58 Foundation's & Waterproofing's professional and honest estimators are the best to provide accurate diagnosis and solutions for your concrete settling issues.
The contraction and expansion of soils compromise all kinds of concrete structures, from flatwork to foundations. 58 Foundations uses state-of-the-art polyurethane foam to raise and stabilize concrete. This process can be done for a fraction of the cost of replacement and can be used within minutes.
Cause #1: Poor Compaction
The area around your home's foundation often contains loose soil and fill from construction. Tennessee homes with basements require over-excavation for foundation walls. After pouring, this area is backfilled, but the loose fill tends to settle over time. Consequently, concrete structures in this “compaction zone” sink as the underlying soil settles.
Cause #2: Water
Water compacts soil, and poor drainage combined with rain and snowmelt evacuates air pockets beneath your concrete. As moisture dries, voids form, causing the soil to collapse and take the concrete with it, resulting in settling, sinking, and cracking. Flooding from leaks can also lead to these problems. However, our water-resistant poly foam can improve underlying water issues that caused the damage.
Cause #3: Inadequate Drainage
Constant water under concrete can lead to failure. Many homeowners overlook grading, allowing water to flow toward their foundation. When you notice inadequate drainage, it’s crucial to address it. Leaky gutters, downspouts, and excessive watering near concrete can cause the soil and concrete to sink. Correcting drainage along with leveling your concrete with ‘58 Foundations and Waterproofing is essential.
Once poor compaction, inadequate drainage, and water infiltration take a toll on your concrete, cracking, heaving, and sinking can occur. Over time, this will cause cosmetic damage, additional moisture intrusion, foundation issues, cracking, and other potentially costly and hazardous issues in and around your home.
Uneven concrete can lead to bigger issues and hazards. The safety of your home, family, and guests is our priority. ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing has been serving homeowners for over 66 years, with guaranteed repair solutions that are smart and affordable.
