Deer Valley Concrete Slab Lifting Services

Some homeowners realize a piece of their concrete walkway, terrace, driveway or garage has sunken a little bit through the years.

If this taken place at your property, they can usually correct it by a procedure often called mud jacking or slabjacking.

Slabjacking is a unique process.

The procedure involves injecting a dense mud material beneath that patch of concrete which has sunken.

The thick compound expands and fills in all of the spaces down below the concrete and bit by bit forces the slab back up to the level it initially was at.

Sometimes a property owner wants mudjacking performed mostly in an effort to improve the look of their property, but cement slab raising helps to reduce accidental trips that result from having uneven segments.

Almost all of these jobs are completed in one morning or day.

How Come These Problems Happen?

These problems occur because the ground below your house and yard gradually shifts.

It gradually contracts or spreads out due to water and changes in temperature.

Side Sketch of what an exaggerated structure condition might be likeThis minor, yet consistent, motion can bring stress on whatever solid structure is on top of it.

Most structures can handle a bit of this activity, but too much movement, too frequently, may strain even a well-built structure.

The crucial element to keeping a home structure strong is to keep excessive water away from around and under the home.

First, a home which is located on a properly graded yard will experience rainwater flow away from the structure and not toward it.

And a home built with decent rain gutters and possibly an additional drainage system such as a French drain system, may also be in a better situation to not have unwanted water beneath and around your structure.

The attributes of the ground your home was constructed on is a major component also.

Some soil varieties swell and contract when they get exposed to moisture. This movement can put pressure on any type of structure.

One more common cause of property concerns is having a really big tree too close to your house.

This may create problems if the roots grow beneath the residence and place pressure on your slab, and possibly disturbing water pipes.

The expansive roots from a major tree too close to your house may also draw considerable amounts of moisture away from the earth underneath your building, so that it is too dry during our Summer dry season.

Each of these kinds of natural stress could lead to the growth of modest cracks in the foundation of your home.

And a little cracking can allow in air and moisture and it has a way of evolving into a bigger crack progressively.

Anytime you have rain water under your house, it means there is a problem.
