Concrete Lifting in San Carlos, CA

5 (20)

In San Carlos, the concrete surfaces of your property, including driveways, patios, and sidewalks, are susceptible to damage due to local soil conditions and environmental factors. The annual rainfall of about 20 inches combined with the region's clay and sandy soils often leads to erosion and instability. As the soil shifts, concrete can crack and settle unevenly, posing safety risks and reducing your property's appeal. Bay Area Underpinning offers effective concrete lifting solutions using advanced polyurethane foam injections, which are quick to cure and minimally invasive, ensuring your concrete areas are ready for use the same day they are treated.

Bay Area Underpinning, a proud member of the Groundworks family, provides top-notch foundation repair, crawl space repair, and concrete lifting services throughout San Carlos and Northern California. Our skilled technicians are dedicated to delivering the highest quality home repair services, tailored solutions, and innovative products, all backed by national-level warranties to ensure your peace of mind.

"A huge thank you to Jason! Since we moved into our house a year and a half ago, we've been hearing a strange wood-rubbing sound quite frequently. After doing some research online, I suspected there might be an issue with the foundation, so I reached out to Bay Area Underpinning, one of the few foundation companies that offer free on-site estimates. Jason Dye arrived right on time, carefully checked for any cracks, assessed the foundation levels, and measured the moisture level in the crawl space with their tools. He then provided his professional opinions. Jason is really nice, honest, and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!"

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in San Carlos

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.
