Photo Album: Settling Foundation Solution in Astor, FL
Jim H. from Astor, FL, had intentions of making his home his permanent residence and wanted to secure the foundation from further settlement. He reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to inquire about our foundation repair services. An expert LRE Design Specialist came out to Jim’s residence and performed a full home inspection. After identifying soil settlement as a concern, the specialist created a plan to stabilize the home with our foundation pier system. This plan includes the installation of helical piers into the soil below the home to permanently stabilize the foundation. Upon project completion, Jim was thrilled to see the permanent stabilization of his home, ensuring the long-term security of his forever home.
Soil Excavation
After the location for installation has been determined, soil is removed from the site to allow appropriate placement of the helical piers.
Helical Pier Installation
After removing the soil from the area, the helical piers are mechanically driven into the ground until they reach a layer of strong, compacted soil.
Helical Pier Foundation Support
The helical piers are now properly positioned, permanently stabilizing the home's foundation.
Job Site Clean Up
Now that the helical piers are in place and the work is complete, the final step is to backfill the previously excavated soil and cover the helical piers for a seamless appearance.
