Why does concrete sink in VA?

You can blame it on Virginia soils. Depending on the soil composition and ground moisture, soils will expand and contract over time, leading to voids under the concrete. Clay soils are especially absorbent, such as those present in Virginia's soils, including the state soil, Pamunkey, which has yellowish red clay loam in its subsoil. As voids form during dry hot spells, the soil is unable to support the concrete and it will begin to sink. Your concrete will also sink if the soil under the concrete was too weak to begin with. The weight of concrete slabs and the loads placed on the concrete (cars, furnishings, equipment) requires a stable, strong soil base. This shifting of concrete into the soil is called “concrete settlement.” It's important to choose a concrete repair technique that addresses underlying soil issues.

Reasons for Cracked Concrete Slabs

• Weak initial soils unable to support weight
• Erosion over time
• Shrinking and expanding soils
• Moisture issues in soil

What concrete problems does PolyLevel fix?

Residential concrete is an ideal material for walkways in and around your Virginia home and for outdoor living spaces, like sunrooms and porches. When that concrete settles or cracks, it stops serving its purpose and may become unsafe. Cracked, uneven concrete is also unattractive, detracting from the beauty and value of your home. Homeowners in Virginia seek out PolyLevel, looking for the best method for sidewalk raising, lifting concrete slabs back to their original position, and addressing the first signs of concrete settlement in their driveway, pool deck or interior concrete flooring.

How to Choose a Concrete Repair Company in Virginia

In addition to looking for a Virginia concrete repair company who serves your town or region, you want to know that they understand the causes for failing concrete and have concrete repair solutions that are effective, long-term, and affordable.

A Concrete Solution You Can Trust

PolyLevel is a two-part expanding foam solution effective in many concrete lifting applications, in both residential and commercial settings. Concrete repair alternatives to PolyLevel include complete concrete replacement and “mud jacking,” an industrial application that uses a thick cement slurry to fill in the gap underneath sunken concrete. Both of these techniques are excessive when fixing a set of stairs that has pulled away from the home, or raising a patio concrete slab back to its original level. These alternative methods are disruptive, time-consuming, costly, and don’t address the soil-related issues that cause concrete settlement. Using foam to raise sunken concrete is the best solution for many concrete problems because it is fast, effective, less disruptive to property, and affordable. In addition, PolyLevel is a less intrusive process for lifting concrete that doesn't add more weight to the problem.

A Contractor You Can Trust

Your local Virginia PolyLevel contractor is an independent company supported by a national concrete repair network. In addition to reading reviews, check out past work by your local concrete contractor. A before-and-after picture showing the results of lifting and leveling an uneven concrete slab is worth 1,000 words!

The final step in searching for a contractor who can fix your home’s sunken or cracked concrete is to get an idea of the cost involved in fixing your concrete. After inspecting your sunken concrete, your local contractor should be able to propose a solution and provide a written estimate for repair costs.
