Concrete lifting is essential for homeowners in Hephzibah to maintain safe and functional surfaces around their properties. The area's clay soil and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles can lead to uneven driveways, sidewalks, and patios as settling occurs over time. Our innovative PolyRenewal™ Polyurethane Injection method effectively restores these surfaces to their original level, providing long-lasting results. Timely repairs are crucial to prevent further damage, especially given the average annual rainfall in the region.

"Kolden Kicklighter came to our house to inspect our crawl space. He showed us videos of the area, several moisture readings and pictures of our floor joists. He presented two options for encapsulating the crawl space that will permanently solve our moisture problems and prevent future foundation problems.
Kolden was very prepared, very knowledgeable, very thorough and VERY professional. We were quite impressed.
We got a 2nd quote that was considerably more and didn't provide the materials and warranty Mount Valley offers.
We are sure we'll be pleased with Mount Valley."
Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Hephzibah
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.
