LRE Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Koltan of Orlando, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair for assistance in designing a new, effective drainage system after experiencing repeated flooding on his home's back patio. After completing a thorough full home inspection for Koltan, one of our knowledgeable Design Specialists advised him that standing water was not only a regular annoyance but also had a detrimental effect on his home's foundation and concrete. To alleviate the flooding issue, a plan was devised to install a sturdy channel drain that would run the whole length of the patio's concrete. Our team went to work, carefully measuring and removing the appropriate amount of concrete to correctly install the new channel drain, providing the patio with the perfect solution for eliminating any standing water. Koltan's patio is now appropriately equipped to weather strong rainstorms, and he can rest assured that his home's foundation and concrete are no longer at risk.

Daniel's concrete pool deck behind his home in Orlando, Florida had developed numerous cracks and the surface had also become uneven. He knew he had to address the issue before the problem became worse, so he reached out to LRE Foundation Repair after learning about the concrete pool deck repair services offered. An LRE Design Specialist came out to Daniel’s home, conducted a comprehensive inspection of the pool deck, and verified that soil erosion had taken place under the concrete. To level out the concrete and eliminate any potential trip hazards, the LRE team injected the PolyLevel solution underneath the pool deck to elevate and level the settling sections. Upon completion, Daniel was relieved to see that his concrete pool deck was now not only leveled but also permanently stabilized.

Large stair-step wall cracks gradually began appearing in a corner of David’s home in Dade City, Florida, prompting him to seek an inspection from LRE Foundation Repair to diagnose potential foundation issues. We sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a full home inspection, and they discovered that soil settlement beneath this side of the home had caused foundation instability.

To address the issue, our Design Specialist developed a plan to install a helical pier system beneath the affected side of the home to lift and stabilize the foundation permanently. With David’s approval, our team carefully installed each helical pier deep into the ground until reaching stronger soil layers. The home's weight was then transferred to these stable layers, effectively securing the foundation. Finally, our team successfully lifted the settling foundation back into place, closing the wall cracks.

Now with the wall cracks closed, David can enjoy peace of mind knowing that his home is fully secure and permanently stabilized.

Chris P. was struggling with the area outside of his detached garage in Hudson, Florida. Every time it rained, water would pool up on the concrete pad and seep into the garage. Frustrated, he called LRE Foundation Repair for the solution. LRE inspected the area, determined poor grading was the main cause, and designed a solution by installing a new drainage system, including French drain. This system is quite common and works to filter water away from the affected area and disperse it back out into the yard. Once complete, everything is buried underground and the homeowner was pleased with the clean look and his flooding problems solved. 

Seeking to preserve and enhance the concrete walkway of her home in Hudson, Florida, Sharon reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. Following a full inspection by one of our Design Specialists, a plan was created to implement our Three-Part Concrete Protection System to fully stabilize and enhance Sharon’s concrete walkway. First, our team utilized PolyLevel to fully level and stabilize the concrete slabs. Next, the joints in the concrete were sealed with NexusPro to prevent water from seeping underneath the walkway. Finally, DecoShield was applied to the surface to seal and protect the concrete from flaking, chipping, and staining, while also adding a uniform light grey tint to enhance the walkway’s visual appeal. Sharon’s concrete driveway is now not only fully protected from wear and tear but also features a refreshed and enhanced appearance.
