John, a homeowner in Brooksville, Florida, began noticing cracks forming in the walls of his garage that seemed to worsen over time. Concerned about the stability of his home’s foundation, he reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a complimentary inspection. One of our expert Design Specialists conducted a thorough evaluation and confirmed that soil settlement beneath the foundation was causing it to shift, resulting in the visible wall cracks. To resolve the issue, our team installed our helical pier system to lift and permanently stabilize the affected section of the garage. Within a short amount of time, the cracks began to close, and the foundation’s stability was restored. Grateful for the professional work and lasting solution, John now has peace of mind knowing his home’s foundation is now permanently stabilized.
Large cracks had developed in the walls of an apartment complex in Brooksville, FL, prompting the property owners to contact LRE Foundation Repair for a professional inspection. We scheduled a free appointment with one of our Design Specialists, who visited the property to evaluate the condition of the building's foundation.
Upon completing the inspection, our specialist determined that significant soil settlement beneath the structure had caused the foundation to settle, resulting in the wall cracking. To permanently stabilize the foundation and restore it to its proper position, we developed a repair plan that included the installation of our helical pier system.
Our team carefully advanced each helical pier deep into the ground until strong, stable soil layers were reached. The piers were then bracketed to the foundation footing, transferring the weight of the structure away from the unstable soil and onto the more competent layers below.
Once the foundation was fully stabilized, our team carefully lifted the settled sections toward their original position, significantly reducing the wall cracks. Now, the property owners can have confidence knowing their apartment complex has been permanently stabilized, helping provide a safe and secure environment for their tenants.
Brandon in Brooksville, FL, began noticing cracks spreading throughout his home’s walls, raising concerns about possible foundation issues. He reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free inspection to hopefully uncover the issue and find a reliable repair solution.
Our Design Specialist visited Brandon’s home and confirmed that foundation settlement had occurred due to the underlying soil becoming unstable. To correct the issue, we designed a repair plan using our helical pier system to permanently stabilize and lift the foundation.
Our team installed the piers deep into stable, load-bearing soil and secured them to the foundation footing, allowing us to carefully lift the settled areas back into place.
With the home stabilized and the wall cracks closed, Brandon now has the assurance that his home is safe, secure, and permanently stabilized.

Natalia I. has lived in her old St. Petersburg, Florida home for years and was experiencing settlement to her foundation with visible damage to the exterior brick walls. She wanted to make sure there were no other underlying problems with the home, so she called LRE Foundation Repair to find out. LRE completed an inspection and determined shifting and unstable soil conditions plagued this home and designed a solution that consisted of helical pier installation around the exterior, coupled with PolyLevel injection. Helical piers are galvanized steel tubes that are drilled into the soil and affixed to the home with metal brackets. The piers were able to gently lift the side of the home to stabilize and relevel the structure. Next, PolyLevel, an expandable polyurethane material, was injected into the soils to compact them and fill in any possible voids. These two systems are often used to work together to stabilize foundations for years to come. This homeowner was not only happy with the end result and finished project, but relieved to not have to worry about her home anymore.
