Topeka Mudjacking (Concrete Slab Lifting) Service

When sections of your cement walk or driveway has sunk a little into the soil, they can work on that too.

The process they employ to fix it is known as mudjacking (some contractors call it slabjacking).

Mud jacking is when a technician vigorously send a caulk-like material below a sunk concrete slab.

As soon as this material amasses under the slab, it forces the slab to rise up to the level you want it to be.

Sometimes a homeowner wants slab jacking done mainly as a way to improve the appearance of their home and property, but concrete slab raising can aid in reducing accidental trips that result from walking on uneven sections.

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

How Does This Issue Happen?

Beneath your home and driveway, the earth is slowly moving.

It expands and contracts due to exposure to moisture, temperature and other factors.

This slow, but sustained motion can cause the structure above the soil be stressed.

Sections of foundations can slightly move up or down or sideways.

But even just a little motion, over a few years, can result in an exaggerated issue with the structure itself.

Okay, you can’t manage the weather or the physical composition of the dirt here around our state, but leaving your house rest on a poorly graded lot is looking for trouble.

If your lot doesn’t prompt rainwater to flow away from your home, you could develop a bad situation down the road.

Also, neglecting to install working rain gutters is another mistake property owners can make.

Gutters are a essential fix which will help avoid water issues.

One of the biggest variables that influence this situation is something that the homeowner can’t influence.

It’s the absorbency of the soil and ground that his house is constructed on.

Soil that can absorb and hold a lot of moisture will expand more than soil that does not retain moisture well.

And some Kansas soil has too much clay and can be pretty absorbent. Soil type can vary by location.

One other element that may be a contributing factor is the existence of a big tree which is way too near to your home.

Although it doesn’t happen too often, during a lengthy dry and hot spell, a big tree’s roots can extract all the available moisture from the soil near it, making the soil too dry and compacted.

And thick roots can also put pressure on your building’s structure too.

These sorts of natural stress can lead to small cracks in your house’s structure.

These modest cracks allow in humidity and bugs, and these minor cracks can grow larger as time goes on.

Bear in mind, your basement structure actually is holding up the complete building.

The floors, roof and walls all count on it.

Any time moisture steadily drips into a basement, it can cause problems over time including mildew and mold.

And it too will just become worse over time.

And if you’re looking into selling your house instead of clearing up the problem, there are not many home buyers who will want to bid on a property which has any kind of structure issue or indicators of past water seepage in the basement.
