Foundation Lifted and Stabilized in Brooksville, FL

Jay and Jackie C. were experiencing settlement issues at their Brooksville, Florida home. They had cracks on their walls and noticed a gap forming between their ceiling. They wanted the problem addressed before it got any worse, so they called LRE Foundation Repair to come out and take a look. LRE assessed the damage and inspected the whole home determining loose and washed out soil conditions were to blame. LRE's specialist designed the perfect solution, and our crews got to work.  Helical piers were installed around the exterior of the home. These galvanized steel piers are mechanically driven into the ground like a corkscrew, compacting loose soils. Once in place, they are attached to the home's footer with a bracket and the weight load of the home is shifted to the piers and off the ground for additional support. In the process, the home was lifted back level again, closing the large gaps. All work was buried underground leaving no trace. The completed project left these residents extremely happy knowing their home is now permanently stabilized.
