Crawl Space Repair in Hollywood, FL
Hollywood, Florida was founded in 1925 as one of South Florida's first planned "boom era" cities, and it sits on the same porous oolitic limestone bedrock found throughout Broward County. Between decades-old original construction in some of its historic neighborhoods and a coastal water table close to the surface, crawl space moisture is a genuine, recurring issue here. Solid Foundations is a family-owned, licensed Florida General Contractor (CBC1267322) offering free crawl space evaluations throughout Hollywood.

What Causes Crawl Space Problems in Hollywood
Broward County's porous limestone bedrock combined with Hollywood's coastal water table means moisture has an easier path toward a home's foundation than in areas further inland. In some of the city's older neighborhoods dating to its 1920s founding, original construction can be nearing a century old, and beams that weren't spaced to modern standards contribute to sagging floors.
Our Crawl Space Repair Process
We start with a thorough evaluation to find the real cause of the damage. Where support piers have settled into saturated soil, we drive steel push piers to stable ground to bring sagging floors back into position, paired with moisture control so the repair holds.
