Before & After Photos

Looking to replace the damaged deco drains in their concrete pool deck, a homeowner in Seminole, Florida, contacted us at LRE Foundation Repair to help provide a solution. Our Design Specialist visited their home to inspect the pool deck and discovered that the standard deco drains originally installed were heavily damaged and ineffective at adequately draining water during torrential downpours. For a more effective solution, our team replaced the damaged deco drain in the concrete with a robust channel drain capable of collecting larger volumes of rainwater and diverting it to a relief drain located further from the property. Now the homeowner can enjoy using their pool deck without the hassle of pooling rainwater.

Michael was concerned about the constant flooding taking place on the pool deck of his home in Seminole, Florida, and reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to help provide a solution. An LRE Design Specialist inspected the pool deck and developed a plan to install a comprehensive drainage system to remove the excess rainwater. The LRE team installed a 4” channel drain within the pool deck's concrete to collect rainwater and divert it away from the home through a subsurface drainage system. The water will then be released through a pop-up relief drain at the far end of the property, away from the home. After the installation, Michael's pool deck no longer experiences flooding, alleviating him of this recurring problem.

Jim K. and his son were preparing to sell their home in Riverview, Florida, but they wanted to improve the driveway to enhance the curb appeal of their house. They contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. LRE conducted a thorough inspection of the property to ensure that no underlying issues were causing cracks. After the inspection, LRE discovered that the driveway was in poor condition due to its age and exposure to the elements. They recommended a "fix and protect" plan to restore the driveway. Our team utilized PolyLevel, an expanding foam material, to inject it directly beneath the concrete slab. This product fills voids, stabilizes loose soils, and expands to lift concrete slabs until they are level. Afterward, they used NexusPro, a silicone-based sealer, on all cracks, and a tinted translucent topcoat called DecoShield was applied to the entire surface. These products not only stabilized and protected the driveway from the elements for years to come but also gave the homeowner the curb appeal they wanted.
