​Common causes of concrete settling in Dublin, CA

Providing a long-lasting concrete leveling solution starts with understanding the root causes of concrete settling:

• Water - The soil beneath concrete slabs is constantly in a cycle of absorbing moisture and expanding, then drying out and contracting. Long-term exposure to this cycle can cause the slabs to sink. Further, when water freezes and thaws during colder months, it can shift the soil beneath concrete, which can also cause sinking.
• Dry soil - If soil stays dry for a long period of time, it will shrink. If it shrinks enough, a void will form beneath the concrete and cause it to settle. This type of settling happens frequently in Dublin, CA during droughts.
• Insufficient soil compaction - Construction workers sometimes fail to pack the soil before pouring the concrete, which leaves room for the slabs to sink as gravity takes its toll over time.
• Animals and pests - Burrowing animals like groundhogs and chipmunks can dig voids beneath concrete slabs, causing them to sink. Even ant colonies can cause soil to shift around enough for the concrete to settle.

How we perform concrete leveling in Dublin, CA

The process of concrete leveling is essentially the same no matter the type. Our contractors first drill holes in the sunken concrete slab. Then we inject a material into the holes which will fill the voids underneath the concrete and push the slab up to be flush with adjacent slabs. The material to be used depends on the type of concrete leveling to be done. We use a limestone slurry for stone slurry grout leveling, a polyurethane foam for foam leveling, and a soil based grout for mudjacking. Finally, we fill the holes so it looks like no holes were drilled at all.
