Christina's back patio in Fort Myers, Florida, had significantly sunk into the ground, creating a noticeable gap between the patio and the adjacent wall of her home. After reaching out to us at LRE Foundation Repair and scheduling a free appointment, our Design Specialist visited her home to conduct a full home inspection. Upon assessing the back patio, our specialist discovered that erosion of the underlying soil had caused the concrete to settle. To lift, level, and stabilize the patio, our team utilized our PolyLevel solution by injecting it directly beneath the concrete. As a result, the gap between the wall and the patio is now closed, providing Christina with peace of mind and assurance that her concrete back patio is now completely leveled and stabilized.
Sylvia in Fort Myers, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair to address a significant tripping hazard in her concrete driveway, where two slabs had become uneven. After thoroughly assessing the situation, our expert Design Specialist explained that soil erosion beneath the driveway had caused the concrete to shift and become unstable. To resolve this, our team used PolyLevel to lift and level the settling slab, permanently stabilizing the driveway by injecting the solution beneath the concrete. Sylvia was delighted with our team's work and felt relieved that the tripping hazard in her driveway had been completely eliminated.
Concerned about moisture buildup in his home’s crawl space, Steve from Fort Myers, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a reliable solution to safeguard his home. After a thorough inspection by one of our expert Design Specialists, we developed a plan to install the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This system includes a durable moisture barrier that covers the entire crawl space, preventing moisture from seeping into the wooden supports and inhibiting mold growth. With Steve’s approval, our team quickly implemented the system, ensuring year-round protection against moisture damage. Steve can now have peace of mind knowing that his home’s foundation is safeguarded with a comprehensive moisture protection solution.
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.
Karen and Ron R. were enjoying retirement in their Sebring, Florida home but were growing tired of seeing cracks throughout their driveway, which was their favorite place to sit. Hoping to have the cracks removed or diminished, they called LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. LRE was able to inspect the area and determined that loose, shifting soils, voids, and tree roots were the main cause of the noticeable damage. Using a combination of services called PolyLevel and NexusPro, LRE was able to solve these homeowners' concerns with ease. PolyLevel is a polymer foam material that is injected through small drill holes in the concrete driveway and expands to lift areas of the drive while it solidifies the soils below. Once the driveway was stabilized, LRE used NexusPro to seal visible cracks and smooth out the concrete. NexusPro is a silicone-based, flexible sealer that protects the integrity of the concrete while smoothing out and diminishing the appearance of cracks. Once this project was complete, these homeowners were thrilled with the results and could enjoy their protected driveway for years to come.
