LRE Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A section of the concrete sidewalk in front of Barbara’s home in Port Richey, Florida, had developed into a dangerous trip hazard, and she knew she had to get it fixed before any serious injuries could occur. After calling us at LRE Foundation Repair, we sent one of our Design Specialists to inspect the sidewalk and help provide a solution. Upon careful examination, the specialist found that one of the concrete slabs had sunk into the ground, creating an uneven surface with the adjacent slab. They diagnosed soil settlement as the cause and created a plan to implement our Two-Part Concrete Protection System to fully repair and stabilize the sidewalk. First, our team injected PolyLevel directly underneath the sunken slab to lift it back to its proper level and stabilize the underlying soil. Next, we sealed the control joint separating the two slabs with NexusPro to prevent water intrusion below the sidewalk. Upon completion, the trip hazard was completely eliminated, and the sidewalk was fully leveled and permanently stabilized, alleviating Barbara’s concerns and providing her peace of mind.

In Port Richey, Florida, Nikolaos had noticed significant cracks forming along the exterior walls of one corner of his home, raising concerns about the stability of his foundation. To address the issue, we sent our Design Specialist to perform a full home inspection and assess the damage. The inspection revealed that the soil beneath the affected corner had settled significantly, causing the foundation to sink and resulting in the visible wall cracks.

To resolve the problem, our Design Specialist proposed a plan to stabilize the foundation and lift it back into its original position using our helical pier system. Nikolaos approved the plan, and our team got to work, carefully installing each helical pier deep into stable soil beneath the home. Once in place, the system successfully stabilized and lifted the foundation, closing the cracks in the walls.

Thanks to this permanent solution, Nikolaos can now rest easy, knowing his home is secure, with the once-worrisome cracks fully repaired.

Rodney M. noticed cracking and settlement to his sidewalk and driveway and had concerns about a foundation problem at his home in Holiday, Florida. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to see if there was an underlying issue that needed to be addressed. LRE completed a full home inspection, and through careful ground measurements and testing, determined that large voids and loose soils were causing the heavy weight of the concrete above to sink. LRE designed a solution to solve this problem using PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a polymer foam material injected through small ports in the concrete slabs that expands when in contact with soils, filling voids and strengthening the area. This material even expanded enough to lift the concrete drive close to two inches. Once the project was complete, this homeowner was happy to see his driveway and sidewalk not only lifted back to normal but permanently stabilized as well. 

Janet from Lecanto, Florida, noticed that soil erosion beneath her concrete walkways had caused uneven slabs and dangerous tripping hazards. Wanting a reliable and lasting repair, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for help. After inspecting the walkways, our Design Specialist recommended filling the voids and lifting the slabs using our PolyLevel solution. Once Janet approved the plan, our team carefully injected PolyLevel beneath the concrete, restoring the slabs to their proper level and eliminating the hazards. For additional protection, we also sealed the joints with NexusPro, preventing water intrusion and future soil erosion. Janet was thrilled with the results and thankful for our crew’s work—her walkways are now safe, level, and permanently stabilized.
