This Gainesville homeowner was dealing with unwanted water pooling near their foundation, so we stepped in with a customized French drain and exterior waterproofing solution. After carefully trenching alongside the home and beneath the driveway, we installed a French drain system designed to keep groundwater away and protect the structure long-term.
But we didn’t stop at solving the drainage issue; we made sure everything was put back just the way we found it. Once the new system was in place, we restored the concrete with a clean, smooth finish that blended seamlessly with the existing driveway. From protection to polish, this project was all about getting the job done right, functionally and visually.
High humidity in a crawl space can lead to structural damage by increasing moisture levels in the air, which condenses on cooler surfaces like floor joists. This moisture promotes wood rot, mold growth, and attracts pests, all of which weaken the joists and compromise the home's structural integrity.
Due to excess moisture in the crawl space, the floor joists began to warp and become damaged, affecting the floor above. Our team carefully removed and disposed of the rotted materials and replaced the floor with new lumber to ensure an even, safe, and structurally sound floor.
We installed an exterior french drainage system to stop water before it can leak into the home. The system will direct water away from the foundation through a discharge line to a safe distance to prevent the possibility of re-entry.
This beautiful outdoor space in Yulee, FL was facing a common but serious issue water pooling along the sliding glass door after heavy rain. Over time, this can cause erosion between pavers, foundation stress, and even water intrusion into the home.
To solve the problem, our crew installed a sleek and durable drain system directly in front of the patio doors. The new trench drain redirects rainwater from the foundation, helping to prevent standing water and protect the home structure. Now, this homeowner can enjoy their patio worry free rain or shine!
