Before & After Photos

Kent H. in Tampa, Florida was experiencing significant cracking to the exterior stucco of his home. With growing concerns there may be a problem, he called LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. After a thorough inspection of the home, LRE was able to determine the main cause of the foundation settlement was due to unstable soils underneath the home. To compact and stabilize the underlying soils, LRE used a two-part deep injection chemical grout. This material expands to compact the underlying soils while strengthening the area as well. LRE also installed helical piers to the side of the home in order to gain lift to the structure, closing some of the cracks in the exterior stucco. Helical piers are advanced deep into the soil and connected to the home's foundation to allow lift to occur. Once the job was complete, Kent H. was extremely pleased to see his home restored and foundation stabilized for years to come. 

The channel drain in front of Eric’s garage in Tampa, Florida, was no longer functioning properly, prompting him to seek a more reliable replacement. After contacting us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, we sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a free inspection and propose a solution. Upon thoroughly assessing the condition of the original channel drain, our specialist devised a plan to replace it with one of our upgraded models. This new system is designed to efficiently collect and redirect heavy rainwater away from the home through an underground drainage pipe leading to a relief drain, effectively preventing flooding in Eric’s garage. Our team carefully removed the old channel drain and installed our new, enhanced model, providing a reliable solution to protect Eric's garage and home from damage caused by flooding rainwater.

A homeowner in Tampa, Florida was experiencing a number of foundation issues due to the conditions underneath their home. This homeowner contacted LRE after noticing the floors inside their home had begun to sag. One of LRE’s specially trained Design Specialists visited the home to complete an inspection. The findings showed evidence of water intrusion in the crawlspace, rotten wood, and failing beams causing sagging floors in the home. LRE’s trained technicians were able to access the affected area and remediate the problems by installing a number of products. First, LRE installed their specially patented SmartJack system to support and stabilize the floor joists, as well as lift and re-level the floors. LRE also replaced the rotted girder beams and finished off the project by installing their CleanSpace Encapsulation system to control moisture, airflow, and keep out pests and insects as well as ground contamination.  Once the project was complete, the homeowner was ecstatic with their new crawlspace area. LRE was able to alleviate the homeowner's concerns by remedying the sagging floors and eliminating future damage to the home.

Mark had recently purchased his new home in Tampa, Florida when he noticed that certain areas of the floors felt unstable. He reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair, and we quickly scheduled a free inspection of the crawl space below his home with one of our Design Specialists. Upon examining the crawl space, the specialist found that the wooden floor joists lacked adequate support, causing them to sag slightly and creating instability in the floors above. As a permanent solution, our team installed the SmartJack system to provide robust support and lift the floor joists back to a level position. Following the installation, Mark was thrilled with the outcome, as his floors were now fully supported and stabilized.

After dealing with constant flooding on her back patio, Kelly in Tampa, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair for assistance in finding a solution. Following a thorough home inspection by one of our Design Specialists, a comprehensive drainage solution was developed to address Kelly’s flooding issues. This plan included the installation of a channel drain for the patio to collect and divert excess rainwater out to a perimeter relief drain. Our team carefully removed the necessary amount of concrete from the patio and installed the channel drain along the entranceway to the home, effectively preventing water from pooling in this area. Upon completion, Kelly was relieved that her patio's flooding issues were resolved, ensuring her foundation is now protected against water damage.
