Concrete Repair Photo Album: Lifting Settling Patio in Largo, Florida
Paul had just purchased a new home in Largo, Florida when he noticed that the back patio had significantly settled—one corner had dropped nearly three inches lower than the rest of the slab. Wanting to make the space usable again and prevent further damage, he reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.
After a thorough evaluation, we developed a tailored repair plan to fully lift and stabilize the patio. The solution included installing our helical pier system to raise the sunken section of the slab and using PolyLevel to fill any voids beneath the concrete for added support. With Paul’s approval, our team went to work—installing the piers deep beneath the patio and injecting PolyLevel to ensure permanent stability.
In no time, Paul’s patio was restored to its original level. He can now enjoy the space worry-free, knowing it’s permanently stabilized and protected for the years ahead.
