When it comes to concrete repair in your Muskogee, OK home, you probably put it off due to what the cost will be. The 
professionals at Pierman Foundation Repair Services uses a method for concrete lifting and leveling called polyjacking. This much more cost effective than replacing concrete. The cost of concrete leveling depends on how far it needs to be raised and the accessibility of the spot that needs to be repaired. The experts at Pierman Foundation Repair Services will come and inspect your concrete and give you a free estimate.
Concrete sinks and settles due to a variety of reasons. Some of these reasons are:
- Soil Shrinkage – The soil will shrink beneath your concrete during hot and dry weather, causing your concrete to settle into the voids
- Plumbing Leaks – Home with plumbing lines underneath the concrete may experience leaks causing the soil to wash away beneath your concrete
- Maturing Trees and Vegetation – If trees and shrubs are too close to the concrete, their root system can drink up all of the moisture beneath the concrete, creating voids
- Unstable Moisture Content – When the moisture beneath your concrete fluctuates, it causes movement of the soil and the concrete
Polyjacking is the process of injecting polyurethane foam beneath the concrete where it will expand and fill the voids. The first step in this process is to drill small holes in the concrete then injecting the polyurethane foam. This foam expands into a lightweight, durable material that will lift and support the concrete for many years. This process is simple and less invasive than other means of concrete leveling. The concrete can be used immediately after the repair is completed.
