A homeowner in Bluffton, SC had sloping floors in the home and contacted us at Lowcountry Foundation Repair with concerns about settling, creaking noises in the floor, and a slope in one area. They were already aware the issue was likely exacerbated by having a moisture issue in the crawl space, so they also had an interest in having the crawl space cleared out, waterproofed, and encapsulated. Our inspector did a thorough inspection of the crawl space, and was able to diagnose the issue, presenting a solution customized to the needs of the home. Our team then came out and installed the SmartJack Support System and the CleanSpace Encapsulation System to solve the crawl space issues.
