Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Repair in Tavares, Florida
In Tavares, Florida, Michael began noticing cracks forming in the walls of his home’s addition—damage that appeared after nearby construction activity caused the foundation to shift and settle. Looking for a reliable solution, he reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair. Our Customer Care team promptly scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.
During the inspection, our specialist confirmed that the soil beneath the addition had become unstable, leading to foundation movement. To permanently stabilize the structure, we recommended installing our helical pier system. Michael approved the plan, and our crew got to work—driving each pier deep into the ground until reaching solid, load-bearing soil. The piers were then securely bracketed to the foundation’s footer, transferring the weight of the structure to the more stable layers below.
With the project complete, Michael now has lasting peace of mind knowing his home’s addition is fully supported and protected against future settlement.
Helical Pier Installation Prep
To prepare the helical pier installation process, the LRE team first excavates soil to reveal the foundation's footer.
Installing Helical Piers
With the use of specialized equipment, the LRE team installs each helical pier deep into the ground beneath the foundation.
Stabilizing Foundation
The helical piers have been driven to the appropriate depth and securely bracketed to the foundation's footer. Next, the weight of the home will be carefully transferred to the deep, load-bearing soil layers, ensuring permanent stabilization.
Complete Helical Pier Installation
With the helical piers fully installed and the foundation now permanently stabilized, the LRE team will carefully backfill the area with the previously removed soil and replace the pavers-restoring a clean, seamless appearance.
