We've earned 2,071 five star reviews.

"We had waterproofing and a sump pump installed in the basement. The team of Austin W., Nathan W., Devon W. and Isaac R. did an outstanding job. The amount of hard work that goes into a project of this type is off the charts. This team never stopped and worked incredibly hard the entire time they were on site. From prepping the site, to removing concrete, to the installation process - everything went like clockwork. Our job required a 50 foot pipe installation in the backyard. One person was responsible for digging the trench by hand. When he was finished, you could barely tell the yard had been dug up. Every person was polite, professional and skilled. We are so pleased this team handled our project. Thank you!"

Types of Concrete Damage in Westland

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Westland

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.
