Tom N. of Richmond Hill GA noticed a crack in his foundation wall one afternoon. After doing some research on foundation repair, Tom discovered other signs of foundation problems included sticking windows and doors. Tom didn't have those problems and he didn't want them so he called Lowcountry Basement Systems to fix the problem before it got worse.

Lowcountry Basement Systems installed a Push Pier System to stabilize the cracked foundation. Four push piers were needed for the job. First four holes were dug, large steel brackets were placed under the footer of the home and steel piers were pushed into the ground until load bearing strata was reached. 

The piers were attached to the brackets. More pressure was added and the brackets lifted the footer, lifting the foundation, closing the crack in the foundation. The weight of the home was then transferred to the load bearing strata below.

Tom was happy to have his foundation fixed before it became a bigger problem.  

Chris B. of Richmond Hill, GA had a moisture problem in his crawl space. Although he previously had a plastic sheet put down in his crawl space, mold continued to grow on the wooden joists, supporting his subfloor. Chris decided to call Lowcountry Basement Systems and get their professional opinion on the issue.

Lowcountry Basement Systems removed the failing plastic, removed debris and installed a Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System in Chris’s crawl space. The Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System sealed the crawl space off from the earth, removed moisture from the foundation and reduced the humidity in the crawl space. With the crawl space properly encapsulated, the mold under Chris’s home went into a dormant state.

Chris was happy with the results! He only wished that he called Lowcountry Basement Systems earlier.
