Gary, troubled by increasing concerns about water pooling around his driveway and foundation, sought the assistance of LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. An LRE Design Specialist visited his home in Inverness, Florida, for a full-home inspection and devised a plan to install an effective drainage system to route water away from his home. The LRE team installed a channel drain in the driveway designed to collect excess rainwater and direct it to a pop-up relief drain located at the far end of the property. Upon completing the installation, Gary felt relieved to have an effective solution in place, safeguarding his home from potential flood damage.
Sections of Andre’s concrete front patio of their Inverness, Florida, home had become uneven, with some areas having sunk almost an inch. Wanting to avoid any potential injuries from the trip hazards, Andre reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to find a reliable fix. Our Design Specialist visited their home and inspected the patio, verifying that the concrete had sunk due to settlement of the underlying soil. Our production team utilized PolyLevel to lift and level the sunken slabs by directly injecting the polymer foam underneath the concrete. Now Andre’s patio is not only back to it’s proper level, but the concrete is also permanently stabilized.
Glenn D. of Inverness, Florida was recovering from health issues and was growing concerned about the concrete walkways around his house. The concrete had settled leaving uneven areas and tripping hazards. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to fix his walkway and give him peace of mind. LRE completed an inspection around the home, taking careful measurements of the voids that had formed under the slab over time due to washed out soils. LRE designed a solution that comprised injecting PolyLevel into small holes in the concrete around the walkway. PolyLevel is a two-part, expanding foam material that fills voids, compacts soils, and lifts concrete slabs back in place. Once the project was completed, the homeowner could finally rest easy, feeling safe to walk around his home without issue.
Richard P. in DeBary, Florida, sought the assistance of LRE Foundation Repair to eliminate a trip hazard that had developed in the concrete driveway of his home. Recognizing soil washout as the root cause of the sinking and uneven concrete slabs, LRE applied their PolyLevel Solution to lift and stabilize the affected areas. Now that the trip hazard has been eliminated, Richard can experience a sense of relief, knowing that both he and others are no longer at risk of injury.
Constance and Ben H. had been dealing with musty smells inside their home for a while and thought it might be coming from the crawlspace beneath the house. They decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to try and get rid of the smells once and for all. Upon an inspection in the crawlspace, LRE determined moisture damage, wood rot, and mold had arisen from a leaky pipe in the bathroom above. After the leak was fixed, LRE was able to treat and protect the wood in the crawlspace using a product called LumberKote. LumberKote is a subfloor polymer sealer solution that is non-toxic and resists mold, fungus, and other wood damage due to moisture. It protects the home in a one-step application process directly on the wood framing, drying quickly and leaving a protective coating behind. After the project was complete, these homeowners were happy with their cleaned crawlspace and odor-free home.
