A homeowner in Jacksonville, FL needed additional support beneath their home due to concerns with the crawl space floor system. Sunshine Foundation Repair installed SmartJack supports and a steel support beam beneath the floor joists to help stabilize the structure and provide reliable support. The new system replaces inadequate support in problem areas and helps create a stronger, more stable floor system.
This Jacksonville, FL homeowner was dealing with an exposed crawl space that allowed ground moisture to enter the area beneath the home. The open vents and bare earth created conditions that could lead to elevated humidity, musty odors, and potential damage to the home's structure over time.
To create a cleaner, healthier, and more controlled environment, our team installed a durable crawl space encapsulation system. The heavy-duty vapor barrier now seals off the ground and foundation walls, helping reduce moisture intrusion and protect the wooden framing above. The result is a brighter, cleaner crawl space designed to support improved moisture control and long-term home performance.
With 92 linear feet of buried downspouts, the next time it rains, water will drain away from the homes foundation so it won't flood the basement or cause structural damage.
Helical piers stabilize failing foundations by being driven deep into the ground until they reach stable soil. They then transfer the weight of the structure from the unstable soil to the stable soil or bedrock below, providing additional support and preventing further settlement or movement of the foundation.
