This home in Summerville, SC had cracks appearing on the exterior of the home, indicating a foundation settlement issue. This issue would only get worse over time without repair, so our team installed helical piers to stabilize the foundation, preventing future settlement. With a hydraulic lift system, the piers were used to attempt to bring the settled area back closer to a level position.
This home in Summerville, SC had a moisture issue in the crawl space, which two different local companies had unsuccessfully attempted to solve. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the existing moisture barrier was a cheap, thin plastic that tore easily and was not properly sealed. Additionally, the multiple dehumidifiers were not draining properly and were exacerbating the moisture issue. The walls were covered in non-moisture-proof fiberglass insulation, which was breeding mold and allowing water to seep into the crawl space. To effectively solve these issues, a CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed, which is specifically designed to address common encapsulation problems like these. As a result, the crawl space is now a dry, healthy, and moisture-controlled space.
The homeowner in Summerville, SC, had crawl space issues due to high humidity levels, causing floor saturation and potential damage over time.

Jane M. of Summerville, GA was reading the Journal Scene newspaper when she saw a Lowcountry Foundation Repair ad for crawl space repair. She read the ad and realized that she had a crawl space problem at her home. Her floors were sagging, soft and felt unstable.
Jane had Lowcountry Foundation Repair inspect the crawl space. The inspector recommended installing a SmartJack System to provide proper support to the home. Jane liked the idea of using SmartJacks because they are made of galvanized steel, so they won’t rust.
Jane had the work done and noticed the difference immediately. The sagging, weak floors were no more!
