Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Stabilizing Crawl Space Support for Historic Home in Melbourne, Florida

Erika owns a century-old historic home in Melbourne, Florida, and had noticed areas where the floors felt unstable when walked upon. After being referred to LRE Foundation Repair, Erika scheduled a free inspection with an expert Design Specialist. Upon close examination of the crawl space, the specialist found that many of the block piers supporting the floor joists above had settled into the ground. Given the age of the home, it was no surprise that soil settlement had caused the piers to sink. A plan for a permanent solution was created to stabilize the floors using the SmartJack System. The LRE team then began implementing the solution, placing the SmartJack in key areas of the crawl space to provide strong and stable support to the floor joists above. Erika was thrilled to discover that her floors now felt completely stable, providing her with confidence that her historic home would be secure for another hundred years.
