When Zelda from Mascotte, Florida, noticed cracks forming in her walls and ceiling, she knew it could be a sign of foundation trouble. That’s when she called LRE Foundation Repair for help. After a thorough inspection by one of our expert Design Specialists, we developed a plan to permanently stabilize her home using our trusted helical pier system.   In this video, hear from Zelda herself as she shares her experience—from the initial inspection to the final cleanup. She was especially impressed by how respectful and professional our crew was, taking care to preserve the look of her home and leave the job site spotless.   Thank you, Zelda, for trusting us and for recommending LRE Foundation Repair!

Julianne, a homeowner in Auburndale, Florida, called LRE Foundation Repair after noticing damage to the concrete around her pool deck and cracks forming on the side of her home. Our expert Design Specialist quickly discovered large voids beneath the pool deck and near her bay window, causing the concrete slabs to settle and the exterior walls to crack.   To fix this issue, our team injected PolyLevel — a high-density, fast-expanding foam — beneath the affected slabs. This lifted and leveled the sunken concrete, filled the voids, and effectively closed the cracks in the walls.   Julianne was thrilled with the outcome and was happy to share her experience working with the LRE team. She can now enjoy peace of mind knowing her home is permanently stabilized and protected from future damage!

Sandi P. from DeLand, FL, shares her exceptional experience with the LRE team as they repaired her concrete driveway.

I have an older home in an historic area in Tampa that had sagging floors and needed a fair amount of foundation repair work. Needless to say, I wanted it done properly, so, I decided to get 5 companies in to quote. After receiving all the quotes and planned proposals for repairing the foundations, there was no doubt in my mind that LRE Foundation Repair was by far the best company for me to go with, for several reasons. Before they came out to access and quote, LRE mailed me an 81 page booklet on foundation problems and repairs – published by an independent company - Foundation Supportworks. This gave me a good understanding of different foundation problems and why they happen, including sagging floors - and the best way to go about fixing them. There was also great information on various jacks and piers and when to use what etc. which was invaluable to me when looking at what the other companies had proposed. The Design Specialist LRE sent out to access the situation and to give a proposed plan and quote was someone who had years of experience doing the actual work. This guy was Zac Spardello. His professionalism and customer service goes beyond the expected. He took photos, liasoned with their engineering dept before he came up with a definite planned proposal and quote. Zac took time explaining to me what was wrong and had images of everything including problem areas, and how and why they proposed fixing it in certain ways, along with the with the information I had gained from the booklet. When I compared his proposed plan to the others, it was clear that he really knew what he was talking about. Other companies had in some cases sent out Estimators who clearly had never done the actual work and it showed as they had given very generalized solutions, when I compared plans. LRE was the only co who had a combination of replacing areas of old wood plus adding additional wood as well as jacks and metal beams, along with repairing/ replacing 4 brick block columns, and redoing the subfloor in certain areas. Some companies proposed only adding wood, others only metal, and this combination of materials that LRE proposed seemed to cover all basis. Permits. LRE was ready to go with permits within about a month, and they gave me a definite starting date within days. I was told by most other companies I’d have to wait at least 6 weeks to get the permits, and one company said they didn’t need it as their solution only required jacks. Which is probably fine in some instances but in this case where I knew a fair amount of work was needed, I felt better about having permits. With LRE, everything was done to code and with engineering reports. LRE also offers a 25-year guarantee which is transferable to the new owner if the house is ever sold. They also offered a 5% discount if I signed with a certain time frame. They were not the cheapest nor were they the most expensive, all adding up to why I chose them. In conclusion, the work was done on time and the results were even better than I expected. I was not in Tampa during this time, I was kept in the loop with updates by phone and photos. A big thank you to Zac for all his help and support, as well as Tavian the foreman, and his team who did all the work. An added bonus is that a few weeks later I got a call from a co that was going to spray the soil under the house which would take care of any termites as the soil had been disrupted with the foundation work, which was all paid for by LRE as part of their repair package.

Drainage issues have always been a problem at our house for a few years now due to new construction altering the dispersion of water on our block. After attempting several solutions, including a standard french drain, we finally looked for a drainage solution we could rely on to handle the amount of water we get in Central Florida. From the first visit, I could tell these folks know their craft. They designed a custom solution, and within a few weeks we had a crew out to install new underground drains, a buried pump and EZ-Flow system. The crew was friendly, very professional, and efficient. Despite a lot of digging and stone hauling, Antonio and his crew barely left a trace -- even carefully replacing the sod. Antonio also took time to demo the drainage system with a garden hose for me and I'm almost looking forward to a torrential down pour to see this system in action. I can't recommend this service enough! We also decided to have LRE encapsulate our crawlspace and add a dehumidifier to it. Michael and that crew spent a few days in that crawlspace taking care to get it cleaned out and then sealed off with a dehumidifier. They were also very professional and friendly and as someone with a bit of claustrophobia, the fact they always had a smile on their faces when speaking with me was extra impressive! The house is already less damp feeling on cool days.

Never having had this scope of sinkhole repair work done on my house before, I can't compare LRE Foundation Repair' employees with workers from other companies, but after the job they did, if I had to go through it again, I would request the very same LRE crew. They were all good workers - and supervisors. They were particularly effective and seemed to know their jobs and went about their jobs very efficiently and effectively. My wife and I were very pleased with their sinkhole repair work.

All LRE Foundation Repair crew members were polite and very respectful. Victor Feeley did an outstanding job of helping us and resolving issues as they arose. Thank you LRE for helping us through the sinkhole repair process.

Your project representative, Derek Penkava, spent a lot of time at our home explaining the process and bought up small details other companies failed to mention. We are most impressed by LRE's reputation in the industry and years of experience remediating sinkholes. Your competitors even talk highly of your company.
