LRE Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Christine’s concrete driveway in Sarasota, Florida was in need of serious repair due to significant cracking and settling on the front side. Seeking reliable concrete driveway repair services, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. An LRE Design Specialist visited her home, examined the driveway, and advised her that the concrete could be restored using the Two-Part Concrete Protection System. This comprehensive solution, comprising PolyLevel to raise and level the sunken sections, along with NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints, successfully restored the driveway after its implementation by the LRE team. Christine can now feel relieved knowing that her driveway's concrete didn't require replacement and is now permanently stabilized against future settlement damage.

Kevin, a homeowner in Sarasota, Florida, became concerned about the structural support in his crawl space after noticing widening gaps forming between his floors and adjacent walls over time. After calling us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, we quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists to help identify any potential issues. 

Upon entering the crawl space, our specialist observed that the wooden support joists had developed a noticeable slope, caused by the weight above and inadequate support below, as several block piers appeared to have settled. 

A plan was created by our Design Specialist to provide durable and permanent support to the floor joists and lift them back into place with our SmartJack system. Kevin agreed to the plan, and our production team promptly began installing each SmartJack in key areas of the crawl space. This effective solution restored the floor joists to their proper position, eliminating the gaps between the floors and adjacent walls. 

Kevin can now rest easy knowing that the structural support in his crawl space has been permanently stabilized and his home is secure.

The floors inside Kevin's home in Sarasota, Florida, had started to gradually sink, with large gaps forming between the floorboards and the adjacent walls and door frames. Concerned about potential structural issues in the crawl space beneath his home, he contacted us at LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection. Our expert Design Specialist inspected the crawl space and immediately identified that the block piers supporting the home’s floor joists had settled, causing the joists to slope. To provide permanent support and stabilization, our team installed our state-of-the-art SmartJack system in key areas of the crawl space. Now, Kevin’s floors are level, and the gaps have been permanently closed.

LRE Foundation Repair was the approved contractor for a commercial project in Sarasota, Florida, where a group of condos were experiencing significant cracking to the interior and exterior of buildings. LRE worked closely with engineers to determine the cause of the damage, the scope of work, and the solution to eliminate any future damages down the road. Due to shifting and unstable soil conditions, this project required the installation of high-strength galvanized steel tubes, called push piers, that were affixed to a bracket secured to a building's footer, and then hydraulically driven down to competent soil. The building's weight was distributed to these piers allowing for stability and lift, which also closed large cracks. Once the buildings were permanently stabilized, soils were backfilled and the project site was cleaned. The clients, and homeowners, were pleased with the finished product and foundationally-sound building repairs. 

LRE Foundation Repair was hired to complete a commercial project for a condo association out of Sarasota, Florida. The buildings there were experiencing significant cracks inside and out and LRE designed the perfect remediation for this project. Due to unstable and shifting soils underneath the foundation of these condos, LRE had to install steel tube push piers, which are galvanized piers hydraulically driven into the ground until they reach bedrock or competent soils. This allows the heavy loads from buildings above to be transferred to these piers rather than unstable ground. These piers were secured to brackets, which are also attached to the buildings, whereby all piers can be lifted together to stabilize and relevel structures, closing the existing cracks on the walls. Once the project was complete, the association of homeowners were pleased their homes were stabilized once and for all.
