Crawl Space Repair in Delray Beach, FL
Delray Beach's historic downtown, anchored by Old School Square, dates back to the early 1900s, when many homes in the area were built on raised pier-and-beam foundations. Combined with Palm Beach County's porous coastal limestone and a water table that sits close to the surface, that older construction is often due for a real evaluation. Solid Foundations is a family-owned, licensed Florida General Contractor (CBC1267322) offering free crawl space evaluations throughout Delray Beach.

What Causes Crawl Space Problems in Delray Beach
Delray Beach's coastal water table and porous limestone bedrock let moisture reach a home's foundation more easily than in areas further inland, and older homes near the historic downtown were often built on pier-and-beam foundations that are now nearly a century old in places.
Our Crawl Space Repair Process
We start with a thorough evaluation to find the real cause of the damage. Where support piers have settled, we drive steel push piers to stable ground to bring sagging floors back into position, paired with moisture control — sealing, drainage, and vapor barrier work — so the repair holds.
