Brenten H. experienced a large amount of damage to his Bonita Springs, Florida, home when a recent storm hit. He called LRE because he was concerned about the large cracks on the side of his house as well as the sinking foundation. After the initial inspection, LRE Foundation Repair was able to determine the main cause of damage from this storm: loose soils and erosion that led to large voids under the house. LRE's plan of action included the installation of helical piers around the exterior that were driven into the soil and attached to the foundation. These galvanized steel piers not only added to the stability of the structure but also assisted in closing the cracks and carefully lifting the side of the home. Next, LRE used PolyLevel, a two-part expanding foam material, to fill the voids underneath the home, further increasing stability. Once the project was complete, this homeowner was ecstatic to not have to worry about future damage or settlement to his property.
Severe settlement damage had caused large cracks to form throughout the walls of Kathleen’s home in Margate, Florida, prompting her to seek assistance from LRE Foundation Repair. After a thorough home inspection by one of our expert Design Specialists, it was determined that the underlying soil beneath the home had become unstable, resulting in foundation settlement. To provide a comprehensive repair solution, our team implemented a push pier system to permanently stabilize the foundation and lift it back into its proper position. Each pier was strategically installed around the foundation, successfully stabilizing the home and closing the wall cracks. Now, Kathleen can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing her home is permanently stabilized and protected from further settlement damage.
Erin in Coral Springs, Florida, was planning to have renovations done on her home and knew she needed to have her foundation inspected first after noticing several cracks in her walls. She reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair and scheduled a free appointment with one of our expert Design Specialists to help identify any issues. Upon close examination, our Specialist discovered that significant soil settlement beneath the home had compromised the foundation's integrity, resulting in the walls cracking. The specialist crafted a plan to fully stabilize the home and lift the foundation back into its proper position with our push pier system. Erin agreed to the plan, and our production team promptly began installing each push pier deep into the soil beneath the foundation. These piers successfully transferred the weight of the home to the solid bedrock below, effectively stabilizing and lifting the foundation back into position and closing the wall cracks. With her foundation permanently stabilized, Erin can now look forward to completing her home’s renovations.
After noticing multiple hairline cracks forming in the exterior walls of his home, Mark from Oakland Park, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a free foundation inspection. During the assessment, our Design Specialist confirmed that soil settlement had occurred beneath the home, compromising its stability. To provide a lasting solution, we recommended installing our push pier system to permanently stabilize the foundation.
Mark approved the plan, and our team quickly got to work, installing push piers beneath the foundation to transfer the home's weight to solid bedrock and lift it back into its proper position.
After the installation, Mark was thrilled to see that the cracks in his walls had closed. Now, he can enjoy lasting peace of mind, knowing his foundation is secure for years to come.
