Tallahassee’s clay and sandy soil can lead to significant challenges for your concrete structures, including sidewalks, driveways, and patios. The area's high annual rainfall, averaging around 60 inches, often contributes to soil erosion and instability. When the supporting soil beneath your concrete erodes or settles, it can cause cracking and uneven surfaces, posing safety hazards. Our innovative concrete lifting solutions use advanced polyurethane injections that cure rapidly, offering a long-lasting fix that restores your concrete to its original condition.

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Tallahassee
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.
