Foundation Lift and Repair in Tampa, FL

Kent H. in Tampa, Florida was experiencing significant cracking to the exterior stucco of his home. With growing concerns there may be a problem, he called LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. After a thorough inspection of the home, LRE was able to determine the main cause of the foundation settlement was due to unstable soils underneath the home. To compact and stabilize the underlying soils, LRE used a two-part deep injection chemical grout. This material expands to compact the underlying soils while strengthening the area as well. LRE also installed helical piers to the side of the home in order to gain lift to the structure, closing some of the cracks in the exterior stucco. Helical piers are advanced deep into the soil and connected to the home's foundation to allow lift to occur. Once the job was complete, Kent H. was extremely pleased to see his home restored and foundation stabilized for years to come.
