Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Repair in Pinellas Park, Florida
Anthony, a new homeowner in Pinellas Park, Florida, had recently purchased his house and noticed one corner of the foundation beginning to settle. Concerned about the issue, he sought to have that section of the foundation stabilized, and reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free inspection. Our Design Specialist visited Anthony’s home and upon close examination, verified that soil settlement had caused the foundation to start settling. To resolve the issue, we developed a plan to install our helical pier system, designed to lift and permanently stabilize the foundation. With Anthony’s approval, our production team installed the helical piers deep into the soil, restoring stability to the foundation. Now, Anthony can enjoy living in his new home, assured that the foundation is permanently secure.
Preparation for Helical Pier Installation
The LRE team begins the foundation repair process by first excavating soil in preparation for the installation of the helical piers.
Helical Pier Installation
The helical piers are driven deep into the ground until competent, load-bearing soil layers are reached through the use of specialized equipment.
Complete Helical Pier Installation
Once the piers have reached the appropriate soil layers, they are securely bracketed against and beneath the foundation footer to ensure permanent stabilization.
Concealing Helical Piers
After the LRE team completes the installation of the helical pier system and confirms the foundation is stabilized, they carefully cover the piers with the previously removed soil to ensure a seamless appearance.
