Before & After Photos

Brian G. of Sanford, Florida was in need of replacing his roof, but was worried there were underlying issues with his foundation due to large cracks in his exterior brick walls. He decided to call LRE Foundation Repair to assess the damage and troubleshoot the foundation before he went through the expense of a roof replacement. We completed a whole home inspection and determined voids under the house caused by unstable and washed-out soil conditions were contributing to the movement and sinking of his foundation. We designed a solution to this problem by installing helical piers to support the foundation and injecting PolyLevel to fill the voids and stabilize the soils. Once the repair was complete, the homeowner was thrilled with the lift achieved to his home, bringing it back to level, and is now ready to tackle the roof without worry. 

Erica in Winter Park, Florida, had noticed numerous cracks forming in both the interior and exterior walls of her home over the past couple of years. Concerned about potential foundation issues, she reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for a thorough inspection. Upon visiting her home, our Design Specialist discovered that roots from a large oak tree next to the house had pushed against the foundation, causing instability and resulting in the cracks in the walls. After Erica had the tree removed, our team stepped in and installed our helical pier system along the affected side of the home to stabilize and lift the foundation back to its proper position, effectively closing the cracks. Erica was thrilled with the results and expressed great appreciation for our team’s efforts, as her home is now permanently stabilized.

John from Orlando, FL, had just recently purchased his 1940s historic home and needed to have the floors leveled and stabilized after noticing that they were sloping under the current weight. After contacting LRE Foundation Repair, we sent our expert Design Specialist to conduct a free full home inspection. Our specialist observed that many of the original block piers in the crawl space had settled into the soil below, causing the home’s floor joists to sag due to the lack of support. To provide the needed support for the floor joists and restore them to their proper level, we had our team install our SmartJack system in the crawl space. Each SmartJack was installed and carefully measured to properly fit in the crawl space and provide durable and permanent support. Now, John can settle into his historic home with the assurance that the support from the crawl space below is completely stabilized.
