Concrete is one of the most durable, economical, and versatile construction materials. Whether it’s used for strong foundations, practical pathways, or attractive patios, concrete is crucial to the integrity of the structure. However, concrete slabs are only as strong as the ground beneath them. When the ground is not properly prepared, concrete will settle and sink into the shifting soil. That’s where concrete leveling comes in.
Here’s what to know about our services:
- What is concrete leveling? Concrete leveling is the process of leveling uneven concrete slabs by shoring up the ground beneath them. Some techniques use fillers, or slurries, injected under the concrete to make it level. At Concrete Uprising, we focus on fixing the soil, so concrete slabs will stay put for the long haul.
- Concrete leveling goes beyond the slab. Our approach to concrete leveling is to implement long-term solutions that get to the root of the problem. That’s why we focus on the soil and the condition of the ground beneath the slab. When the ground is not prepared properly, concrete slabs will always fail on top of it. So, we treat the ground, shore up the soil, and preserve your concrete slab, so it all works as it should.
- What are the benefits of concrete leveling? Concrete leveling is a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to slab replacement. We always strive to preserve your slab to save you the money and trouble of having to replace your patio, porch, or driveway. In addition, it is usually quick, long-lasting, and improves the safety of your concrete areas.
- Concrete leveling has its limits. Sometimes, replacing the slab is unavoidable. Severe damage, certain soil conditions and root intrusions, as well as aged concrete can make leveling obsolete. Our team is committed to serving our customers through honest evaluations to determine whether leveling is the right approach for their concrete concerns.
