Why your neighbors trust Foundation Systems of Michigan
We've earned 870 five star reviews.
"We recently had our crawl space encapsulated by FSM and the
results are very impressive. The crew consisting of Tim, Kody, and
Sid kept us informed all along the way. These guys attended to the
work with diligence and care. They were thoughtful and took care
that the work area was neat as well as our home. We can't thank them enough for the professional way they executed the
project. When all was complete, I inspected the crawl space and
was overwhelmed with the attention to detail and how
meticulous Tim, Kody, and Sid are upon me seeing the results of
their labor. These guys demonstrated a pride in what they do
and it shows in the way they interacted with us. If anyone
ever asks me about what to do about their crawl space I will
certainly recommend FSM most strenuously and certain tell
them if they get the work done, to ask for Tim, Kody, and Sid."
Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Grand Ledge
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.
