Ron, from Wilton Manors, Florida, had a severe tripping hazard develop in his home’s concrete walkway, which had become a regular nuisance. Wanting to prevent potential injuries, Ron contacted us at LRE Foundation Repair for help leveling the settled concrete slab. We sent one of our Design Specialists to conduct a complimentary inspection, and upon discovering that the underlying soil had eroded, they recommended using our PolyLevel solution to lift, level, and permanently stabilize the concrete walkway.
Ron approved the plan, and our team quickly got to work. Within minutes, we lifted the settling concrete slab back to its proper, even level while simultaneously stabilizing the underlying soil by injecting the PolyLevel solution directly beneath the surface. Now, Ron no longer has to worry about potential trips or falls, as his walkway has been permanently restored to its safe, even level.
Raul from Fort Lauderdale, FL, needed to have a section of his home's front porch lifted and leveled after the concrete slabs had settled, creating a significant tripping hazard. Wanting to avoid the expense and disruption of removing and replacing the concrete, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair for assistance.
We sent one of our local expert Design Specialists to conduct a free inspection, where it was discovered that the underlying soil had gradually eroded and washed away over time, causing the slabs to settle and crack. To restore the porch, our team utilized our Two-Part Concrete Protection System. First, PolyLevel was injected beneath the slabs to fill the voids left by the eroded soil and lift the concrete back toward its proper, even level.
With the tripping hazard eliminated, our team then sealed the cracks and control joints with NexusPro to help prevent water intrusion beneath the concrete and reduce the risk of future soil erosion.
Once the repairs were complete, Raul could once again enjoy his front porch with confidence, knowing the tripping hazard had been eliminated and the concrete permanently stabilized - all without the cost and disruption of a full concrete replacement.
Gina from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair after noticing that several concrete sidewalk slabs behind her apartment complex had sunk. Since the sidewalk runs alongside a dock, the uneven surface created a serious tripping hazard for her and other residents.
After a thorough inspection by our Design Specialist, we recommended using our PolyLevel solution to lift and level the slabs. Gina approved the plan, and our team carefully injected PolyLevel beneath the concrete, successfully raising and stabilizing the sidewalk. Now, Gina and the other residents of her apartment complex no longer have to worry about the risk of injury, as their sidewalk has been permanently restored to a safe, even level.
A section of Ivan’s home in Miami, FL, appeared to have been sinking, with noticeable gaps forming between the floors and walls. Concerned about the worsening issue, Ivan reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for assistance. We sent one of our Design Specialists to thoroughly inspect his home, diagnose the problem, and recommend a solution. Upon careful assessment, our specialist discovered that soil settlement beneath this section of the home had caused the interior slab to sink. Our production team promptly injected PolyLevel beneath the slab, lifting the concrete back to its proper level and stabilizing the soil. Now, the gaps between the floors and walls are closed, giving Ivan peace of mind knowing this section of his home is permanently secured.
Laura from Tampa, Florida, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to inspect her home's crawl space after noticing her wooden floors began cupping. Our Design Specialist visited and discovered trapped moisture in the crawl space, creating a humid environment that was likely causing the floor issue. The damp conditions also posed a risk for mold development, which could affect the indoor air quality.
Our Design Specialist created a plan to fully encapsulate the crawl space with the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This comprehensive system completely seals the crawl space with a highly durable moisture barrier to prevent moisture penetration to the wooden structural supports and inhibit mold growth. In addition, a specialized dehumidifier is installed to keep the air in the space clean and dry all year round.
After reviewing this plan with Laura, our team began implementing this system, providing Laura’s home with the protection it needed. She was thrilled with the results, knowing her crawl space was now secure and safeguarded for years to come.
