Before & After Photos

David Q. arranged for a comprehensive inspection of his Placida, FL, home's crawl space by LRE Foundation Repair after observing substantial sagging in the floors of his residence. A Design Specialist discovered that the original block piers in the crawl space were not adequately supporting the wooden floor joists due to soil settlement. To address this, LRE installed SmartJacks to ensure sufficient and permanent stabilization for the floor joists. With this renewed support, David can finally put his foundational concerns to rest.

Frank B. contacted LRE Foundation Repair after learning about our wide range of concrete services. He specifically wanted to address the cracks in his driveway and have the area re-leveled. LRE conducted a full inspection of his home and noted that the majority of the damage was caused by shifting and washed-out soils as well as the age of the property. LRE immediately addressed all of the homeowner's concerns. Our team first used PolyLevel, an expanding polyurethane foam material, to inject underneath the concrete driveway, which lifted and re-leveled it while permanently stabilizing the area. Next, LRE used NexusPro to fix and protect the driveway by sealing cracks and joints. NexusPro is a silicone-based crack sealer and perfect final step in this project. Once the job was complete, the homeowner was thrilled with the outcome and happy that his driveway looked like new again.

John M. of Winter Haven, Florida noticed his jacuzzi concrete slab was shifting, and the full extent of the issue became clear once the unit was removed, revealing a large crack running across it. Concerned about possible foundation damage, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a full inspection of the pool deck area. LRE identified that a failing drainage system and poorly directed downspout had caused soil erosion beneath the slab, leading to settlement and cracking. To restore stability, the team installed the PolyLevel® system to lift and level the concrete by filling voids and strengthening the underlying soils. NexusPro® joint sealant was then applied to seal cracks and joints and help prevent future water intrusion. To complete the concrete repair, LRE added a new drainage system to properly redirect runoff away from the foundation. With the slab stabilized, sealed, and protected by improved drainage, John now has lasting peace of mind and a fully restored concrete surface.

Thomas O. of Winter Haven, Florida has lived in his home for many years and was growing tired of the cracked and uneven concrete slabs that surrounded his backyard pool. The concrete was so unlevel in some places that it was causing tripping hazards around the pool. He called LRE Foundation Repair for a solution and upon inspection, LRE determined that loose soils, coupled with large trees and root systems were the main causes of the shifting slabs. LRE designed a solution that consisted of PolyLevel, a high-density injectable polymer foam material that expands, filling voids and lifting concrete. Once the PolyLevel was injected under multiple concrete slabs throughout the backyard, the homeowner was more than pleased to see the trip hazards removed and a smooth, releveled pool deck remaining. 

Ann L. was dealing with persistent water pooling around her patio. During our inspection, we discovered that poor grading and inadequate drainage were the root causes. To fix this, we installed a channel drain, also known as a trench drain, in the patio after removing a few pavers. This drain now directs water away from the patio and into the yard. The project was completed quickly, and Ann loved the result—her patio not only looks great but stays dry, solving the issue for good.
