Before & After Photos

Kim's Dover, Florida home would flood every time it rained, and water would leak into the enclosed patio. She tried everything she could to fix the problem, and eventually called LRE Foundation Repair for professional help. LRE completed an inspection of the property and determined poor drainage and overflowing downspouts were failing to properly divert water away from the foundation. This homeowner needed a new drainage solution that consisted of newly buried downspouts, French drains, and an EZ Flow system, all of which would prevent water from flooding around her foundation. LRE completed the project, leaving the site better than how they found it. Kim was pleased with her new drainage system and relieved that her home's flooding issues were finally resolved.

Dan and Diane L. recently moved into their Melbourne, Florida home and immediately wanted their sunken and unlevel driveway repaired. Having experienced a broken bone from a previous trip hazard, these homeowners did not want to endure that again. LRE completed an inspection of the home, noting that buried tree roots were mainly to blame for their broken driveway. LRE was able to lift and re-level the affected areas of the driveway using PolyLevel, a two-part expanding foam material that is injected underneath the concrete slab. This material flows easily through soils, filling voids and expanding to lift the concrete back in place. Once the project was complete, these homeowners were thrilled to have the peace of mind they were looking for and tripping hazards removed.

Erika B. from Melbourne, Florida owns a century-old historic home. She noticed that the floors were sagging and squeaking when she walked on them. To get a permanent solution, she contacted LRE Foundation Repair for a free inspection. After the inspection, LRE found out that the existing support columns in the crawl space of her home had settled, and the wood joists had deteriorated, causing the floors to sag. To solve the problem, LRE's Design Specialist recommended the installation of SmartJack, a galvanized steel system designed to stabilize the floor joists in the crawl space. The SmartJack system was installed throughout the crawl space, and it permanently lifted and re-leveled the floors of the house. After the job was completed, Erika was extremely pleased with the results.

Ken A. of Brandon, Florida started noticing his concrete walkway sinking and the joints forming larger gaps. He could visibly see a void under one section of his sidewalk and decided he wanted the whole sidewalk repaired before it could get any worse. He called LRE Foundation Repair, who immediately came out to complete the inspection. The sidewalk was located near a boat dock and body of water, and erosion was washing soils away, compromising the concrete's stability. LRE remedied this problem using PolyLevel, an expanding foam material injected underneath the concrete walkway. This material expands to fill voids in the soils below while adding stability. LRE finished the project by sealing and protecting the concrete joints using NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant protects the walkway from any future damage, achieving the goals of this happy homeowner. 

Chrisanne S. of Brandon, Florida had growing concerns as water started intruding into her home during heavy rains. She called LRE Foundation Repair to assess the damage and design the solution. LRE installed a drainage solution that would divert water away from her foundation. LRE installed hard pipe underground, EZ Flow materials, and pop-up drains to complete this customized system. Once completed, this homeowner was able to rest easy knowing no further water would enter or damage her home.
