Before & After Photos

Dan and Diane L. recently moved into their Melbourne, Florida home and immediately wanted their sunken and unlevel driveway repaired. Having experienced a broken bone from a previous trip hazard, these homeowners did not want to endure that again. LRE completed an inspection of the home, noting that buried tree roots were mainly to blame for their broken driveway. LRE was able to lift and re-level the affected areas of the driveway using PolyLevel, a two-part expanding foam material that is injected underneath the concrete slab. This material flows easily through soils, filling voids and expanding to lift the concrete back in place. Once the project was complete, these homeowners were thrilled to have the peace of mind they were looking for and tripping hazards removed.

Erika B. from Melbourne, Florida owns a century-old historic home. She noticed that the floors were sagging and squeaking when she walked on them. To get a permanent solution, she contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection. After the inspection, LRE found out that the existing support columns in the crawl space of her home had settled, and the wood joists had deteriorated, causing the floors to sag. To solve the problem, LRE's Design Specialist recommended the installation of SmartJack, a galvanized steel system designed to stabilize the floor joists in the crawl space. The SmartJack system was installed throughout the crawl space, and it permanently lifted and re-leveled the floors of the house. After the job was completed, Erika was extremely pleased with the results.

In Indialantic, Florida, John contacted LRE Foundation Repair to address recurring drainage issues around his home following heavy rainfall. Our expert Design Specialist conducted a thorough inspection and developed a custom plan to install an effective exterior drainage system. The plan included connecting the home’s gutter downspouts directly to an underground drainage pipe, effectively channeling rainwater to a relief drain instead of letting it pool around the foundation.

With John’s approval, our team installed the underground drainage system and connected the downspouts. Now, John can rest easy knowing his home’s perimeter is protected from water damage and his foundation is safeguarded against future issues.

James and Sheila, from Okeechobee, Florida, were looking to install new floors in their home when they discovered moisture damage in the subfloors. Concerned about the condition of their crawl space below, they turned to an industry leader for crawl space repair services and scheduled a free inspection with LRE Foundation Repair. A Design Specialist inspected their crawl space and found the soil to be very damp and discovered mold and mildew growth in the wooden floor joists. The specialist presented the homeowners with a plan to fully encapsulate the crawl space with the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This comprehensive solution seals the crawl space with a waterproofing liner and keeps the area clean and dry with a proprietary sump pump system and dehumidifier. After the LRE team completed the installation of the CleanSpace system, James and Sheila were thrilled to see that their mold problems were eliminated, keeping the air in their home clean, and the subfloors secure.

In Fort Pierce, Florida, Callista had requested an inspection from LRE Foundation Repair after noticing numerous cracks appearing in the walls around her home. Our expert Design Specialist visited her home and confirmed that soil settlement had compromised the stability of her home’s foundation. To address the issue, our team installed our helical pier system around the affected areas, effectively lifting and stabilizing the foundation back into its proper position. With the foundation secure, the cracks have closed, and Callista can now feel confident knowing her home is permanently stabilized and protected against future settlement.
