Before & After Photos

Elizabeth R. in Interlachen, Florida, requested LRE Foundation Repair to inspect her recently purchased historic home, experiencing sloping and instability in the floors. An LRE Design Specialist performed a full inspection of the home's crawl space and identified deterioration in the floor joists and piers brought on by age and soil settlement. The LRE team installed a series of SmartJacks in the crawl space, effectively lifting and stabilizing the floors above. With the foundation now permanently stabilized, Elizabeth and her family can enjoy living safely in their newly restored historic home.

Theodore plans to retire in his Chiefland, Florida home with his family and doesn’t want to have to worry about his foundation’s stability in the future. Looking to bring greater support to the home’s floor joists, he requested assistance from LRE Foundation Repair. A Design Specialist visited Theodore's home to perform a thorough inspection of the crawl space and identified an opportunity to enhance floor stabilization by implementing the SmartJack system. The spacing of the wooden floor joists appeared wider than they ideally should be, and the SmartJack system provided the support needed to stabilize the home. Theodore can now have peace of mind, knowing he and his family are safe and secure in their forever home.

Robert B. of Ormond Beach, Florida called LRE Foundation Repair after growing concerned about large cracks forming in his pool deck. LRE completed an inspection of the property only to discover large voids had formed underground where armadillos had previously dug their dens. LRE formulated a plan to remedy the unstable soil situation by using PolyLevel injection around the pool deck. PolyLevel is an environmentally safe, expanding polymer material that is injected through small holes drilled in the concrete deck. As the material flows through loose soils, it expands on contact filling voids and creating stable ground. In addition, PolyLevel is able to lift concrete back level again, closing the cracks that concerned this homeowner. Once the project was complete, the homeowner was thrilled that his pool deck was crack-free and level once more. 

Jeff from Ormond Beach, Florida, was in need of a more effective drainage solution around his home after experiencing heavy flooding following severe rainstorms. He called LRE Foundation Repair and scheduled a free inspection with one of our Design Specialists to help provide a solution. After carefully evaluating the existing drainage system at Jeff's home, our specialist designed a plan to install a new system, which included French drains around the perimeter of the property. The plan also involved connecting the gutter downspouts directly to the underground drainage system to prevent the water from dispersing around the foundation. The water collected by the French drains and downspouts would then be diverted out to a pop-up relief drain away from the property through an underground drainage pipe. Once Jeff approved the plan, our team installed the system, carefully concealing it below the surface. Now, with this enhanced drainage system in place, Jeff can be confident that his home is better protected from potential flood damage.

Dave T. was tired of looking at his cracked up driveway but didn't have the means to tear it out and re-pour it. He called LRE Foundation Repair after hearing of our concrete services. LRE conducted a thorough investigation of property and offered the perfect solution for this homeowner's needs. Using an expanding foam material called PolyLevel, and a silicone-based concrete sealant called NexusPro, LRE had this driveway looking almost as good as new in less than a day. This homeowner was not only thrilled with the results, but saved a lot of money on this affordable option to concrete removal and replacement.
