Concrete Lifting in Chico, CA

Review Logo 4.9 (34)

Concrete lifting in Chico is essential due to the local soil conditions, which predominantly consist of clay and loam. These soils can retain moisture, leading to the potential for erosion and settling of concrete surfaces. With an average annual precipitation of approximately 31.80 inches, the excess moisture can cause the soil to shift and create uneven, cracked concrete. At Groundworks, we utilize advanced PolyRenewal technology, a polyurethane injection system that effectively restores the original position of concrete while providing durable support to withstand the elements.

Groundworks is proud to offer our concrete lifting services to the residents of Chico, ensuring that your concrete surfaces remain safe and level. Our commitment to high-quality repairs and personalized service is evident in everything we do. With expertly trained technicians and industry-leading products, we provide solutions backed by national warranties. Trust Groundworks to enhance the structural integrity of your home and eliminate the risks associated with shifting concrete.

"I'm a Realtor that had a problem: the house I was selling had a major foundation problem. Usually, this can be death to selling a house. I researched different contractors and companies for my out-of-state seller. Groundworks came out and gave a very detailed estimate, explaining exactly what they would do, how they would fix the problem, and what equipment and technology they would use. The seller agreed this was the right solution, and we moved forward. Groundworks took care of everything, including permitting, making the process easy. Immediately after receiving the permits, Groundworks sent up to Monterey a fantastic team of three - Zachary Hersey, Michael Hersey, and Kai Simpson. All three of these young men were excellent. They worked hard, long hours, communicated clearly and consistently - every day I was sent texts or calls, along with photos of the work that was done. They endeavored to leave the home and yard better than how they found it - I was so impressed. I was able to share the progress each day with my seller. And after the work was done, the structure was stabilized, the problems fixed. Now, I can put the house back on the market, knowing the new buyers have a wonderful home with a great warranty on the foundation work. -- I want to send an extra shout-out to Zachary. He was such a pleasant, easy to talk to young man. He answered all questions, fixed any problems immediately, and honestly I think he'd make an excellent sales-person for this company. Being a single lady, I felt very comfortable around all three of them. Neighbors came out to ask Zachary's opinions on their homes too, and I'll bet he could have signed up another customer or two who would have benefited from what Groundworks offers. If the owners of the company ever asked my opinion of this 3-person crew with Zachary at the lead, I'd say they should do whatever they can to hang onto them - Zachary, Michael, and Kai would have made them proud! I've already recommended Groundworks to other Realtors in my office, and I would have them ask specifically for Zachary's crew if they can!"

Types of Concrete Damage in Chico

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Chico

Poor Soil Compaction

The soil beneath the concrete may not have been compacted enough during construction. Over time, the loose soil shifts and settles, causing the concrete to sink or crack.

Soil Erosion

Water from rain, sprinklers, or poor drainage can wash away the soil under the slab. This creates empty spaces, making the concrete sink or become uneven.

Climate Conditions

When saturated, clay soil expands, and when dry, it contracts. These constant changes in moisture levels weaken the support beneath the concrete.

Freeze-Thaw Cycles

Water in the soil freezes and expands during winter, then thaws and contracts. This movement puts pressure on the concrete, leading to cracks or lifting over time.

Tree Roots

Roots from nearby trees or shrubs can grow underneath concrete. As they grow, they push up on the slab, causing uneven surfaces or cracks.

Heavy Loads

Parking heavy vehicles or placing large items on concrete can compact the soil underneath. Weak soil cannot often support the weight, causing the slab to sink or crack.

Poor Drainage

Excessive rainwater or water pooling near concrete slabs can lead to soil washout, weakening the soil under the concrete.
