Zachary S. was experiencing ongoing water intrusion in the basement of his Orlando, Florida home, leading to damp conditions and musty odors throughout his living space. He contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a professional inspection, which revealed poor exterior drainage as the primary cause. LRE implemented a comprehensive solution combining drainage repair and moisture control. A CleanSpace Encapsulation system was installed, featuring a durable vapor barrier and high-performance dehumidification to seal out moisture and eliminate odors. To address the source, the team also installed a subsurface drainage system to redirect water away from the foundation. With these systems in place, Zachary now has a clean, dry, and odor-free basement, along with lasting protection against future water intrusion.
Mary from Orlando, Florida, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to report that water was intruding into the sunroom next to her pool deck. She previously had a drainage system installed that proved to be ineffective, so she asked us to help design an alternative solution. One of our Design Specialists visited Mary’s home to inspect the issue and developed a plan to install an EZ Flow French drain system along the sunroom's exterior walls. This system would work to collect and redirect water to a relief drain away from the home. With Mary’s approval, our production team soon stepped in and began installing the French drain by removing the appropriate amount of soil in order to position the system below the surface. Once the system was in place, we carefully concealed the French drain to provide a seamless appearance. Mary’s sunroom now benefits from an effective solution to prevent further water intrusion, much to her relief.
Steve, a homeowner in Orlando, Florida, owns a 100-year-old historic home with a crawl space that had endured years of extensive moisture damage, resulting in persistent mold and mildew issues. Seeking a lasting solution, Steve contacted LRE Foundation Repair. Our team addressed the problem by sealing the crawl space with the CleanSpace™ Crawl Space Encapsulation System. For added protection, we installed an EverLast™ Crawl Space Door at the entrance, creating an airtight, waterproof barrier to keep out humid air, pests, and rodents. Constructed from durable, inorganic plastics and foams, these doors provide an exceptional defense against moisture and pest intrusion. Now, Steve’s historic home is safeguarded with the protection it needs to maintain a dry and secure crawl space for years to come.
Gary B. had experienced a lot of damage to his home after a hurricane struck the area in Orlando, Florida. Water damage had not only infiltrated the house, but also the crawlspace area causing musty odors and sagging floors. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair for help. After an inspection of the home, LRE determined not only moisture from the storm had caused damage, but also failing wood joists and supports in the crawlspace attributed to the floors settling. LRE got to work in the crawlspace, removing and replacing wood joists, installing moisture barriers, insulation, and finishing the job with LumberKote, a protective sealer, to the whole area. Once complete, this homeowner was thrilled with a dry, odor-free crawlspace that's been stabilized for good.
Lisa from Orlando, Florida, was alarmed when she observed stair-step cracking patterns developing along the walls inside her garage. Recognizing this as a serious issue, she promptly called us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. One of our Design Specialists visited Lisa’s home to conduct a full home inspection and found that a section of the foundation had settled due to the instability of the underlying soil, resulting in cracks in the walls. To lift the affected section of the foundation back into place and close the wall cracks, our team installed the helical pier system. Lisa was delighted to see the cracks in her garage’s walls now closed, and she can now feel at ease knowing that this section of her foundation is now permanently stabilized.
