What Causes Crawl Space Problems in Lake Placid
Lake Placid's deep sandy ridge soil drains fast after rain but shifts over the limestone below, which can settle unevenly under a crawl space foundation.
Our Crawl Space Repair Process
We start with a real evaluation to find the actual cause of the damage. Where support piers have settled unevenly, we drive steel push piers to stable, load-bearing soil to bring sagging floor joists back into position, and address moisture with sealing, drainage correction, and vapor barrier work.
