"LRE Ground Services had exceeded my expectations and I couldn't have been happier with their professionalism.  Our house is a small rental since we live in Houston now; however we lived in this small 650 sqft bungalow for three years before the move to Texas. 
The previous owner had made some foundation shoring that are holding well; however I thought it might be best to have a professional look since the house since it is a rental.  I contacted another competitor to LRE and I was quoted $35-$40,000 for a new foundation on a small 650sqft bungalow.  In shock I contacted LRE for another quote.  LRE assured me the foundation appeared to be sound and there was no need to disturb the foundation since we've had no indications of cracking or settling. 
LRE was punctual, professional, and I truly feel they are not out to make a quick dollar.   I was very pleased with their help and if I ever decide to do work in the future with the foundation I will surely be in touch with them!

"
The homeowner's driveway had endured years of wear and tear, resulting in discoloration and numerous cracks across the surface. Additionally, the concrete slabs had become uneven due to the soil settling beneath them.
Due to soil settlement and poorly placed control joints, the customer's driveway had significant cracking. You can see that some stains have formed, indicating that the concrete lacks sealant protection.
The homeowner knew that their home's addition had experienced settlement damage when vertical cracks appeared on the exterior walls.
The homeowner became alarmed when they noticed stair-step cracking patterns emerging from the window frame in the exterior wall of the home.
Upon noticing significant cracks developing in the walls, the homeowner became concerned about their foundation's condition.

"Mathew was excellent! He immediately diagnosed and fixed an issue with the way new Rheem Water Heaters react to well water. Charlotte Plumbing did a great install as well yet not sure of his name. Have used them in past and wouldn't use anyone else!"

"We needed our sewer line replaced. The estimate we received from the company we had been using was astronomically high. I called a few places and Pipedex promptly returned my call. They came out the day after Christmas, when their office was still closed for the holidays. My husband is in a wheelchair, so digging up our floors was not an option. They were able to reroute the sewer line and replace all our plumbing for 1/3 the price of our old corporate plumbing company. Aleks, Serge, Junior, Dalton and Ivan are masters at what they do. They were all courteous and respectful of our home. They finished on budget and we couldn’t be more appreciative."

"Alpha Foundations is a little more expensive than just going with someone to come in and fix what you already have under your home. Alpha Foundations installs intelliJacks which has made my home level again plus giving me the peace of mind that it's not going to shift again the way it did for Hurricane Ian"

"I am very new to the Fort Myers area and found myself needing an emergency repair. My shower drain was leaking onto the downstairs neighbors ceiling. Unfortunately, I have a tile floor in my shower which had to be removed to access the pipe and drain that needed replaced. Since I had just purchased this condo, Chris worked with me to keep the cost down as much as possible. The work was completed within days and I am assured it is under a warranty which allows me some peace of mind as well."

"Absolutely fantastic. Our project was to redesign bathroom by increasing size of shower area, new tile floor, new fixtures, and new lighting. Kurt provided the contract in 4 parts. After each part was completed, payment was due, not before. This was the first time I didn't need to provide an initial upfront deposit. Kurt promised a completion date of 4 weeks and it was completed on time. He arrived daily on time and worked by himself the entire day. The completed project is more perfect than we could have hoped for and would we would never hesitate to recommend him or use his company again. Job well done!!"

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

A sump pump's lifespan is typically 7 to 10 years, though the general range can be anywhere from 5 to 15 years. The specific type of pump is a major factor: pedestal sump pumps last an average of 20 to 25 years, whereas submersible sump pumps last between 5 and 15 years. While pedestal pumps are less expensive to service, they are also louder and more prone to clogging.

Several other factors influence longevity, including the pump's quality, usage frequency, and maintenance schedule. A high-quality pump that is well-maintained in a dry climate may last for two decades, while a lower-quality, poorly maintained pump in an area with a high water table or frequent flooding may fail in six years or less.

Regular maintenance, including annual inspections and tuneups from a professional, can significantly extend the pump's life. It is time to consider a replacement if your sump pump runs constantly, cycles frequently, shows visible rust or corrosion, or trips a circuit breaker. As a preventative measure, many homeowners replace their pumps every eight years. It's also worth noting that a manufacturer's warranty can indicate expected lifespan, and some home insurance policies may not cover water damage from a pump that is past its recommended replacement date.

Heavy rain can affect a leach field because the extra rain can cause the groundwater level to rise. This leads the soil around the leach field to become saturated with rainwater, so it’s no longer able to take in effluent from the leach lines for final treatment. Heavy rainfall can cause the leach field to flood.

A range of certified professionals can install French drains, from foundation specialists to plumbers. However, you’ll want to make sure that the professional has a breadth of experience installing the specific type of drain you need in or outside your home. Your contractor should also have experience with sump pumps, waterproofing, and flood-proof landscaping.

Statistics show that 98% of basements will experience some form of water damage over time. However, that doesn’t mean all basements will experience severe flooding. The best way to prevent a water-damaged basement is to keep up with home maintenance and have proper drainage installed outside your home to direct water away from the foundation. You can also consider building a flood wall around the house if you live in a flood-prone area.

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.
