This St. Augustine home was experiencing weakened structural support in the crawl space, leading to uneven floors and reduced stability above. Over time, shifting soil and moisture exposure can cause original supports to settle or fail.
Our team installed heavy-duty crawl space support jacks to reinforce the floor system and restore proper support. These adjustable steel posts are set on stable footings and designed to permanently stabilize sagging floors while withstanding long-term ground movement.
The result: improved floor strength, better load distribution, and long-lasting structural stability for the home.
A homeowner in Saint Augustine, FL noticed sagging floors and contacted Sunshine Foundation Repair for help. After an inspection, our team discovered that moisture buildup in the crawl space had caused the wooden supports to deteriorate. We installed SmartJack support posts to stabilize the floors and a vapor barrier to help prevent future moisture issues, giving the homeowner a stronger, healthier home.
This St. Augustine home was experiencing foundation settlement that caused visible cracking along the exterior wall. Our team installed a helical pier system to permanently stabilize the structure and prevent further movement. The piers were driven deep into stable soil layers and securely attached to the home’s foundation footing using a patented bracket system. After installation, the area was backfilled and restored, leaving the yard clean and the home supported for years to come.
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.
