Settling concrete is a common problem for many homeowners, and it can lead to issues with both the safety and appearance of a property. When concrete slabs settle due to factors like poor soil compaction or erosion, they can cause uneven surfaces that diminish your home’s curb appeal, create tripping hazards, and even decrease property value. Stratalock USA’s innovative polyurethane concrete lifting services offer a reliable and efficient solution. Here’s everything you need to know about getting concrete lifting for your home and why Stratalock USA is the best choice.
What Is Concrete Lifting, and Why Is It Needed?
Concrete lifting is the process of raising concrete slabs that have sunken into the ground back to their original position. Over time, slabs can sink due to poorly compacted soil, erosion, or inadequate drainage, causing uneven surfaces that create tripping hazards, pooling water, and potentially serious structural issues. Concrete lifting corrects these problems, making your home safer and restoring its aesthetic appeal.
Why Choose Polyurethane Concrete Lifting?
Polyurethane concrete lifting involves injecting high-density expanding foam beneath the concrete, where it fills voids and compacts loose soil, providing a stable foundation. This method offers advantages over traditional techniques like mud jacking. Unlike mud jacking, which uses heavy materials that can lead to further soil compression, polyurethane foam is lightweight, ensuring stability without additional strain on the soil. Plus, it cures quickly, allowing treated areas to be used almost immediately.
The Stratalock USA Concrete Lifting Process
At Stratalock USA, the concrete lifting process is thorough and tailored to each project’s unique needs. Here’s how it works.
Initial Assessment:
Stratalock USA’s team begins by evaluating the affected area to determine the best approach. This assessment ensures the lifting process is precise and addresses the root cause of the settlement.
Preparation & Injection
After the assessment, small holes are drilled into the concrete, and high-density polyurethane foam is injected beneath the slab. As the foam expands, it lifts the concrete and stabilizes the underlying soil, providing long-lasting support.
Finishing Touches
Once lifting is complete, Stratalock seals the injection holes, conducts a thorough inspection, and cleans the site, leaving your property looking great and ready for use.
