The property owners of an apartment complex in Brooksville, FL, asked LRE Foundation Repair to inspect one of their units after noticing cracks in various areas of the exterior walls. After our expert Design Specialist conducted a complimentary inspection, we discovered that the underlying soil had settled over time due to years of heavy rainfall. We created a plan to permanently stabilize the settling foundation and lift it back to its proper position using our helical pier system.
With the owner’s approval, our team installed each helical pier deep into the ground until strong, stable soil layers were reached. The piers were then bracketed to the foundation footer, successfully transferring the weight of the structure to the competent soil layers below. Once stabilized, the LRE team carefully lifted the foundation back to its original position, effectively closing the cracks.
Now, the owners and residents of the apartment complex can rest assured knowing the foundation is permanently stabilized and no longer at risk of settling in the future.
In Brooksville, FL, the owners of an apartment complex were completing renovations when they discovered large cracks forming in the exterior walls of one of their units. Seeking a professional inspection, they contacted LRE Foundation Repair and scheduled a free visit with one of our local Design Specialists.
After carefully examining the foundation, our specialist determined that the unit had settled due to unstable underlying soil over time. To permanently stabilize the structure and lift it back to its proper position, our team installed helical piers around the perimeter of the affected area. Each pier was driven deep into the ground until competent soil layers were reached. Once in place, the piers were bracketed to the foundation footer, and our team carefully lifted the structure back into position, effectively closing the wall cracks.
The property owners and residents can now feel confident knowing the foundation is permanently stabilized and protected for years to come.
Large cracks had developed in the walls of an apartment complex in Brooksville, FL, prompting the property owners to contact LRE Foundation Repair for a professional inspection. We scheduled a free appointment with one of our Design Specialists, who visited the property to evaluate the condition of the building's foundation.
Upon completing the inspection, our specialist determined that significant soil settlement beneath the structure had caused the foundation to settle, resulting in the wall cracking. To permanently stabilize the foundation and restore it to its proper position, we developed a repair plan that included the installation of our helical pier system.
Our team carefully advanced each helical pier deep into the ground until strong, stable soil layers were reached. The piers were then bracketed to the foundation footing, transferring the weight of the structure away from the unstable soil and onto the more competent layers below.
Once the foundation was fully stabilized, our team carefully lifted the settled sections toward their original position, significantly reducing the wall cracks. Now, the property owners can have confidence knowing their apartment complex has been permanently stabilized, helping provide a safe and secure environment for their tenants.
