Ellabell, GA Foundation Repair & Crawl Space Encapsulation

A homeowner of an Ellabell, GA home was experiencing some issues with the floor in the home. The floor was noticeably unlevel, soft in some areas, and the bathroom floor was unsafe to walk on. They called us at Lowcountry Foundation Repair and we sent out one of our system design specialists to do a free inspection, fully evaluating the extent of the issue and proposing the recommended solutions to fix the problem. Our inspector found that a third of the floor space of the home was compromised by termite damages and the bathroom floor was rotten. Our inspector proposed having the subfloor and joists replaced in the areas where the damage was extensive and supporting the floor with our SmartJack support system to stabilize and help relevel the floor. The homeowner was pleased with this recommendation and decided to move forward with the project. Our production team came out to the home and expertly installed the solution, making sure to inform the homeowner of the steps taken and answer any questions about the work. The floor is now brand new and stable!

Heavy rains could mean only one thing for Bob L. of Ellabell, GA, a wet garage. Every time the sky turned grey, his garage would flood. The water would enter the garage and run down the driveway. Bob called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to help with his waterproofing problem. Bob wanted his garage space dry all of the time where he would never have to worry about personal items getting wet if stored in the space.

A Lowcountry Foundation Repair inspector went to Bob’s house and inspected the foundation, garage, and driveway areas. The inspector recommended fixing the water problem in the garage. This job took one day to install. Lowcountry Foundation Repair installed a SuperSump Pump and drainage system around the perimeter of the garage. Bob was very happy to be able to use his garage again.

One bright and sunny afternoon, Bob L. of Ellabell, Ga left his house to go play golf. As he began pulling out of his driveway, he noticed he was missing grass in one area. He parked his car, walked over to the spot and much to his surprise, he realized he had an erosion problem.

Bob called Lowcountry Basement Systems and described what he saw. Design Specialist, Dan Friesen went to Bob’s house and looked at his driveway. Dan noticed the missing dirt and recommended PolyLevel® to support the driveway where the erosion took place.

The project was scheduled and took an hour to complete. PolyLevel® foam was injected under the slab to fill any voids and stabilize the concrete. Bob felt relieved that his small problem was fixed and it didn’t turn into something bigger.
