This homeowner located in Dunedin, Florida called LRE after growing concerns about the fast-advancing stairstep cracking on their home. Over the past year, the homeowner began noticing the cracks getting longer and wider. LRE installed piers under the footer of the home to permanently stabilize the foundation while working to close those noticeable gaps on the exterior of the home. The homeowner can now be at ease knowing their foundation is permanently stabilized for years to come.
After noticing growing cracks in the exterior walls of her New Port Richey, Florida home, Torrey knew something wasn’t right. Over the span of a year, the damage had become too serious to ignore. Concerned about potential structural issues, she reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair for help.
Our team promptly sent out one of our expert Design Specialists to perform a full home inspection. The inspection revealed that the soil beneath Torrey’s home had settled, causing the foundation to shift and become unstable, ultimately resulting in the cracks that had formed in her walls.
To address the issue, we designed a tailored plan using our helical pier system to permanently stabilize and lift the foundation back into its proper position. Once Torrey approved this plan, our crew carefully installed the piers deep below the home until they reached solid, load-bearing soil. The piers were then secured to the foundation’s footer, allowing us to transfer the home’s weight and lift the structure back to its original position.
As a result, the foundation was fully stabilized, and the cracks that once worried Torrey were successfully closed. With the repair complete, she can now feel confident that her home is protected for the future.
Basil, from Tarpon Springs, Florida, knew their home had serious foundation issues when severe cracking appeared on the exterior walls. Following a thorough full-home inspection by a Design Specialist from LRE Foundation Repair, it was determined that major soil settlement had caused the foundation to become unstable. Helical piers were installed by the LRE team to lift the foundation back into its original position, effectively closing the wall cracks and providing permanent stabilization. Seeing the wall cracks closed, Basil’s family can feel safe knowing that their home’s foundation is now secure.
Dave from Largo, Florida, became increasingly worried after spotting large gaps appearing between the stair steps of his home’s front porch staircase, leading him to suspect the structure’s foundation was settling. Concerned about safety and further damage, he reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair for help.
Our Design Specialist visited Dave’s property to take a closer look and quickly identified the root of the problem: the soil beneath the stairs had settled, compromising the structure’s support and causing it to sink. We proposed a permanent repair solution that consisted of installing our helical pier system to lift the staircase and permanently restore its stability.
After reviewing the plan and giving our team his approval, Dave observed as our crew got to work. The helical piers were installed deep into solid, load-bearing soil, and the staircase was carefully lifted back to its proper position. With the gaps closed and the structure secured, Dave can now enjoy lasting peace of mind, knowing his front entry’s staircase is once again safe and secure.
