John from Titusville, Florida, noticed a significant trip hazard forming in his home’s concrete driveway, raising serious concerns about potential injuries that needed to be addressed immediately. He contacted us at LRE Foundation Repair and scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists to find an effective solution. After carefully assessing the driveway’s condition, our specialist determined that soil erosion beneath the concrete had caused the slabs to settle, resulting in an uneven surface.
To correct the issue, our team injected our PolyLevel solution directly beneath the concrete to lift and level the settling slabs. Within just a few minutes, John’s driveway was restored to a safe, even surface, and the trip hazard was fully eliminated. Now, John and his family can enjoy lasting peace of mind, knowing the risk of tripping injuries has been effectively removed.
Dan and Jane S. of Estero, Florida were tired of the cracks in their concrete walkway and were hopeful they could be sealed and smoothed out. After considering a few options, they decided to call LRE Foundation Repair for help. LRE was able to apply NexusPro to the area, a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks that not only smooths out the look of the unsightly cracks but also protects the walkway from future moisture infiltration, weed growth and damage from outside elements. NexusPro is carefully applied in cracks that have been drilled, smoothed, and ready for the product application, and finished off with a thin layer of sand to match the surrounding concrete. Once complete, the homeowners were pleased with no more cracks and a smooth finished walkway.
Michelle and Rodney B. were worried about the sudden cracks in the foundation wall of their Estero, Florida home. They decided to contact LRE Foundation Repair to get it fixed and ease their minds. After inspecting the property, LRE determined that the movement was caused by loose, shifting soils and recommended using helical piers to stabilize and repair the foundation. Helical piers are galvanized steel posts that are drilled into the ground around the problematic areas of the home and attached to the home's footer using a galvanized steel bracket. Eventually, the home rests on these piers and can even be lifted back to level. All work is buried underground or covered with concrete, becoming a permanent part of the home. The homeowners were delighted with the repaired foundation cracks and the newfound stability of their home, which gave them the peace of mind they were seeking.
Lisa had a problem with her back patio at her home in Lehigh Acres, Florida. She noticed a significant crack that had formed right down the center of the slab, which posed a potential trip hazard and looked unsightly. To fix this, she contacted LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. Upon inspection, a Design Specialist identified soil washout beneath the concrete as the root cause for the slab to settle. To address the patio's concrete, the LRE team implemented the Two-Part Concrete Protection System. They used PolyLevel to lift and level the slabs and employed NexusPro to seal the crack and prevent water intrusion. Lisa was thrilled with the outcome, as the crack is now sealed, and the settling slab has been leveled and stabilized.
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.
