Concrete Raising
At Quality Waterproofing, we provide an excellent solution to repair sunken or cracked concrete surfaces on driveways, patios, porches, garage floors, and more. This solution is called mudjacking. While we may think of concrete as a strong and durable material, it can still experience problems due to several factors:
- Poor Compaction
- Age
- Wear and tear
- Soil Shrinkage
- Moisture
Different types of soil can support different amounts of weight. If the soil around your home was not compacted properly after construction or has become compromised after years of water entering and leaving the soil, it can have problems supporting the concrete above it.
The damaged surface that you see not only looks terrible, but it can also cause a variety of problems for the rest of your home. This damage could be an indicator of other problems such as soil or drainage issues, internal problems with the concrete, or improper setup or reinforcement. Additionally, sinking slabs could pose a tripping hazard to family members and guests to your property. As you can see, it's important to get these problems taken care of immediately before the damage gets worse.
