Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Repair and Stabilization in Delray Beach, Florida
Paula from Delray Beach, Florida, noticed that the floors in one corner of her home were gradually settling, creating visible gaps between the flooring and the adjacent walls. Concerned about her home’s stability, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection.
Our expert Design Specialist conducted a thorough assessment and discovered that significant soil erosion beneath the foundation had caused the settlement. To provide a permanent solution, we recommended installing our push pier system to lift and permanently stabilize the foundation. After reviewing the plan with Paula, our production team installed push piers deep into the ground until they reached solid bedrock. The piers were then securely bracketed to the foundation’s footer, successfully transferring the home's weight to stable ground.
With the repair complete, Paula’s foundation is now permanently stabilized, giving her peace of mind that her home is safe and secure.
Settling Interior Floors
The homeowner suspected foundation issues after noticing gaps forming between the interior floors and adjacent walls in one corner of the home.
Preparation of Push Pier Installation
The LRE team begins installing the push pier system by first excavating the soil to expose the foundation's footer and carefully positioning each pier at its designated installation site.
Installing Push Piers
Each push pier is carefully driven deep below the surface by the LRE team until solid, load-bearing bedrock is reached.
Complete Push Pier Installation
The push piers have been securely installed and bracketed to the foundation's footer, effectively transferring the weight of the home to the stable, load-bearing bedrock below.
Concealing Push Piers
Once the foundation stabilization process is complete, the LRE team carefully backfills the excavated areas with the previously removed soil, ensuring a seamless appearance for the homeowner.
