Foundation Repair

You might be surprised to learn that most foundation issues are caused by either too much water in the soil around and under your foundation, or too little. Either way, it can lead to soil erosion which can destabilize your home’s foundation and cause serious structural damage to the home itself.

Concrete Leveling and Lifting

Sunken concrete slabs are both unattractive and dangerous. If someone trips and falls on your uneven sidewalk, you could even find yourself facing a lawsuit. Therefore, this isn’t one of those repairs you should put on the back burner.

Sunken concrete sidewalks, pool decks, driveways, and more, used to be repaired either by digging up and replacing the slab, or via a technique called ‘’mudjacking’’. Neither one was the ideal solution though.

Tearing up the old slab and replacing it with a new one takes time. It’s not a quick fix. Freshly poured concrete needs time to dry and harden. While you’re waiting for that to happen, you can’t use your new sidewalk (or driveway, pool deck, etc.) Also, if the soil under your old slab wasn’t strong enough to support it, it’s not going to support the new slab either, which will eventually start to sink as well.

Mudjacking is a repair technique that involves injecting a slurry – made up of soil, water, and cement – under the slab in order to lift it back into position. The problem with this repair method is the weight of the slurry. It’s pretty heavy because it contains cement. If the soil under the slab was already struggling to support it, placing a cement slurry on top of it certainly isn’t going to help.

Polyurethane foam injection is a minimally-invasive procedure that involves injecting an ultra-lightweight and rapidly-expanding foam under the slab in order to lift it back up. From start to finish the procedure usually takes no more than 2-3 hours, and as soon as it’s complete, you can begin using the slab again. 

Seawall Repair

Seawalls are highly effective at protecting your Florida beachfront property from erosion. Unfortunately, over time seawalls themselves can suffer erosion caused by – among other things – extreme weather and tidal fluctuations. If your seawall is starting to fail, contact us today and we’ll come out for an inspection and free estimate.
