Lowcountry Foundation and Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This Okatie, SC homeowner was concerned about her foundation when she noticed her floors sagging and cracks in her dry wall. She decided to call Lowcountry Foundation Repair to schedule a free inspection of her crawl space.

We solved this problem with our galvanized steel SmartJacks, which are used as a column support that lifts sagging floor joists. After one day of installation the project was finished, and the homeowner was thrilled with the results. 

This Okatie, SC homeowner was trying to sell her home, but knew that her crawl space needed repair before putting it on the market. She called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to schedule a free appointment with an inspector. 

Our inspector Brian suggested that the crawl space needed to be encapsulated with our CleanSpace product, as well as installing a dehumidifier. Our CleanSpace isolates the home from the earth completely and reduces humidity levels. To keep the humidity levels low, we installed our SaniDry Sedona, which is a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth.

When the project was complete, the homeowner was able to sell her home at a better price, where as a home with a dirty crawl space can depreciate the home's value by 10%. This homeowner was thrilled! 

This Okatie, SC homeowner became concerned about his crawl space when he noticed water pooling under his home after heavy rains. He contacted Lowcountry Foundation Repair interested in a complete encapsulation for his crawl space and schedule an appointment with one of our inspectors. 

Our inspector, Brian Townsel, carefully took notes and pictures of the problems in the crawl space and reported what he saw back to the homeowner. He suggested that he should have the crawl space encapsulated with our CleanSpace, a seven-layer reinforced polyethylene that isolates the home from the earth and reduces humidity levels. 

After six days of installation, the homeowner's crawl space was encapsulated, clean and dry. The homeowner was thrilled! 

Bruce L. of Okatie, SC had been researching the effects of high moisture levels in crawl spaces. He didn’t like the idea that high moisture could lead to mold, soften wood joists, beams and subfloors. Bruce wanted to prevent those problems and called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to schedule an inspection of his crawl space.

Lowcountry Foundation Repair sent an inspector to the home and recommended installing a Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System. The system would remove excess moisture and reduce humidity in the crawl space. Bruce decided to have the work done. It took the Lowcountry Foundation Repair team three days to install the system and Bruce was thrilled with the work!

Doug C. of Okatie, SC called Lowcountry Basement Systems to have his sinking crawl space fixed. The sagging crawl space caused problems in Doug’s home. Doors became difficult to open and the cracks appeared in the drywall due to the sinking.

Lowcountry Basement Systems installed a SmartJack System to stop the subfloor from sinking. After the foundation was stabilized, the subfloor was lifted. Doug was happy he called Lowcountry Basement Systems for help.
