Sinking Porch Restored in Ocala, FL

Sally T. contacted LRE Foundation Repair after becoming concerned that her front porch might be sinking at her home in Ocala, Florida. LRE inspected the property and observed large gaps that had formed between the concrete steps and the brick walls. The damage was caused by years of erosion and washed-out soils due lack of proper water diversion. To solve the problem, LRE's design team utilized PolyLevel, a polymer injectable material that expands on contact to lift concrete back into place. PolyLevel was injected around the affected area and closely monitored as the concrete was raised to close the gaps. Once the maximum lift was achieved, the material quickly cured, enabling LRE to finish the job by adding a new drainage system. Sally was thrilled with the results and can now rest easy knowing her porch is permanently stabilized and protected from future settlement.
