Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Repair and Stabilization in Ormond Beach, Florida
Glenn, a homeowner in Ormond Beach, Florida, began noticing large cracks forming in the walls of his Florida room addition. Concerned about potential foundation issues, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a thorough inspection. Our Design Specialist assessed the damage and determined that unstable soil beneath the addition had caused the foundation to settle.
To address the issue, we developed a comprehensive plan to install our helical pier system—designed to permanently stabilize and lift the foundation back into place. After Glenn approved the plan, our team began installing the helical piers deep into the ground until they reached stable, load-bearing soil. The piers were then securely bracketed to the foundation’s footer, allowing the weight of the structure to be transferred to the stronger soil layers below.
With the foundation successfully lifted and secured, Glenn can now rest easy knowing that the foundation of his Florida room addition is permanently stabilized and protected against future settlement.
