Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Floral City, FL
Greg from Floral City, FL, noticed that the floors in one area of his home felt weak and unstable when walked on, leading him to suspect structural support issues in the crawl space below. After taking a closer look himself, he installed bottle jacks in an attempt to provide additional support, but they proved to be ineffective and only a temporary fix. Seeking a permanent solution, Greg contacted LRE Foundation Repair and scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.
Upon entering the crawl space, our specialist discovered damage to portions of the wooden floor joists caused by inadequate support beneath them. A comprehensive repair plan was developed to repair the damaged joists and install our SmartJack system to provide long-lasting, permanent support.
Greg approved the plan, and after our team repaired the joists, each SmartJack was carefully positioned and adjusted to lift the floor system back toward its proper position while permanently stabilizing the affected area of the home.
Now, Greg can enjoy peace of mind knowing the floors in this section of his home are properly supported and permanently stabilized for years to come.
Crawl Space Bottle Jacks

Ineffective Crawl Space Support
The bottle jacks previously installed beneath the floor joists had proven ineffective at providing adequate support, allowing the floors to remain unstable and contributing to further damage to the joists over time.

The LRE team begins the repairs by removing and replacing the damaged wooden floor joists with new lumber.
