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.
