Concrete Lifting in Detroit, MI

Review Logo 4.7 (2,313)

The concrete surfaces around your Detroit home, such as driveways, sidewalks, and patios, can suffer from the effects of the area's clay loam soil and substantial precipitation, averaging about 33 inches of rain and 46 inches of snow each year. This soil type expands and contracts with moisture levels, leading to cracks and uneven surfaces. To combat these issues, Foundation Systems of Michigan employs polyurethane injections to lift and stabilize your concrete slabs, ensuring they are level and safe for use. Our PolyRenewal solution is waterproof and allows for immediate use of the repaired surfaces.

Types of Concrete Damage in Detroit

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Detroit

Soil Erosion

Over time, water or wind can wash away soil particles beneath the concrete slab, creating empty spaces or voids that cause the concrete to sink or crack.

Poor Soil Compaction

If the soil beneath the concrete wasn't properly compacted during construction, it can settle unevenly over time, leading to cracks and sinking.

Tree Root Growth

Roots from nearby trees can grow under concrete slabs, lifting and cracking them as they expand.

Freeze-Thaw Cycles

Repeated freezing and thawing of water in the soil can cause it to expand and contract, putting pressure on the concrete and leading to cracks and lifting.

Heavy Loads

Excessive weight from vehicles, equipment, or other heavy objects can stress the concrete, causing it to crack and settle.

Moisture Changes

Fluctuations in moisture levels can significantly impact the soil's stability beneath concrete, leading to erosion and voids that cause the concrete to settle.

Understanding these common causes can help you take preventive measures to maintain the integrity of your concrete surfaces and avoid costly repairs.
