Concrete Repair Photo Album: Front Porch Releveled in Auburndale, FL

Mary J. of Auburndale, Florida called LRE Foundation Repair after her front porch had sunken so much, it started causing damage to the overhanging roof above. She was worried the roof would get worse if the porch was left untreated. LRE completed a thorough inspection and designed the appropriate solution this homeowner needed. Upon inspection, LRE determined that the soils under this front porch were being washed away over time leaving large voids that couldn't handle the weight of the concrete slab. LRE designed a repair solution that used PolyLevel injection throughout the patio to lift the sunken areas and fill the voids beneath. PolyLevel is a high-density foam material that is pumped through small holes drilled into the concrete. As the material flows through the underlying soils, it expands to fill any voids and lifts areas of the concrete slab so it becomes level. After the completion of this project, the homeowner was thrilled to see her front porch leveled and could rest easy knowing her roof issues were now solved.
