This St. Augustine home was experiencing signs of foundation settlement, including soil shifting around the exterior, potential structural movement, and areas of concern near the foundation footing. Coastal soil conditions and moisture fluctuations can often lead to unstable support beneath the home, causing sections of the structure to sink or shift over time.
To permanently address the issue, our team installed helical piers deep into stable load-bearing soil beneath the foundation. These engineered steel piers are designed to bypass weak surface soils and provide long-term stabilization, helping lift and support the affected area.
After installation, the area was carefully backfilled and restored, leaving the home with a secure foundation and improved structural integrity. This solution not only prevents further settlement but also protects the home’s value for years to come.
This concrete terrace was badly cracked and begining separating from the house. Issues like this can be dangerous tripping hazards, and need to be addressed before someone gets hurt. Our expert crew was able to fix this terrace up to look as good as new with some PolyLEVEL injections and NexusPro joint sealant.
This Saint Augustine homeowner was facing water intrusion and pooling concerns along the foundation. Heavy rains would overwhelm the area, leaving standing water that threatened both the yard and the home’s stability. Without proper drainage, issues like soil erosion, foundation cracks, and moisture damage were inevitable.
To fix the problem, our team installed a catch basin drainage system. After excavating, we placed basins and connected them with a network of buried drain pipes designed to quickly capture and redirect rainwater away from the foundation. The system was surrounded with clean stone for filtration and durability, ensuring water flows efficiently without clogging.
Now, this Saint Augustine home has a reliable defense against future flooding and foundation stress. With water properly managed, the homeowner can enjoy a dry, secure space and peace of mind even during Florida’s heaviest downpours.
This Saint Augustine property was showing signs of water draining toward the foundation, which can lead to staining on exterior walls, landscaping damage, and eventually water intrusion inside the home. These symptoms often point to poor exterior drainage around the foundation.
Our team installed a new drainage line and protective barrier system along the foundation to redirect water safely away from the home. By grading the area, adding gravel backfill, and ensuring proper pipe placement, we created a long-term solution that shields the property from water buildup. This system not only prevents foundation damage but also protects the home’s curb appeal and value.
A homeowner in St. Augustine, Florida was experiencing moisture and humidity issues in their crawl space, which can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and poor indoor air quality. Our team at Sunshine Foundation Repair completed a full crawl space encapsulation by installing a durable vapor barrier system to seal the ground and help prevent moisture from entering the space.
To further control humidity, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, one of the most efficient crawl space dehumidifiers available. This system continuously removes excess moisture from the air, helping protect the home's structure and improving the overall health of the home.
With the combination of a sealed crawl space and advanced dehumidification, this St. Augustine home now has a cleaner, drier, and more stable crawl space environment.
