Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Repair in Longboat Key, FL

Hao had just purchased his home in Longboat Key, FL, when he noticed stair-step cracks along one side of the exterior walls. Concerned about potential structural issues, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free inspection. Our expert Design Specialist evaluated the home and determined that the foundation had settled due to unstable underlying soil. To prevent further movement and permanently stabilize the foundation, our team installed helical piers. Each pier was driven deep into the ground until it reached strong, load-bearing soil layers and was then securely bracketed to the foundation’s footer. The weight of the structure was transferred to the stable soil, and the settled section of the foundation was carefully lifted back into place, effectively closing the cracks. Hao can now settle into his new home with the reassurance that the foundation is secure and protected against future settlement damage.
