Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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!

In Savannah, GA, this homeowner faced a challenging issue—water consistently leaking through the foundation wall, threatening their crawl space. As capturing in the "before" photo, this was much more than an inconvenience; it was compromising the homeowner's sense of security within their own walls. Yet, notice the remarkable transformation in the “after” photo, displaying the expert utility of our SuperSump system. With the trusty SuperSump pump in place, protection from floods is reliable and robust, ensuring this home remains dry and safe. This is how we help build peace of mind.

A Savannah, GA homeowner contacted our office for assistance in stabilizing their damaged floor joists. After a thorough assessment, we sistered the joists with new lumber. This process involves attaching new, structurally sound lumber alongside the existing joists to reinforce and stabilize them. By sistering the joists, we restore the structural integrity of the floor system, prevent further damage, and ensure a safer, more stable foundation for the home.

This homeowner's crawl space was plagued by persistent humidity, moisture, and mold, creating an unhealthy environment and potential structural risks. Our team installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, effectively eliminating humidity, moisture, and mold issues, transforming the crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthier area.

Excessive moisture in the crawl space caused the insulation to become wet and fall from the subfloor. Installing the CleanSpace Encapsulation System reduced humidity in the crawl space, creating a moisture-controlled environment, eliminating the need for subfloor insulation.
