In Port Orange, Florida, Paul’s pool deck required a more effective drainage solution after he noticed water pooling in the area following heavy rainstorms. After reaching out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free appointment, we sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a thorough inspection of his pool deck. Our specialist determined that the pre-existing channel drain embedded in the pool deck’s concrete had become damaged over time and no longer provided sufficient drainage.
A plan was created to implement a new drainage solution, which involved replacing the old channel drain with an enhanced version designed to collect and divert excess rainwater to a pop-up relief drain located away from the pool deck. After presenting this new solution to Paul, our production team quickly began the installation process, carefully removing and replacing the old channel drain with the more effective drainage system. Paul’s pool deck is now equipped with the right solution to prevent water from pooling, effectively protecting both the concrete and the foundation of his home.
This Oviedo, Florida homeowner called our team at LRE Foundation Repair when he noticed the holes under his pool deck were growing in size. Our team inspected the property and determined that a faulty drainage system caused the majority of the erosion, leaving an unstable foundation. Our crews got to work injecting PolyLevel to the affected areas of the home. PolyLevel - an expanding polymer foam material, was injected at various points in the pool deck and surrounding areas to fill large voids and solidify loose, shifting soils. The project was completed quickly and once finished, the site was cleaned up and the pool deck was permanently stabilized.
Maria Q. from Lake Wales, FL was concerned about excess moisture getting trapped in the crawl space under her home. She reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, and an experienced LRE Design Specialist conducted a thorough inspection of her residence. The specialist confirmed that the crawl space had excess moisture, which had caused mold to damage the wooden floor joists and had negatively affected indoor air quality. To solve this issue, the specialist recommended replacing the damaged joists and encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace system, specifically designed to manage moisture, regulate airflow, and prevent pests. This encapsulation process involves covering the crawl space with a waterproof liner to effectively block moisture from penetrating the wooden floor joists. Additionally, a crawl space drainage system with a sump pump and dehumidifier was installed to keep the area dry and clean. The LRE team completed the project, and Maria's crawl space was significantly improved, ensuring long-term stability for her home's foundation and air quality.
Larry and Lori from Lake Wales, Florida, were dealing with a serious tripping hazard that had developed in the concrete of their front porch, so they reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair for help. After a thorough inspection by our Design Specialist, we confirmed that significant soil erosion beneath the porch had caused the concrete to settle.
To fix the issue, our production team got to work by injecting our PolyLevel solution beneath the affected slabs, lifting, leveling, and stabilizing the porch quickly and effectively. Now, Larry and Lori can enjoy their front porch without worry—the tripping hazard is gone, and the concrete is fully leveled and permanently stabilized.
After Hurricane Ian damaged the area of Sanibel, Florida, Mr. P.'s home suffered severe washout causing gaping holes under the foundation of his home. He called LRE Foundation Repair for help. Working with structural engineers, LRE was able to design a solution that included flowable fill, a fluid-like slurry grout mixture that cures, fills voids and creates a stable foundation. The material was poured around the perimeter of home filling in the necessary gaps, and once cured PolyLevel, a two-part expandable polyurethane material, was injected to the needed areas to add compaction to the loose soils below. Once his foundation was stabilized, the homeowner was pleased with the finished product and confident he could continue the rebuild to the rest of his home.
