Amanda from Haines City, FL, called LRE Foundation Repair to request an inspection of her home's elevated enclosed back porch after noticing that it appeared to be gradually sinking. Following a complimentary inspection performed by one of our local expert Design Specialists, it was discovered that the underlying soil had been gradually settling over time due to heavy rainfall. Our team implemented our helical pier system, installing each pier deep into stable soil layers beneath the surface along the perimeter of the foundation to permanently stabilize the structure. Once each pier was installed, our team carefully concealed them with the previously removed soil to provide a seamless appearance. Now, Amanda can rest assured knowing that her elevated back porch is permanently stabilized and protected against future settlement issues.
Settling Foundation of Enclosed Porch
The homeowner became concerned about the structural stability of their elevated enclosed porch after noticing signs of settlement.
Bowing Walls
One noticeable sign that the elevated porch's foundation was settling was the bowing of the exterior walls.
Helical Pier Installation
The LRE team installs each helical pier by driving it deep into the ground with specialized equipment until it reaches stable, load-bearing soil.
Complete Helical Pier Installation
The helical piers are now fully installed, permanently stabilizing the foundation. The LRE team will then conceal each pier with the previously removed soil to restore a seamless appearance.
