Concrete Lifting in Terrell, TX

Review Logo 4.8 (271)

Concrete is only as strong as the soil beneath it. In Terrell, the soil is primarily composed of clay, which can be problematic. With an average annual precipitation of about 42 inches, the soil around Terrell can become overly saturated, leading to expansion. This moisture-related expansion exerts pressure on concrete structures, such as driveways and sidewalks. When the soil dries, it shrinks and can lead to cracking and shifting, causing concrete surfaces to become uneven. FSS utilizes PolyRenewal, a leading polyurethane injection system that lifts concrete back into place and provides durable support against the effects of moisture.

Foundation repair requires a deep understanding of the local soil and environmental factors that can impact a home's foundation. Terrell's clay soils are susceptible to significant fluctuations in moisture, leading to swelling and shrinkage that can compromise structural integrity. Homeowners in Terrell should be vigilant about signs of foundation issues, as these soil movements often result in cracks, gaps, and uneven flooring. FSS offers specialized foundation repair solutions tailored to address the unique challenges posed by the local soil conditions.

Types of Concrete Damage in Terrell

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Terrell

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.
