Sinking Driveway Lifted in Port Saint Lucie, Florida

Cheryl and William G. were preparing to list their Port Saint Lucie, Florida home on the market, but wanted to address the sinking driveway before doing so. After scheduling a free inspection with one of our design specialists, soil washout and erosion were identified as being the culprits of the settling concrete. As washout and erosion occur, it leaves the remaining soil unstable enough to hold the weight of the concrete, causing it to sink. Our design specialist recommended our PolyLevel system to lift and re-level this driveway. PolyLevel is a fast-expanding polyurethane foam that works to solidify loose soils and fill voids, while simultaneously lifting concrete back level. Our team was pleased to be able to provide a fast and non-invasive solution to Cherly and Williams's driveway concerns, so they can get their home on the market. 

Closing Wall Cracks in Port Saint Lucie, Florida

With his foundation now stabilized, Leland can confidently list his home for sale, assured that it is permanently secure.

Buried Downspout Drainage Solution in Boynton Beach, Florida

Having dealt with constant flooding issues on one side of his home, Richard in Boynton Beach, Florida asked LRE Foundation Repair to help with designing an effective drainage solution. Upon inspection of his property by one of our Design Specialists, it was revealed that the downspouts connected to the home’s gutter system had not been adequately dispersing water away from the house, causing much of the problematic flooding. As part of a new comprehensive drainage system, our team connected the downspouts to a buried drainage pipe beneath the home’s yard. This setup directs rainwater toward a relief drain located away from the house. With this new solution in place, Richard’s flooding problems around his home have been effectively resolved, and his foundation is now safeguarded against water damage.
