Lowcountry Foundation and Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

As you can see from the before photo of this joist, the homeowners were in bad need of our help. They called us out for the concern of a soft spot in their floor. Our Design Specialist was scheduled and made his way out to the home and the situation became even more urgent from the state of wood under the home, especially this specific joist. Our crew arrived and square the issue away swiftly and with confidence!

Our team recently installed the SmartJack Support System to permanently stabilize a customer's compromised crawl space. This innovative solution ensures long-term structural integrity and peace of mind. Another successful project, another happy customer! 

Foundation piers were installed to stabilize the house because they provide essential support to the foundation, preventing further settlement or shifting. This is particularly necessary when the soil beneath the foundation is unstable, prone to erosion, or has experienced changes in moisture levels that cause it to expand or contract. Foundation piers transfer the weight of the structure to more stable soil layers or bedrock, ensuring the house remains level and secure over time.

This homeowner was facing a frustrating and constant battle with water intrusion in their garage. Built over a natural spring, the garage floor would frequently become wet, especially after rainstorms or seasonal groundwater shifts. The excess moisture not only created a slipping hazard but also threatened the integrity of stored items and created the perfect environment for mold growth. Our team installed a SmartSump™ system, specifically designed for spaces like this. Now, the groundwater is automatically collected and pumped safely away from the home before it ever becomes a problem. The garage stays dry year-round, the homeowner has peace of mind, and the natural spring beneath the foundation is no longer a threat—it’s just part of the landscape.

Bob B., of Savannah GA met a  Lowcountry Foundation Repair team member at the Savannah Home and Garden Show and scheduled a free inspection of his crawl space. After the inspection, Bob decided to fix his wet crawl space.
