, a homeowner in Orlando, Florida, owns a 100-year-old historic home with a crawl space that had endured years of extensive moisture damage, resulting in persistent mold and mildew issues. Seeking a lasting solution, Steve contacted LRE Foundation Repair. Our team addressed the problem by sealing the crawl space with the CleanSpace™ Crawl Space Encapsulation System. For added protection, we installed an EverLast™ Crawl Space Door at the entrance, creating an airtight, waterproof barrier to keep out humid air, pests, and rodents. Constructed from durable, inorganic plastics and foams, these doors provide an exceptional defense against moisture and pest intrusion. Now, Steve’s historic home is safeguarded with the protection it needs to maintain a dry and secure crawl space for years to come.

Zachary S. was experiencing ongoing water intrusion in the basement of his Orlando, Florida home, leading to damp conditions and musty odors throughout his living space. He contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a professional inspection, which revealed poor exterior drainage as the primary cause. LRE implemented a comprehensive solution combining drainage repair and moisture control. A CleanSpace Encapsulation system was installed, featuring a durable vapor barrier and high-performance dehumidification to seal out moisture and eliminate odors. To address the source, the team also installed a subsurface drainage system to redirect water away from the foundation. With these systems in place, Zachary now has a clean, dry, and odor-free basement, along with lasting protection against future water intrusion.

Gary B. had experienced a lot of damage to his home after a hurricane struck the area in Orlando, Florida. Water damage had not only infiltrated the house, but also the crawlspace area causing musty odors and sagging floors. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair for help. After an inspection of the home, LRE determined not only moisture from the storm had caused damage, but also failing wood joists and supports in the crawlspace attributed to the floors settling. LRE got to work in the crawlspace, removing and replacing wood joists, installing moisture barriers, insulation, and finishing the job with LumberKote, a protective sealer, to the whole area. Once complete, this homeowner was thrilled with a dry, odor-free crawlspace that's been stabilized for good. 

When David R. from Arcadia, Florida, noticed his floors starting to sag, he knew it was time to take action. Concerned about the potential risks to his home's structure and safety, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair. Our Customer Care team scheduled an inspection with one of our Design Specialists, who carefully examined the crawl space. The inspection revealed issues with rotten wood and failing concrete supports. To address these problems, we recommended SmartJacks, designed to support and level floors from below the home. SmartJacks provide immediate stabilization and a reliable long-term solution. Once the project was completed, the SmartJacks system successfully raised and leveled the floors. This transformed a worrying situation into a secure and stable environment. David was left with peace of mind, knowing his home was stronger and more stable than before.
