Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

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. 

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.
