Foundation Repair Photo Album: Pool Deck Foundation Stabilized in Sarasota, Florida
James, a homeowner in Sarasota, Florida, noticed that the back side of his pool deck was gradually sinking. Concerned about potential foundation issues, he reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a thorough inspection. Our Design Specialist found that soil settlement beneath the rear portion of the deck had caused the foundation to sink.
To permanently stabilize the structure, our team implemented our helical pier system. Each pier was driven deep into the ground until it reached solid, load-bearing soil, then securely bracketed to the foundation’s footer. This transferred the weight of the pool deck to stable ground, effectively halting further settlement.
Thanks to the repair, James can now enjoy his pool deck with confidence, knowing it’s permanently stabilized and protected from future damage.
