About Chicago Concrete Leveling & Raising Companies

Chicago concrete leveling and mudjacking companies provide solutions for sinking and cracking in concrete slabs and foundations. If you’ve found yourself tripping over that uneven spot in your front walkway for the zillionth time, it’s time to bring in the pros to see what’s going on.

Concrete leveling and mudjacking professionals fill gaps underneath concrete using a hose connected to small injection holes. A mortar-based or synthetic material is injected into the holes to fill the gaps and support the slab.

The holes are patched and sealed once the slab is level. Synthetic foam materials typically cure faster than mortar-based materials.

Concrete Leveling and Mudjacking in Chicago

Why Concrete Cracks and Sinks

Over time, the soil underneath concrete can settle or wash away. If the earth underneath a concrete structure wasn’t properly prepared and compacted to begin with, soil erosion may happen after a disappointingly short period of time. Uneven soil settling or erosion leaves some parts of the concrete unsupported, leading to sinking and cracks.

During wet weather, particularly during Chicago’s spring and summer rains, keep an eye out for soil washout and drainage issues near your foundation and other concrete areas. Improper drainage can also cause soil to settle unevenly, leaving gaps underneath concrete.

In the Chicagoland area, snow melt poses a danger to your concrete foundation, driveway, and other areas. Protect your home from snow melt to avoid soil erosion and foundation issues.

Stay ahead of major problems by checking for any unsupported areas of concrete after periods of extremely wet (or dry) weather. Inspect the edges of your concrete driveway, patio, foundation, sidewalks, walkways, and steps for any voids or gaps in the dirt.

If you notice any sinking or cracking or areas of concrete that are unsupported and may sink or crack in the future, call a concrete leveling or mudjacking company to address the issue as soon as possible. As time goes by, these problems will only get worse and more expensive to fix.

Preventing Concrete Sinking and Cracking

Once a concrete leveling or mudjacking professional has fixed any sinking or cracking in your concrete slab, take steps to prevent similar problems in the future.

Water that collects where it shouldn’t due to improper drainage needs to be addressed. Take a stroll around your property after a rainstorm to look for area of puddled water or obvious erosion. Contact a drainage system professional, and don’t forget to point out those specific problem areas.

If your yard slopes towards your foundation or driveway, this grading issue must be corrected. Landscaping techniques can be used to direct water to catch basins or street drains; adding, redirecting, or lengthening downspouts can also help move water away from your home. The pros will give you the best advice personalized for your home and yard.
