LRE Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Brad P. started noticing the gap between his back patio and walls getting larger, allowing more moisture in from the outside of his Lake Placid, Florida home. He wanted his foundation leveled and gaps closed before more potential damage could occur. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair, who came out to his home quickly and completed a full-home inspection. LRE determined that loose, shifting soils under his home caused the foundation to sink and turned to PolyLevel injection for the permanent solution. PolyLevel is a polyurethane expanding foam material that is injected through the concrete slab and around the outside of the home to fill voids, stabilize loose soils, and lift the foundation back into place. This homeowner was pleasantly surprised to see the gaps closed and could rest easy knowing no further damage would occur.

Ashley M. inherited her Lake Placid, Florida home when her grandfather passed away and it needed quite a bit of work. She was informed the roof needed repairs, but before that could start, the more pressing issue was the foundation. Cracks were apparent in the brick walls, and upon inspection, LRE determined a corner of the property had experienced erosion and settlement, which needed to be lifted and stabilized. The homeowner didn't hesitate to move forward with the project, which consisted of the installation of galvanized steel helical piers. These piers were advanced into the soils around the home until the proper pressure and compaction were achieved. Once this happened, the piers were attached to the home's footer, and a lift was able to occur, releveling the sunken foundation. After the project was completed, this homeowner was amazed to see the cracks closed and happy to know her family home was stabilized for years to come.

Residents of an apartment complex in Bonita Springs, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair to address multiple trip hazards that had developed in the concrete sidewalk in front of their building. After our Design Specialist inspected the concrete and confirmed that the underlying soil had settled, we developed a plan to use our PolyLevel solution to lift, level, and permanently stabilize the uneven slabs. With the residents' approval, our team injected PolyLevel directly beneath the concrete, leveling the slabs within minutes and eliminating the trip hazards. The residents are now relieved of any injury concerns and can safely continue to use their sidewalk with peace of mind.
