Foundation Repair Photo Album: Permanent Foundation Stabilization in Titusville, FL
Paula from Titusville, FL, noticed cracks appearing in the brick exterior walls of her home and reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to request a full home inspection. Our Customer Care team scheduled a free appointment with one of our local Design Specialists, who visited Paula's home to take a closer look at the damage.
After a thorough inspection, our specialist confirmed that one side of the home had settled and recommended permanently stabilizing the affected section of the foundation with our helical pier system. Paula chose to move forward with the repair, and our team got to work.
We began by excavating the soil around the affected side of the home to expose the foundation footer. Each helical pier was then carefully driven deep into the ground until stable, load-bearing soil layers were reached. Once installed, the piers were bracketed to the foundation footer, allowing the weight of the home to be transferred to the stronger soil below and providing permanent stabilization.
Paula was thrilled to know her home was now permanently protected against further settlement, giving her lasting peace of mind for years to come.
Exterior Wall Cracks
Extensive stair-step pattern cracks had developed within the brick exterior walls of the home due to settlement of the underlying soil.
Installing Helical Piers
The LRE team drives helical piers deep beneath the foundation until they reach strong, load-bearing soil layers.
Complete Helical Pier Installation
The helical piers are fully installed by the LRE team and bracketed to the foundation's footer, where the weight of the home is now successfully transferred to the stable soil layers deep below the surface.
Complete Foundation Repair
With the helical pier system fully installed by the LRE team, the home's foundation is now permanently stabilized. The previously excavated soil will be replaced to conceal the helical piers and provide a seamless appearance.
