The Complete Guide to Crawl Space & Foundation Repair in North and South Carolina

Why Crawl Space & Foundation Problems Can’t Wait

If your floors feel soft or uneven, you smell mildew under your house, or you see cracks running along your walls, those aren’t just surface issues. They’re signs of deeper crawl space or foundation problems. And the longer you wait, the worse—and more expensive—it gets.

Signs Your Home Has a Crawl Space or Foundation Problem

  • Sagging or bouncy floors
  • Musty smells, especially after rain
  • Cracks in drywall, ceilings, or exterior brick
  • Standing water or heavy moisture in crawl space
  • Fungus or wood rot
  • A hump in the middle of your floor

These issues usually mean something’s shifting below your home. We’ll find the root cause and fix it permanently.

What Makes Falcone Different

At Falcone Crawl Space, we don’t just cover up problems with plastic sheeting or short-term fixes. We do structural repairs the right way, using American-made materials and time-tested methods. Based in Charlotte, we handle tough jobs across both North and South Carolina.

 

Most companies only offer waterproofing or encapsulation. Falcone goes deeper—literally. We specialize in foundation and structural repair. That means:

  • Full support beam replacements
  • Joist sistering and sill repair
  • Concrete pier installation
  • Lifting and leveling with helical piles

We use American-made steel and pressure-treated lumber, installed by licensed, trained crews who understand the building science of Southern homes.

Crawl Space & Foundation Repair Services

Free Inspection

Fast scheduling across Charlotte and surrounding areas. Our team looks for signs of structural failure, moisture problems, mold, and more. We give honest assessments—no pressure, no scare tactics. If you don’t need a repair, we’ll tell you.

Foundation & Structural Repair

We fix cracked or sagging beams, sinking piers, and bouncy floors. Our crews lift houses carefully, install American-made supports, and stabilize homes the right way. We specialize in permanent structural repairs, not quick patches. If your home isn’t sitting level, we can make it right.

Encapsulation & Waterproofing

We install drainage systems, vapor barriers, sump pumps, and dehumidifiers—but only after the crawl space is structurally sound. Falcone builds systems designed to last, not just cover up deeper problems. We focus on fixing the cause of water issues, not just the symptoms. Encapsulation protects your home from moisture, mold, and pests long-term.

Helical Piles

Helical piles are steel anchors used to lift and stabilize sunken foundations. We drill them deep into stable soil and attach them to your home’s footing for lasting support. They’re also great for new construction and home additions where soil conditions aren’t ideal. Our piles are American-made and installed by trained crews.

Crawl Space Mold Remediation

Mold in a crawl space usually means you have a moisture or ventilation problem. We solve the root cause first—whether it’s drainage, humidity, or structural failure—before treating the mold itself. Our team uses safe, effective methods to remove mold without spreading spores through your home. We don’t just clean it; we prevent it from coming back.

Annual Maintenance Program

Your crawl space needs regular checkups just like your HVAC system or roof. Our annual maintenance program helps catch small issues—like standing water or wood rot—before they turn into big repairs. We inspect drainage, structural supports, and vapor barriers to keep everything working properly. It’s simple peace of mind for your biggest investment.

Garage Lintel Repair

A sagging or cracked brick opening over your garage is a real structural problem, not just a cosmetic one. We remove the failed steel lintel, install a new one properly, and reset the bricks for a clean finish. Ignoring a lintel issue can lead to bigger foundation and wall problems down the road. We fix it right the first time with American-made materials.

The Real Cost of Waiting on Crawl Space Repairs

Foundation and crawl space issues don’t fix themselves—they spread. A sagging beam today can become a floor collapse tomorrow. A little mold now could mean full remediation later. And when moisture stays trapped under your home, the rot keeps moving.

Delaying repairs only drives up costs and risks permanent damage to your structure. We’ve seen it firsthand—homeowners who waited too long and ended up replacing entire floor systems.

The sooner you call, the easier the fix usually is. That’s why Falcone offers free inspections and fast scheduling across Charlotte, Raleigh, Asheville, and beyond.
