Problem – Driveways like the example above are common. If the settling is not causing a slope issue, (water draining under the drive to the foundation) they can often be ignored until you have a noticeable “bump” that is annoying and can cause chipping of the transition as seen in the picture above.

Delaying repairs however can cause cracking. As the supporting soils are washed away, voids form which creates uneven support raising the risk of cracking.

Solution – 1-855-752-2522 was called, injections were made near the foundation wall with additional injections made to insure total support of this six inch slab. Job was completed in three hours.

If you are considering repairs to your settled concrete call for a no cost, no pressure estimate,

    I saw your advertisement and need my rear patio raised. It settled a couple inches after all the rain we have had this year! How do I go about getting an estimate?

    Thanks
