Repairing Foundation Settlement Wall Cracks in St. Petersburg, FL

Lindsay from St. Petersburg, FL, was preparing to sell her home and needed to have the foundation repaired after noticing large cracks developing in the exterior walls. After contacting LRE Foundation Repair, our Customer Care team quickly scheduled a complimentary inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists in the area.

Following a closer inspection of Lindsay’s foundation, it was clear that the soil beneath the foundation had settled, causing it to shift and resulting in cracks along the walls. A comprehensive repair plan was created that involved installing helical piers to stabilize the foundation and lift it back toward its original position.

Once Lindsay reviewed and approved the plan, our team began carefully installing each helical pier deep into the ground until they reached strong, load-bearing soil layers. Once in place, each pier was bracketed to the foundation's footer, allowing our team to carefully lift and stabilize the foundation.

As a result, the wall cracks closed, providing visible evidence of the foundation's successful stabilization and repair.
