Kevin, a homeowner in Sarasota, Florida, became concerned about the structural support in his crawl space after noticing widening gaps forming between his floors and adjacent walls over time. After calling us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, we quickly scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists to help identify any potential issues.
Upon entering the crawl space, our specialist observed that the wooden support joists had developed a noticeable slope, caused by the weight above and inadequate support below, as several block piers appeared to have settled.
A plan was created by our Design Specialist to provide durable and permanent support to the floor joists and lift them back into place with our SmartJack system. Kevin agreed to the plan, and our production team promptly began installing each SmartJack in key areas of the crawl space. This effective solution restored the floor joists to their proper position, eliminating the gaps between the floors and adjacent walls.
Kevin can now rest easy knowing that the structural support in his crawl space has been permanently stabilized and his home is secure.

Nancy had been wanting to get her driveway repaired and refinished for years and finally decided to take action. She learned about LRE Foundation Repair's concrete services and called them to come out to her home in Sarasota, Florida to inspect her driveway. LRE recommended a solution that involved using a combination of products - NexusPro and DecoShield. The driveway's aging expansion joints were deteriorating, and the wood within them needed to be replaced. NexusPro, a silicone-like material, was applied to the concrete cracks and joints to protect them from the elements. DecoShield, a tinted sealer, was then used to enhance and protect the slab, giving it a smooth, brand-new appearance. Once the project was completed, Nancy was thrilled with her new-looking driveway and was very satisfied with LRE's workmanship.
Peter G. noticed his Sarasota, Florida pool deck sinking and moving away from his screened lanai. Concerned, he reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for help, unsure of the underlying issue. LRE conducted an inspection and found that washed-out soils had created voids beneath the pool deck, causing the concrete to sink. Using PolyLevel, a liquid polymer material that expands upon application, LRE efficiently re-leveled the uneven pool deck and eliminated the gaps that had concerned Peter G., leaving him satisfied with the results.
