This Okatie, SC homeowner was trying to sell her home, but knew that her crawl space needed repair before putting it on the market. She called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to schedule a free appointment with an inspector. 

Our inspector Brian suggested that the crawl space needed to be encapsulated with our CleanSpace product, as well as installing a dehumidifier. Our CleanSpace isolates the home from the earth completely and reduces humidity levels. To keep the humidity levels low, we installed our SaniDry Sedona, which is a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth.

When the project was complete, the homeowner was able to sell her home at a better price, where as a home with a dirty crawl space can depreciate the home's value by 10%. This homeowner was thrilled!

Job Stories From Okatie, SC
Crawl Space Vapor Barrier Installation in Okatie, SC

Water and humdity was a problem for a homeowner in Okatie, SC. After contacting our office, we providided a through inspection and decided the most effective solution was to fully encapsute the space using our CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This system completely seals off the crawl space from moisture, creating a dry, healthy environment. It also prevents rodents, insects, and other pests from entering the space. Finally, the system helps to reduce energy costs by creating a barrier between the crawl space and the interior living space.

Foundation Support in Okatie, SC

As a result of the support system failing, the floors above the crawl space sagged and the interior walls cracked. Providing the necessary support for a safe and stable home was our permanent solution, the SmartJack System.  This system provides a solid base for the floors to sit on, allowing it to stay level and the walls to stay strong. It also helps to redistribute the weight evenly, which prevents further damage from being done to the home.

Encapsulation in Spring Island, SC

This home out on Spring Island had a severe moisture issue in the crawl space. The homeowner called us at Lowcountry Foundation Repair to see what could be done to stop the moisture issue completely. One of our system design specialists was sent out to the home to do a free inspection, investigating the crawl space thoroughly and crafting a custom-designed CleanSpace Encapsulation solution to solve the issues for good. One element of the customized encapsulation that was particularly unique was that the home had an open crawl space rather than a vented crawl space, so in addition, a product called Foamax was used to create an insulated wall barrier, closing the openings off from outside air leaks. Our production team at Lowcountry Foundation Repair installed the solution expertly alleviating the moisture and creating a conditioned, insulated space.

Vapor Barrier Placement in Okatie, SC

The owner of this home contacted us with concerns about their crawl space. They mentioned critters like to live under the house sometimes and there are musty moldy smells that get worse during more humid seasons. One of our inspectors came out to the property and did a thorough inspection of the foundation of the home. In the crawl space, the measured relative humidity level of the air was above 80%, a very high level. The relative humidity really should be kept at about 55% to prevent microbial growth, mold, and wood rot. With this in mind, our inspector recommended having the CleanSpace Encapsulation System installed to seal off the harmful moisture levels, monitoring & controlling the relative humidity to around 55%. A decrease in humidity can make the crawlspace a less habitable space for critters. The homeowner decided to move forward with having the project done, and our team installed the encapsulation.

SmartJacks in Okatie, SC

Homeowner, Mike, from Okatie, South Carolina noticed he had cracks on his walls and ceiling. He knew that this could lead to a larger home problem, so he did some research on the web for who to call. After some looking, Mike found Lowcountry Foundation Repair. After calling us, we set Mike up for a free inspection and a customized quote.

Our inspector came to look at Mike's home and saw that the reason he had cracks on his wall and ceiling was that there were foundation issues. Mike's floor would need to be releveled and the inspector recommended using SmartJacks. SmartJacks would lift up the foundation to relevel the floors and support the home. Our production team came and installed SmartJacks and now Mike's home will be in great condition for many years to come. Most importantly, Mike was extremely happy with the results.

Crawl Space Waterproofing in Okatie, SC

Kevin J. of Okatie, SC contacted Lowcountry Basement Systems after he noticed standing water and an extensive amount of moisture in his new home's crawl space. Kevin was excited about living in his new home and wanted to keep it in perfect shape. He wanted to fix this issue as soon as possible, after doing some research online he decided to call Lowcountry Basement Systems and schedule a free appointment with one of the inspectors. 

Lowcountry Basement Systems had an inspector go to Kevin's home in Okatie and thoroughly check out the crawl space. He took notes and pictures of the problem areas so that he could give Kevin a precise free estimate. He suggested that Kevin waterproof his crawl space with a SuperSump sump pump and drainage matting. SuperSumps are designed to relieve subfloor water pressure and evacuate water from the crawl space. Drainage matting is recycled high-density polyethylene matting with dimples that allow better conductivity for water to easily get to the perimeter drainage or sump pump. 

After two days of installation, the crawl space was fully waterproofed and free of standing water. Kevin was very happy with the results and felt relaxed in his new forever home!

Okatie, SC Home with Standing Water in Crawl Space

Ken K. of Okatie, SC received some disturbing news from his property manager. Ken was told that was standing water in his crawl space, directly under the center of his home. Ken was advised to call Lowcountry Basement Systems to help remove and protect his home from moisture.

Ken took the advice and scheduled a free inspection with Lowcountry Basement Systems. The standing water noticed by the pest control company was still there when Brian Townsel of Lowcountry Basement Systems showed up to do the inspection. Brian asked Ken if it was a common issue, or if he just recently noticed it. Ken said water tends to stay there after heavy rains.

Brian recommended Ken protect his house from the moisture. If the subfloor, joists, or main beams absorb water vapor, it would weaken the structure of the house, Brian explained. Ken took Brian’s advice and decided to prevent bigger and more expensive problems in the future by encapsulating his crawl space.
