Repairing Foundation Settlement to Close Wall Cracks in Dade City, Florida

Large stair-step wall cracks gradually began appearing in a corner of David’s home in Dade City, Florida, prompting him to seek an inspection from LRE Foundation Repair to diagnose potential foundation issues. We sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a full home inspection, and they discovered that soil settlement beneath this side of the home had caused foundation instability.

To address the issue, our Design Specialist developed a plan to install a helical pier system beneath the affected side of the home to lift and stabilize the foundation permanently. With David’s approval, our team carefully installed each helical pier deep into the ground until reaching stronger soil layers. The home's weight was then transferred to these stable layers, effectively securing the foundation. Finally, our team successfully lifted the settling foundation back into place, closing the wall cracks.

Now with the wall cracks closed, David can enjoy peace of mind knowing that his home is fully secure and permanently stabilized.
