Before & After Photos

Patricia, a member of a condominium association in Sun City Center, Florida, reported to LRE Foundation Repair that cracks had developed throughout the walls of one of the property’s two-unit buildings. One of our expert Design Specialists conducted a thorough inspection and discovered that the underlying soil had settled significantly, leading to instability in the building's foundation.

To address this issue, we developed a comprehensive plan to lift and stabilize the settling foundation using our helical pier system. After presenting this plan to Patricia and the association, our production team carefully installed each pier deep into the soil beneath the building until we reached strong, load-bearing soil. This process successfully transferred the weight of the condominium to the sturdier soils, lifting the foundation back into its proper position and closing the wall cracks.

With the project completed, residents of this condominium can now enjoy peace of mind, knowing their foundation is permanently stabilized.

Ken A. of Brandon, Florida started noticing his concrete walkway sinking and the joints forming larger gaps. He could visibly see a void under one section of his sidewalk and decided he wanted the whole sidewalk repaired before it could get any worse. He called LRE Foundation Repair, who immediately came out to complete the inspection. The sidewalk was located near a boat dock and body of water, and erosion was washing soils away, compromising the concrete's stability. LRE remedied this problem using PolyLevel, an expanding foam material injected underneath the concrete walkway. This material expands to fill voids in the soils below while adding stability. LRE finished the project by sealing and protecting the concrete joints using NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant protects the walkway from any future damage, achieving the goals of this happy homeowner. 

Chrisanne S. of Brandon, Florida had growing concerns as water started intruding into her home during heavy rains. She called LRE Foundation Repair to assess the damage and design the solution. LRE installed a drainage solution that would divert water away from her foundation. LRE installed hard pipe underground, EZ Flow materials, and pop-up drains to complete this customized system. Once completed, this homeowner was able to rest easy knowing no further water would enter or damage her home.

Jim K. and his son were preparing to sell their home in Riverview, Florida, but they wanted to improve the driveway to enhance the curb appeal of their house. They contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. LRE conducted a thorough inspection of the property to ensure that no underlying issues were causing cracks. After the inspection, LRE discovered that the driveway was in poor condition due to its age and exposure to the elements. They recommended a "fix and protect" plan to restore the driveway. Our team utilized PolyLevel, an expanding foam material, to inject it directly beneath the concrete slab. This product fills voids, stabilizes loose soils, and expands to lift concrete slabs until they are level. Afterward, they used NexusPro, a silicone-based sealer, on all cracks, and a tinted translucent topcoat called DecoShield was applied to the entire surface. These products not only stabilized and protected the driveway from the elements for years to come but also gave the homeowner the curb appeal they wanted.
