Before & After Photos

Karen in DeLand, Florida, had recently remodeled her kitchen when she began noticing that the floors felt unstable under the added weight. Since her home included a large crawl space, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for an inspection to identify potential structural issues.

After a free evaluation by our Design Specialist, we designed a plan to permanently stabilize the home’s floor joists using our advanced SmartJack system. Once Karen approved the plan, our team installed each SmartJack in the crawl space, carefully adjusting them to provide strong, reliable support beneath the kitchen.

With the system in place, Karen can now enjoy her remodeled kitchen with confidence, knowing the crawl space beneath her home is permanently stabilized.

Louis R. was growing concerned as he noticed his pool deck was sinking and large cracks were forming where it met the foundation. Before it could get any worse, he decided to call LRE Foundation Repair for some help. LRE completed a whole home inspection and determined that poor grading/sloping of the property toward the water accelerated the erosion process. Washed-out and loose soil conditions were causing voids and settlement under the deck, so LRE devised a solution that consisted of PolyLevel. This two-part, polyurethane material was injected under the concrete slab through small holes, and flowed through loose soils, expanding and filling the voids as it went. PolyLevel also lifts concrete slabs, like this pool deck back to level, and once the job was finished, the homeowner was thrilled his pool deck was level, cracks closed, and could finally rest easy knowing it was permanently stabilized. 

Joe from Fort Myers, Florida, grew concerned when major cracks began forming in the exterior walls at the back of his home—signs pointing to potential foundation issues. In search of a dependable solution, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a free professional inspection.

Our expert Design Specialist found that the foundation had settled due to unstable soil, worsened by repeated heavy rainfall over time. To address the issue, we developed a tailored repair plan using our helical pier system to lift and permanently stabilize the foundation.

With Joe’s approval, our team installed each pier deep into the ground until they reached strong, load-bearing soil. The piers were then securely bracketed to the foundation’s footer, allowing the home’s weight to be transferred to stable soil layers. Our team then successfully lifted the foundation back into its proper position, effectively closing the cracks in the exterior walls.

Joe was thrilled with the results and now has peace of mind knowing his home is structurally sound and permanently protected for the future.

Theodore plans to retire in his Chiefland, Florida home with his family and doesn’t want to have to worry about his foundation’s stability in the future. Looking to bring greater support to the home’s floor joists, he requested assistance from LRE Foundation Repair. A Design Specialist visited Theodore's home to perform a thorough inspection of the crawl space and identified an opportunity to enhance floor stabilization by implementing the SmartJack system. The spacing of the wooden floor joists appeared wider than they ideally should be, and the SmartJack system provided the support needed to stabilize the home. Theodore can now have peace of mind, knowing he and his family are safe and secure in their forever home.

In High Springs, Florida, David needed to have his historic home’s crawl space inspected after noticing the floors inside felt increasingly unstable. He also observed numerous cracks appearing within the home’s walls, further indicating potential structural problems. After reaching out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, we quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our Design Specialists. Upon visiting David’s home and entering the crawl space, our specialist immediately observed a lack of stable support for the home’s floor joists, including previously installed bottle jacks. The specialist developed a plan to reinforce the home’s floor joists by installing our SmartJack system. David approved the plan, and our team began installing each SmartJack in key areas of the crawl space to provide the floor joists with permanent and reliable support. Once the work was complete, David was very pleased with the results and expressed great appreciation for our team’s efforts in stabilizing his historic home’s crawl space.
