Concrete Floors are Great – Until They’re Not
If you’ve got a concrete floor, you know how nice they are. There’s nothing like gathering with family or friends where you don’t need to worry about the little things. Concrete is durable and easy to clean, and cheap to install.
But what happens when the concrete settles and then cracks and sinks? Do you need to call the concrete guys? Must you just live with it? Do you need to tear out the entire floor and start from scratch? The answer to all these questions is no. There is a better way to deal with cracked, sagging concrete on your floor.
You Don’t Have to Tear Out Your Concrete Floors
It’s disappointing that you’ve had your floor installed and your concrete sinks and cracks over time. Little by little, the concrete is sinking and the floor becomes unlevel and cracked. Two things cause this problem: water and soil.
Soil shifts and moves and compacts. It also absorbs water. Good soil distributes water to all the living organisms it connects with, but bad soil doesn’t always do that. With too much or too little water, the soil becomes dry, brittle and compacted even more as it degenerates.
As the soil shifts or deteriorates, the concrete loses its foundational support. Without the compacted soil, the concrete flooring has no option but to crack and sag.
At Advance Concrete Lifting and Leveling, we can lift that sagging concrete and level it again.
One-Day Repair for Your Sagging, Cracked Floor Concrete
We use polymer foam to lift your concrete floors back to level. Here’s how it works: we use a small hole in your concrete to inject a polymer foam that seeks out and fills in the gaps in the soil. The foam then hardens quickly and becomes a solid substance that stabilizes the soil.
As the soil stabilizes, it pushes the concrete back to where it was when it was laid. The repair lasts, and the concrete floor is repaired without needing to tear up the floor. What was a huge, dangerous sagging or deep crack in your concrete floors is now a safe, stable floor ready to do its job again in one day.
