A homeowner in Longwood, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair after noticing that their large concrete patio slab, which supported their home’s AC unit, was separating from the house and sinking into the soil. Concerned about the structural integrity of the patio, they scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.
During the assessment, we discovered that significant soil erosion, caused by rainwater runoff from the roof, had compromised the slab’s stability. To provide a lasting solution, our team installed a helical pier system around the patio’s foundation, ensuring durable support and preventing further settlement.
Upon completion of the project, the homeowner was relieved to see the gap between the patio and the home fully closed, knowing their patio slab is now permanently stabilized and secure.
Brian G. of Sanford, Florida was in need of replacing his roof, but was worried there were underlying issues with his foundation due to large cracks in his exterior brick walls. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to assess the damage and troubleshoot the foundation before he went through the expense of a roof replacement. We completed a whole home inspection and determined voids under the house caused by unstable and washed-out soil conditions were contributing to the movement and sinking of his foundation. We designed a solution to this problem by installing helical piers to support the foundation and injecting PolyLevel to fill the voids and stabilize the soils. Once the repair was complete, the homeowner was thrilled with the lift achieved to his home, bringing it back to level, and is now ready to tackle the roof without worry.
Erica in Winter Park, Florida, had noticed numerous cracks forming in both the interior and exterior walls of her home over the past couple of years. Concerned about potential foundation issues, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a thorough inspection. Upon visiting her home, our Design Specialist discovered that roots from a large oak tree next to the house had pushed against the foundation, causing instability and resulting in the cracks in the walls. After Erica had the tree removed, our team stepped in and installed our helical pier system along the affected side of the home to stabilize and lift the foundation back to its proper position, effectively closing the cracks. Erica was thrilled with the results and expressed great appreciation for our team’s efforts, as her home is now permanently stabilized.
