Keeping Homes Dry and Stable. We Guarantee Our Best!
Cracks in your concrete are not only unsightly, but they can be serious tripping hazards and could also indicate deeper issues with your soil or foundation. Concrete slabs such as those found on your driveway, sidewalk, pool deck, or garage may sink or crack over time due to a variety of factors. Much of the time it comes down to the quality of soil underneath the concrete. Soil shrinking or expansion, general erosion, frost heave, settlement, or even overloading of the concrete slab can lead to cracks. Cracks are merely an indication that the stress of the slab is too much for the underlying soil to bear evenly. Here at USS, we have helped thousands of Nashville homeowners and business owners repair the cracks in their concrete — giving them a smooth, even surface once again.
Concrete is the most popular building material in the world and has many wonderful strengths. However, it does tend to sink and crack. When fresh concrete is exposed to air, it shrinks a bit during hardening as the water in it evaporates. This type of shrinkage stress combined with the potentially poor soil quality below can lead to cracking and even total fracture of the slab. But our Nashville concrete repair team can handle it! We use cost-effective and reliable repair methods to lift and smooth concrete — filling cracks and air pockets along the way. Depending on your needs, we may recommend the PolyLift technique that uses expanding polyurethane foam to restore concrete to its intended position. We can then perform professional crack filling and sealing for a seamless finish.
Don’t let your cracked concrete take away from your property value or curb appeal or worse: put someone at risk for a fall injury! USS can take care of your concrete right away, and we know you’ll be thrilled with the results. Reach out to schedule your free estimate today!
