Ivania’s home in Sunrise, Florida, had experienced significant settlement damage, especially on her front porch, where noticeable gaps had formed between the support columns and the roof above. After contacting LRE Foundation Repair and scheduling a free inspection, we sent one of our Design Specialists to carefully assess the situation and provide a solution.
Our specialist confirmed that soil settlement had caused her home and front porch to sink, necessitating immediate stabilization to prevent further damage. Our team installed our push pier system beneath the front porch to transfer the weight of the home to the solid bedrock below. From there, the team gradually lifted the porch back into its proper position, effectively closing the gaps between the columns and the roof.
Ivania was thrilled with our team’s work and can now feel at ease knowing her home’s foundation and front porch are permanently stabilized.
Flooding had been a persistent issue in the yard of Gary’s home in Cooper City, Florida, and he knew he needed to have the problem addressed to prevent potentially serious damage to his foundation. A Design Specialist from LRE Foundation Repair visited Gary’s home to conduct an inspection and craft a customized solution to help prevent flooding. After looking over the yard of the home, the specialist discovered that although the home had a gutter and downspout system, the water would regularly pool around the perimeter of the home due to poor grading of the yard. A plan was devised to install an EZ Flow French Drain system, which includes a buried extension for the downspouts. This extension will directly channel water from the gutters and into the subsurface system. From here, the water will then be diverted out through a pop-up relief drain located at the far end of the home's property. Following LRE’s installation of his new drainage system, Gary’s flooding issues have now been successfully resolved, relieving him of this persistent issue.
Ramon's Hollywood, Florida home was damaged during the last hurricane, with water intruding into the house. Worried that the damage might get worse, he called LRE Foundation Repair for a proper drainage solution. LRE inspected the property and noted damage to the foundation had allowed water to enter the home. Proper drainage was needed around the perimeter of the home, as well as an upgraded downspout that would divert excess water away from the foundation. LRE's team got to work, excavating a carefully measured trench and laying the necessary pipe and gravel materials. Following the completion of the installation, LRE took care of burying all materials and cleaning up the site, leaving this homeowner more than pleased with the results.
