Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Repair in Venice, Florida
A local school in Venice, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a foundation inspection after noticing numerous cracks along its exterior walls. Following a comprehensive assessment, our Design Specialist confirmed that soil settlement beneath one side of the building had compromised its foundation’s stability.
To provide a long-term solution, we recommended installing our helical pier system to permanently stabilize the structure. With approval from the school board, our team carefully installed each helical pier beneath the foundation, successfully reinforcing and securing the building.
Now, both staff and students can feel confident that their school is structurally sound, ensuring safety and peace of mind for years to come.
Exterior Wall Cracks
Large cracks along the building's exterior walls were a clear indication that the foundation's stability had been compromised.
Installing Helical Piers
The LRE team excavates the soil and installs each helical pier deep beneath the foundation, anchoring them into stronger, more stable soil layers.
Complete Helical Pier Installation
Each helical pier has been fully installed and securely bracketed to the foundation's footer, effectively transferring the building's weight to the stronger, more stable soil layers below.
Concealing Helical Piers
Once the LRE team has completed the installation of each helical pier, the recently excavated soil is carefully replaced to provide a seamless appearance.
