Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This home in Savannah, GA needed an encapsulation to help put a stop to pooling water in the corners of the crawl space. Our team at Lowcountry Foundation Repair installed a  CleanSpace vapor barrier system complete with a sump pump and dehumidifier to keep the crawlspace nice and dry. Now the water is able to drain and get pumped away from the home!

In Savannah, GA, a homeowner expressed concerns about the foundation and crawl space insulation, specifically water-related issues. To address these concerns, our team provided a complimentary inspection by a knowledgeable system design specialist. During the assessment, our specialist identified debris accumulation, elevated wood moisture, signs of water seepage, and joist damage. Based on these findings, we developed a tailored solution, including installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation System, repairing the joists, and adding Smartjacks for supplemental support. This comprehensive approach addressed moisture and insulation needs and ensured structural stability for the crawl space. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System served as a moisture barrier and insulation, providing a long-lasting solution for the homeowner. With our recommended solution, the homeowner can have peace of mind, knowing their crawl space is protected and their foundation is properly supported.

In Savannah, GA our team installed our SmartJack Support System to permanently lift, level, and stabilize a customer's sagging floor. Our SmartJack Support System uses a steel bracket system to raise and support the floor joists, restoring the floor to its original level. This system is non-invasive, meaning the joists don't need to be cut into or removed, and is permanent, meaning the floor will remain lifted and stabilized.

Our SmartJack System with a supplemental beam was installed to stabilize sagging floors after a kitchen renovation. 

Eric F. wanted to sell his Savannah, GA home. He purchased it with the intent to flip it, but was notified by a home inspector of foundation issues in his crawl space. The main beams were not properly supporting the subfloor above. Eric asked the inspector who he would recommend for an estimate to fix the problem before putting the house on the market. The home inspector recommended the foundation experts at Lowcountry Foundation Repair.

Eric called Lowcountry Foundation Repair for a free estimate. The inspector noted the lack of support in the crawl space and recommended adding additional support to his foundation under the subfloor. The project would require adjustable galvanized steel support piers called SmartJacks, to support the sinking area in Eric’s foundation as well as supplemental PowerBrace beams to further stabilize the subfloors of the house. Eric had the work done and was thrilled with the results. The house was ready to list!
