Patsy U. lives in a retirement community in Tavares, Florida, plagued with streets of uneven sidewalks and driveways. Worried about her driveway's tripping hazards, she decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to come out and take a look. After completing a thorough inspection, our specialist found that the soil around the driveway had been eroding over time, resulting in unstable soil. As soil is washed away, it weakens the support for the concrete, in this case, causing it to sink. To get Patsy's driveway back level, our expert team used a product called PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a foam that expands underneath the concrete to fill voids and compact soils. Our team was able to successfully level Patsy's driveway so she no longer has to worry about trip hazards.
Nicholas from Floral City, Florida, noticed that the concrete slabs of his sidewalk had become severely uneven, creating a significant tripping hazard. Concerned about the safety risk, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair for help. We quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists. After inspecting the concrete, our specialist recommended lifting and leveling the sunken slabs using PolyLevel. With Nicholas’s approval, our team injected the PolyLevel solution beneath the slabs to raise and level them, while also stabilizing the underlying soil. Now, his sidewalk is completely level and secure, eliminating the trip hazard and potential for injury.
John T. has lived in his Mount Dora, Florida home for many years and was growing tired of his unlevel sidewalk. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to fix the tripping hazards once and for all. LRE completed an inspection of the property and determined cracks had formed due to the age of the concrete slab, and sandy soils had been eroded. LRE's solution included PolyLevel, which is an expanding foam material that, after injection under the concrete slab, fills the voids and compacts any loose soils while lifting the concrete back to its original state. Once the sidewalk was repaired, the homeowner was more than happy to never have to deal with tripping on an uneven sidewalk again.
Over time, the concrete driveway at Trafton's residence in Mount Dora, Florida, had exhibited increasing signs of settlement on its front side. Following a comprehensive inspection by LRE Foundation Repair, soil erosion was identified as the cause of the concrete sinking. A Design Specialist recommended the Two-Part Concrete Protection System for the homeowner to lift and permanently stabilize the driveway. First, PolyLevel was injected underneath the concrete to lift and stabilize the sunken slabs. Finally, NexusPro was applied to the cracks and joints to seal and protect them from water seeping underneath the concrete. Trafton’s driveway is now not only fully repaired but also safeguarded against any future settling issues.
Recently, we assisted Amy H. in Mount Dora, Florida, who was dealing with cracks in her home's exterior walls. These cracks indicated potential foundational issues that needed attention. Concerned about preventing further damage, Amy contacted us, and our Customer Care team quickly arranged an inspection. Our Design Specialist conducted a thorough inspection of the home's foundation and determined that the issue was due to foundation settlement, a common problem in our region due to soil conditions. To address this, we recommended installing Helical Piers, engineered steel piers designed to stabilize and lift the foundation. Helical Piers were strategically placed to support the foundation, and as a result, the cracks in the exterior walls began to close, much to Amy's relief. The outcome restored the structural integrity of her home, and our team left the site clean. Amy was satisfied with the service and the peace of mind it brought.
