Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner located in Dunedin, Florida called LRE after growing concerns about the fast-advancing stairstep cracking on their home. Over the past year, the homeowner began noticing the cracks getting longer and wider. LRE installed piers under the footer of the home to permanently stabilize the foundation while working to close those noticeable gaps on the exterior of the home. The homeowner can now be at ease knowing their foundation is permanently stabilized for years to come. 

Jeffrey D. purchased his home in Safety Harbor, Florida that had previous work performed due to sinkhole-related damage. Over the course of the past few months, he started seeing additional settlement damage on one side of his house and wanted to address it before the damage could get any worse. He called LRE Foundation Repair for an assessment and recommendation on how to fix the foundation cracks in his walls. LRE completed the inspection, reviewing the previous work that had been performed, and noted shifting soils and expansive clays were causing the present problem. The LRE team injected the PolyLevel solution into the affected areas of the home to lift and level the interior concrete slabs and stabilize the soil underneath. Upon completion, the cracks were closed and Jeffrey was thrilled with the results, happy that his home was now stabilized for good. 

Kari R. called us at LRE Foundation Repair to stabilize her Safety Harbor, Florida, home. She was concerned about the unsettling gaps in the walls and ceilings—clear signs of an unstable foundation. Recognizing the need for a permanent solution, we stepped in to help. Our production technicians expertly installed interior helical piers throughout the home, addressing these alarming issues and stabilizing the foundation permanently. This piering system successfully lifted and re-leveled the foundation, closing most of the cracks and providing long-term stability. Although some cosmetic damages remain, Kari can rest easy knowing her foundation is permanently stabilized.

Noticing a significant gap between the ceiling and walls in her garage, Kari from Safety Harbor, Florida, became understandably concerned and reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. An expert Design Specialist conducted a full home inspection and created a plan to install interior slab helical piers to lift and stabilize the settling area of the foundation. Our team carefully drilled the piers through the interior slab and deep into the soil beneath the foundation until they reached stronger, load-bearing layers. A slab bracket was then installed around the pier, transferring the weight of the interior slab to the stronger soils below. This effectively lifted the slab back into place, closing the gap between the walls and ceiling and providing permanent stabilization. With the gap now closed and slab stabilized, Keri can now have peace of mind knowing the foundation beneath her feet is completely secured.

Todd F. contacted LRE to assess the severity of the settlement occurring at his home in Lakeland, Florida. Todd was concerned about the cracks throughout his home, most noticeably on the exterior walls and interior floor tiles. A whole home inspection was conducted, and it was determined by our foundation experts that unstable soils were causing the problem. To remedy the issue, our specialist designed a solution to stabilize the foundation from further settlement and lift the side of the home where settlement was most severe. Galvanized steel helical piers were installed by our trained crews around the perimeter of the home. Helical piers transfer the weight of the home from the unstable soil to the piers. Our team was thrilled to be able to help Todd permanently stabilize his home for good while significantly minimizing those large cracks.
