Foundation Repair Photo Album: Repairing Foundation in Orlando, Florida

Jenny was in the midst of remodeling her home in Orlando, Florida, when she noticed multiple cracks forming in the walls throughout various areas of her home. Concerned about potential foundation issues, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a professional inspection. We quickly scheduled a free assessment with one of our expert Design Specialists, who discovered that soil settlement had compromised the home’s foundation, leading to the cracks. To provide permanent stabilization and prevent further settlement, our specialist recommended installing a helical pier system. With Jenny’s approval, our team carefully installed the helical piers deep into the ground beneath the foundation, anchoring them into stable soil layers. This process successfully transferred the weight of the home to stronger ground, ensuring lasting stability. Now, Jenny can continue her remodeling project with total peace of mind, knowing that her home’s foundation is secure for years to come.

Exterior Vertical Wall Cracks

Vertical wall cracks along the home's exterior walls were a clean indication that the foundation's stability had been compromised.

Horizontal Exterior Wall Cracks

Horizontal wall cracks extending from this window frame were another sign of that the home's foundation was settling.

Ceiling Cracks

Another visible sign of foundation issues was the development of cracks in the home's ceiling.

Interior Wall Cracks

In addition to cracks on the exterior walls, the foundation settlement was so severe that cracks also formed along the interior walls of the home.

Preparation for Helical Pier Installation

The LRE team begins the helical pier installation process by carefully excavating the soil around the foundation to expose the footer.

Installing Helical Piers

The helical piers are driven deep into the ground using specialized equipment until competant soil layers are reached.

Complete Helical Pier Installation

The helical piers have been securely installed and bracketed to the foundation's footer, efficiently redistributing the home's weight to deeper, more stable soil layers for permanent stabilization.
