Foundation Stabilization in New Port Richey, FL

Maureen R. was experiencing severe damage to her New Port Richey, Florida home and decided to call LRE Foundation Repair once moisture started infiltrating the cracks inside her house. LRE completed a full home inspection, working with engineers to test the soils underneath the home. They discovered this over 50-year-old home was sitting on soils compromised by buried, decaying organics that affected its strength to support the home's foundation. LRE designed a solution that consisted of helical pier installation to the inside and around the outside of the home. These galvanized steel piers were carefully drilled into the soils at appropriate locations, compacting and strengthening the areas. Each pier was attached to the home's foundation with brackets allowing the load to be shifted from the unstable soils onto the pier system. Once the project was complete, this homeowner was more than pleased to see many of the cracks diminished and could rest easy knowing her home is now stabilized permanently.
