Jay and Jackie C. were experiencing settlement issues at their Brooksville, Florida home. They had cracks on their walls and noticed a gap forming between their ceiling. They wanted the problem addressed before it got any worse, so they called LRE Foundation Repair to come out and take a look. LRE assessed the damage and inspected the whole home determining loose and washed out soil conditions were to blame. LRE's specialist designed the perfect solution, and our crews got to work. Helical piers were installed around the exterior of the home. These galvanized steel piers are mechanically driven into the ground like a corkscrew, compacting loose soils. Once in place, they are attached to the home's footer with a bracket and the weight load of the home is shifted to the piers and off the ground for additional support. In the process, the home was lifted back level again, closing the large gaps. All work was buried underground leaving no trace. The completed project left these residents extremely happy knowing their home is now permanently stabilized.
Jere observed that the brick chimney of his Brooksville, Florida, home had gradually been pulling away from his home over time, raising significant concerns. Recognizing the urgency of addressing this issue before it could get worse, he called upon LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. After identifying weak soil as the cause of the settling chimney, LRE lifted it back into its original position by installing a series of helical piers. Jere was thrilled to see his chimney saved and permanently stabilized, knowing that a potential disaster had been averted.

Jere H. and his son noticed the chimney of their home was tilting away and detaching from the house. They did all they could to try to secure it, but had no luck. Jere H. called our team at LRE Foundation Repair in hopes of a solution as he wished to keep the original structure of this old Brooksville, Florida home. We inspected the property and noted poor soil conditions were the cause of the massive movement. The solution? Helical piers. Helical piers are galvanized steel piers anchored into the ground compacting and stabilizing the surrounding soil. Once the piers were deep enough, they were attached to the chimney and hydraulically adjusted to lift the chimney back into place. This system permanently stabilized the structure leaving this homeowner and his family relieved that they could keep their home intact for years to come.
