David W. called LRE concerned after noticing his front porch sinking and cracks growing larger quickly. LRE completed a full inspection of David's house located in Port Orange, FL, and determined that animal borings had significantly compromised the soil beneath his porch. To remedy David's issues, our team injected PolyLevel underneath the patio slab to strengthen and stabilize the soil. PolyLevel is a highly expandable foam material injected through very small drill holes in the concrete. As the material flows and mixes with the soil, it expands to fill all voids and starts to lift the concrete back into place. After this porch was treated, this homeowner could rest easy knowing his porch was stabilized and even, leaving only the Florida pests to deal with.
In Port Orange, Florida, Paul’s pool deck required a more effective drainage solution after he noticed water pooling in the area following heavy rainstorms. After reaching out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free appointment, we sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a thorough inspection of his pool deck. Our specialist determined that the pre-existing channel drain embedded in the pool deck’s concrete had become damaged over time and no longer provided sufficient drainage.
A plan was created to implement a new drainage solution, which involved replacing the old channel drain with an enhanced version designed to collect and divert excess rainwater to a pop-up relief drain located away from the pool deck. After presenting this new solution to Paul, our production team quickly began the installation process, carefully removing and replacing the old channel drain with the more effective drainage system. Paul’s pool deck is now equipped with the right solution to prevent water from pooling, effectively protecting both the concrete and the foundation of his home.
Frank B. contacted LRE Foundation Repair after learning about our wide range of concrete services. He specifically wanted to address the cracks in his driveway and have the area resurfaced and re-leveled. LRE conducted a full inspection of his home and noted that the majority of the damage was caused by shifting and washed-out soils as well as the age of the property. LRE immediately addressed all of the homeowner's concerns. Our team first used PolyLevel, an expanding polyurethane foam material, to inject underneath the concrete driveway, which lifted and re-leveled it while permanently stabilizing the area. Next, LRE used NexusPro and DecoShield, two products used together to fix and protect the driveway for years to come. NexusPro is a silicone-based crack sealer, and DecoShield is a tinted protective coating applied to the whole driveway. Once the project was complete, the homeowner was thrilled with the outcome and happy that his driveway looked like new again.
Theodore from DeLand, Florida, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance with his concrete walkway, where a couple of slabs had sunken and created a tripping hazard. Following a thorough inspection by one of our expert Design Specialists, it was discovered that significant soil erosion beneath the walkway had caused the slabs to settle. A plan was devised to fully level and stabilize the uneven slabs with our PolyLevel solution. Our team promptly injected the PolyLevel solution beneath the sunken slabs, filling the voids, stabilizing the surrounding soil, and lifting the uneven slabs back to their original, level position. With his concrete walkway now fully leveled and permanently stabilized, Theodore can feel at ease now that the tripping hazard has been completely eliminated.
