"We just experienced the absolute best dealing with Groundworks. From the initial inspection and estimate (Alan), to the prompt scheduling and confirmation of appointment the day before to the acknowledgement of ETA the morning of - every facet was top tier professional. Toy and Joey arrived on the job at the appointed time and immediately assesed the situation with our sunken 8' x 10' driveway pad section. I had diligently researched mud jacking, demo and reconcrete/finishing and polyurethane foam pad lifting. Wishing to keep the same color and finish after any repair, pad lifting seemed to be the best option. I have learned that pad lifting is an inexact science and succes or failure results in the ability of the technicians to "read" the concrete since composition of materials as well as the quality of the original pour must be factored in to know how much material (foam) should be applied and where to inject it so that cracking or over lifting can be avoided. Not only was the job done to my satisfaction but it was done with no cracking of the surface and leveled to match the other pads. It was only after the job was completed that Toy and Joey casually mentioned that they finished a job last night after dark and over 75 miles from my location. Both gentleman were curteous, respectful of me and my property and were a joy to work with. If you are old enough to remember high quality customer service provided in "the old days" or have only heard about it, you will be highly pleased with Groundworks and their highly skilled technicians. And, as an aside, Groundworks estimate beat all the other forms of repair. We highly recommend this crew and this company!"

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Fountain Valley

Have you ever wondered why your home's concrete surfaces seem to be gradually sinking or becoming uneven? This issue is common in the Fountain Valley area due to regional environmental factors. The primary cause is the interaction between soil and water. Some local soils, particularly those with clay components, can swell when wet and shrink upon drying, leading to a phenomenon known as soil heave. This cyclical expansion and contraction can push against or withdraw support from concrete structures over time, causing them to settle or crack. Moreover, Fountain Valley's proximity to coastal influence can mean higher humidity levels and more substantial moisture retention in the ground, exacerbating these soil movements.

These soil dynamics significantly stress your home's concrete surfaces, including driveways, patios, and foundations. As the ground shifts, concrete may lose its level support, leading to visible cracks, uneven floors, or areas that feel soft underfoot. In some cases, water can pool around your foundation, further destabilizing these areas. Observing these signs early is crucial because addressing minor issues now can help you avoid more significant damage later. Leveraging professional concrete lifting techniques can restore stability to affected areas, preventing prolonged structural problems and maintaining the safety and appearance of your home.
