Foundation settlement can put stress on a home and lead to noticeable changes around the exterior. At this Jacksonville, FL home, our crew excavated along the foundation to access the affected area and installed a helical pier system beneath the home. The piers are designed to transfer the weight of the structure to more stable soil below, providing lasting support and helping prevent continued settlement.
A homeowner in Jacksonville, FL was experiencing flooding at the front of their home due to water flowing from two gutter downspouts. With excess water collecting near the house, they reached out to Sunshine Foundation Repair for a drainage solution. A French drain system was installed to help capture and redirect water away from the home, improving drainage and helping protect the property from future water issues.
Water collecting near a home's foundation can create ongoing moisture problems and increase the risk of water intrusion. To help keep water away from the structure, our team installed an exterior drainage system designed to collect and redirect runoff away from the home.
These photos show the installation process as drainage piping was carefully routed beneath the existing paver patio. The system was connected to the downspout drainage line and equipped with an IceGuard fitting to provide an emergency escape route for water if the discharge line ever becomes blocked. Once the drainage components were installed, the pavers were reset to restore the appearance of the outdoor living space.
By moving water away from the foundation, this exterior waterproofing solution helps reduce moisture concerns and provides long-term protection for the home.
This Fleming Island homeowner had already taken steps to reinforce their home with support jacks, but moisture in the crawl space continued to be a concern. Wanting to protect their foundation and indoor air quality long-term, they reached out for a moisture solution. Our team installed a full crawl space encapsulation system sealing the area with a durable vapor barrier to lock out humidity and prevent future water-related issues. The transformation from a damp, exposed crawl space to a clean, protected environment ensures their home stays dry, healthy, and supported for years to come.
Standing water around a home's foundation can lead to drainage issues and potential foundation damage over time.
