What is Slab Lifting?
Why Lake Nona needs Slab Lifting.
Lake Nona sits on sandy fill atop fractured limestone bedrock, with rapid groundwater fluctuation between Florida’s dry and wet seasons working on it year-round. Cover-collapse sinkhole activity is the most common cause of sudden settlement we diagnose in Central Florida.
Local conditions: Lake Nona soil & climate.
Soils. Lake Nona sits within the Orlando bearing-soil profile: sandy fill atop fractured limestone bedrock.
Water table. Water table is variable, with seasonal rise during the wet months that can accelerate karst-related settlement.
Climate stressors. Lake Nona's climate stressors mirror the Orlando region: rapid groundwater fluctuation between Florida’s dry and wet seasons.
Local challenges. Lake Nona sits within or adjacent to documented karst limestone zones. Sinkhole activity in the surrounding area means engineered helical pier systems typically advance deeper here than the regional default.
Typical building stock and dispatch. Lake Nona sits in Orange County, in the Orlando region. Neighboring communities we serve include Orlando, Winter Park, Winter Garden, Apopka with the same engineer-stamped helical pier specification.
How we install Slab Lifting in Lake Nona.
Central Florida’s sinkhole-insurance market means most homes carry coverage — we work directly with carriers and adjusters on every claim-eligible job.
Our 4-step process — same protocol on every Lake Nona project.
- Free on-site inspection. Licensed specialist evaluates the structure, takes elevation readings, and identifies the root cause — at no cost.
- PE-stamped design. Our staff Professional Engineer specifies pier count, depth, torque, and capacity — sealed for permitting in your jurisdiction.
- Certified install. Partnered with Patriot Foundation Systems and Foundation Systems Supply crews drive each pier to a documented torque-to-capacity matching the design.
- Lift, load test, warranty. Hydraulic lift to target elevation, signed load test to confirm capacity, lifetime structural warranty issued same day.
