Because the signs of foundation settlement and sinkhole formation are so similar, the only way to know if your home has sinkhole damage or foundation settlement is to have an expert in sinkholes examine your property and see if it is sinkhole damage or settlement.

The professionals at Foundation Professionals of Florida has 30 years of experience in geotechnical sciences. We will be able to tell if it is sinkhole damage or foundation settlement. When we do find the answer, we can offer you the solutions you need.

Sinkholes are very common in Florida due to the limestone in the soil. When the acid in the rainwater moves through the limestone, it will dissolve the limestone, creating voids which can form a sinkhole.

If we find that the damage in your home is caused due to a sinkhole forming, we have the solution. We use compaction grouting to firm up loose soil and close up the void. Compaction grouting also increases the density in the layers of the soil around your property. This will help prevent further sinkhole formation in the future.

Compaction grouting is done by installing pipes at various angles and then the grout is injected under high pressure. The structural movement and grout line pressure are monitored throughout the pumping process. After completion, the pipes are removed. This process requires qualified professionals that have significant training.
