Before & After Photos

Todd F. contacted LRE to assess the severity of the settlement occurring at his home in Lakeland, Florida. Todd was concerned about the cracks throughout his home, most noticeably on the exterior walls and interior floor tiles. A whole home inspection was conducted, and it was determined by our foundation experts that unstable soils were causing the problem. To remedy the issue, our specialist designed a solution to stabilize the foundation from further settlement and lift the side of the home where settlement was most severe. Galvanized steel helical piers were installed by our trained crews around the perimeter of the home. Helical piers transfer the weight of the home from the unstable soil to the piers. Our team was thrilled to be able to help Todd permanently stabilize his home for good while significantly minimizing those large cracks. 

Tom N. of Lakeland, Florida needed to fix the sinking concrete slab for his tenants, as they had concerns of tripping hazards. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair for a possible solution. LRE conducted a thorough inspection to the property and noted high-volume areas of erosion and soil washout that had accelerated the process of the sinking concrete slabs around the home. To rectify this problem, LRE utilized PolyLevel, a concrete lifting and releveling service for uneven concrete slabs. This product is made of a polymer-type foam material that when applied, expands to fill voids and lift concrete, and solidifies for compaction and soil stabilization. Upon the completion of this project, the property owner was thrilled to see the concrete gaps closed and the walkways even and level once more. 

John T. has lived in his Mount Dora, Florida home for many years and was growing tired of his unlevel sidewalk. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to fix the tripping hazards once and for all. LRE completed an inspection of the property and determined cracks had formed due to the age of the concrete slab, and sandy soils had been eroded. LRE's solution included PolyLevel, which is an expanding foam material that, after injection under the concrete slab, fills the voids and compacts any loose soils while lifting the concrete back to its original state. Once the sidewalk was repaired, the homeowner was more than happy to never have to deal with tripping on an uneven sidewalk again. 

Recently, we assisted Amy H. in Mount Dora, Florida, who was dealing with cracks in her home's exterior walls. These cracks indicated potential foundational issues that needed attention. Concerned about preventing further damage, Amy contacted us, and our Customer Care team quickly arranged an inspection. Our Design Specialist conducted a thorough inspection of the home's foundation and determined that the issue was due to foundation settlement, a common problem in our region due to soil conditions. To address this, we recommended installing Helical Piers, engineered steel piers designed to stabilize and lift the foundation. Helical Piers were strategically placed to support the foundation, and as a result, the cracks in the exterior walls began to close, much to Amy's relief. The outcome restored the structural integrity of her home, and our team left the site clean. Amy was satisfied with the service and the peace of mind it brought.
