We installed an exterior french drainage system to stop water before it can leak into the home. The system will direct water away from the foundation through a discharge line to a safe distance to prevent the possibility of re-entry.
In Middleburg, FL, this homeowner was dealing with persistent standing water in the backyard. The lawn was constantly soggy after rainfall, making it difficult to enjoy outdoor spaces and posing a risk for foundation issues, mosquitoes, and lawn damage. As shown in the before image, poor drainage was causing water to collect with nowhere to go.
To resolve this, our team professionally installed a comprehensive yard drainage system. Trenches were carefully dug to lay underground piping, connecting to strategically placed catch basins designed to collect and redirect surface water away from the property. The after photo shows a much cleaner and more functional yard with new drainage grates in place allowing water to move efficiently and prevent future pooling. This solution restores both the health of the lawn and peace of mind for the homeowner.
This Middleburg crawl space was suffering from excess moisture, failing insulation, and poor air quality. The exposed soil and sagging insulation created a damp environment that encouraged mold growth and weakened the home’s structure. To correct the issue, our team removed the damaged insulation, encapsulated the crawl space with a CleanSpace vapor barrier, and installed a high-performance dehumidifier system. This solution keeps humidity under control, protects the home from future moisture damage, and improves indoor air quality for the entire house.
To stabilize and lift this homeowners sinking foundation, we installed our foundation pier system. The pier system works by transferring the weight of the structure from unstable soil to stable bedrock or load-bearing strata below. Steel piers are driven deep into the ground until they reach stable soil, then the foundation is lifted and stabilized, preventing further sinking or settling.
Our crew permanently stabilized this home's sagging floors with the SmartJack system. These fully-adjustable steel piers were installed in the crawl space to instantly and permanently stop settlement in its tracks and even lift the floors above back to their original position!
