Concrete slab lifting has been used successfully in many different applications, from residential driveways and sidewalks to commercial parking lots and warehouse floors. Here are some real-life examples of successful concrete slab lifting projects
Concrete slab lifting is important for several reasons. First, it can save you money. Instead of tearing out and replacing the entire slab, which can be costly and time-consuming, you can simply lift and stabilize the existing slab. This can result in significant cost savings.
Second, concrete slab lifting is less disruptive to your property than traditional methods of repair. Because there is no need to remove and replace the slab, there is less noise, dust, and debris. This means less disruption to your daily routine and less inconvenience for your family or customers.
Although difficult to perform and perfect without the right tools and training, concrete lifting or leveling is a straightforward process that follows three basic steps no matter the method being used:
- Holes are drilled in strategic locations throughout the affected concrete slabs.
- A compound is pumped through the holes and underneath the slab where it fills any voids and creates enough backpressure to cause the concrete to rise.
- Once the concrete is in the proper place, the drill holes are patched.
Types of Concrete Lifting
As mentioned before, there are three main methods that follow the same general steps in order to lift concrete, but they differ when it comes to the material they use and the size of the drill holes.
