Concrete Leveling and Concrete Lifting

Concrete leveling or concrete lifting is how we are able to repair uneven or sunken concrete surfaces. We use a specialized material - a self-leveling compound often called a "mudjacking mixture", to actually "lift" or "level" fallen or settled concrete.

What causes concrete to settle needing lifting?

​Here are a few reasons that causes or contributes to concrete settling...
​

1. Poor soil conditions: If the soil underneath the concrete was poorly compacted or has settled over time, the result will be seen in the concrete falling as well.
2. Hydrostatic pressure: This is water under the concrete. Water can exert pressure on the soil causing it to become saturated and therefore causing the concrete to fall or settle.
3. Poor drainage: Pooling water on the surface of the concrete, or inadequate drainage around the concrete can cause the it to settle or sink.
4. Tree roots: Tree roots growing under concrete can cause the soil to shift and the concrete to settle.
5. Age: Concrete ages naturally and  will settle over time. Concrete is heavy, and the weight of the material and other forces acting on it can cause concrete settling.

Uneven concrete can be a safety hazard and can also lead to water damage and other issues if ignored. Concrete leveling can restore the surface to its original point and prevent further damage. Contact the experts at Jeffersonville Concrete Pros today and we'll get right on this for you!
