"My experience with Foundation Support Specialists was great from start to finish! Having foundation problems can be very stressful, and the whole team at FSS made it much more bearable! Brian Graham was knowledgeable, understanding, and went out of his way to take care of my and my house. When he had questions about the job, he reached out to my foundation engineer directly to have a conversation. He was great! Aaron Hudson was the tech that came to do the work. He was kind, also knowledgeable, and helped to give me realist expectations for what to look out for after the job was done and how to move forward. His tech assistant Zach Taylor was kind, efficient, and worked hard to keep things clean. They left my house as the came and you can hardly tell where they did the work. So happy with my experience, and I will call them if I have any needs in the future. Would recommend them to any friends or family."
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.
