Before & After Photos

Brad and Alisa C. had been putting off pool deck repairs at their Longwood, Florida home long enough and finally decided to address them. They called LRE Foundation Repair for an estimate after being referred by a friend. LRE was able to determine that many years of washout and unstable soil conditions had caused the large cracks in the pool deck and recommended PolyLevel for remediation. PolyLevel is an environmentally safe, expanding foam material that is injected through tiny drill holes in the pool deck. Once injected, the material expands quickly to solidify loose soils, fill existing gaps, and finally, raise the concrete deck to close all cracks. These homeowners were amazed at the results and thrilled their pool deck was now permanently stabilized. 

A homeowner in Longwood, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair after noticing that their large concrete patio slab, which supported their home’s AC unit, was separating from the house and sinking into the soil. Concerned about the structural integrity of the patio, they scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.

During the assessment, we discovered that significant soil erosion, caused by rainwater runoff from the roof, had compromised the slab’s stability. To provide a lasting solution, our team installed a helical pier system around the patio’s foundation, ensuring durable support and preventing further settlement.

Upon completion of the project, the homeowner was relieved to see the gap between the patio and the home fully closed, knowing their patio slab is now permanently stabilized and secure.

Ken’s pool deck in Longwood, Florida, often flooded during heavy rainstorms, leaving large pools of water that drained slowly. Seeking a lasting solution, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair. Our Design Specialist inspected the property and found that the original channel drains had become damaged and were no longer adequate for providing proper drainage, causing persistent pooling. We proposed installing a new exterior drainage system featuring an upgraded channel drain to efficiently collect and divert rainwater away from the deck. After Ken’s approval, our team removed sections of concrete, installed the new channel drain, and connected it to a subsurface drainage pipe system. Now, Ken’s pool deck is well-protected with a superior drainage solution that prevents pooling and safeguards his home from water damage.

Robert B. of Ormond Beach, Florida called LRE Foundation Repair after growing concerned about large cracks forming in his pool deck. LRE completed an inspection of the property only to discover large voids had formed underground where armadillos had previously dug their dens. LRE formulated a plan to remedy the unstable soil situation by using PolyLevel injection around the pool deck. PolyLevel is an environmentally safe, expanding polymer material that is injected through small holes drilled in the concrete deck. As the material flows through loose soils, it expands on contact filling voids and creating stable ground. In addition, PolyLevel is able to lift concrete back level again, closing the cracks that concerned this homeowner. Once the project was complete, the homeowner was thrilled that his pool deck was crack-free and level once more.
