Flooding had been a persistent issue in the yard of Gary’s home in Cooper City, Florida, and he knew he needed to have the problem addressed to prevent potentially serious damage to his foundation. A Design Specialist from LRE Foundation Repair visited Gary’s home to conduct an inspection and craft a customized solution to help prevent flooding. After looking over the yard of the home, the specialist discovered that although the home had a gutter and downspout system, the water would regularly pool around the perimeter of the home due to poor grading of the yard. A plan was devised to install an EZ Flow French Drain system, which includes a buried extension for the downspouts. This extension will directly channel water from the gutters and into the subsurface system. From here, the water will then be diverted out through a pop-up relief drain located at the far end of the home's property. Following LRE’s installation of his new drainage system, Gary’s flooding issues have now been successfully resolved, relieving him of this persistent issue.
After noticing multiple hairline cracks forming in the exterior walls of his home, Mark from Oakland Park, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a free foundation inspection. During the assessment, our Design Specialist confirmed that soil settlement had occurred beneath the home, compromising its stability. To provide a lasting solution, we recommended installing our push pier system to permanently stabilize the foundation.
Mark approved the plan, and our team quickly got to work, installing push piers beneath the foundation to transfer the home's weight to solid bedrock and lift it back into its proper position.
After the installation, Mark was thrilled to see that the cracks in his walls had closed. Now, he can enjoy lasting peace of mind, knowing his foundation is secure for years to come.
Gina from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair after noticing that several concrete sidewalk slabs behind her apartment complex had sunk. Since the sidewalk runs alongside a dock, the uneven surface created a serious tripping hazard for her and other residents.
After a thorough inspection by our Design Specialist, we recommended using our PolyLevel solution to lift and level the slabs. Gina approved the plan, and our team carefully injected PolyLevel beneath the concrete, successfully raising and stabilizing the sidewalk. Now, Gina and the other residents of her apartment complex no longer have to worry about the risk of injury, as their sidewalk has been permanently restored to a safe, even level.
Shanna C. had issues with water flooding around areas of her Pembroke Pines, Florida home. The water would pool and cause slip hazards around her paver porch. Worried someone may get hurt down the road, she decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to eliminate her flooding problem. LRE inspected the home carefully and noted poor grading was allowing the water to flow towards the home rather than away from it. LRE's Design Specialist crafted a solution that utilizes a buried percolation trench that will collect and divert rainwater away from the home and out through a pop-up relief drain. The entire drainage system was buried underground when the job was finished and this homeowner was thrilled, not only with the look of it but with the dry patio she could finally enjoy worry-free.
Ramon's Hollywood, Florida home was damaged during the last hurricane, with water intruding into the house. Worried that the damage might get worse, he called LRE Foundation Repair for a proper drainage solution. LRE inspected the property and noted damage to the foundation had allowed water to enter the home. Proper drainage was needed around the perimeter of the home, as well as an upgraded downspout that would divert excess water away from the foundation. LRE's team got to work, excavating a carefully measured trench and laying the necessary pipe and gravel materials. Following the completion of the installation, LRE took care of burying all materials and cleaning up the site, leaving this homeowner more than pleased with the results.
