Concrete Lifting in Granite City, IL

Review Logo 4.8 (1,058)

In Granite City, the combination of clay and silty soils can create instability for concrete structures, especially after heavy rainfall. The average annual precipitation of 40 inches can cause these soils to become saturated, leading to sinking concrete slabs, uneven driveways, and damaged sidewalks. To address these issues, Foundation Recovery Systems utilizes a modern solution called polyurethane injection, known as PolyRenewal, which lifts the concrete back to its original position with minimal disruption and cures in just 15 minutes, allowing you to resume your daily activities quickly.

At Foundation Recovery Systems (FRS), a Groundworks Company, we specialize in concrete lifting and foundation repair services tailored to meet the needs of Granite City homeowners. Our experienced technicians are dedicated to providing exceptional service and high-quality repair solutions throughout Illinois. With our advanced techniques and nationally backed warranties, FRS is your trusted partner in restoring the integrity of your concrete surfaces.

Types of Concrete Damage in Granite City

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Granite City

Soil Erosion

Over time, water or wind can wash away soil particles beneath the concrete slab, creating empty spaces or voids that cause the concrete to sink or crack.

Poor Soil Compaction

If the soil beneath the concrete wasn't properly compacted during construction, it can settle unevenly over time, leading to cracks and sinking.

Tree Root Growth

Roots from nearby trees can grow under concrete slabs, lifting and cracking them as they expand.

Freeze-Thaw Cycles

Repeated freezing and thawing of water in the soil can cause it to expand and contract, putting pressure on the concrete and leading to cracks and lifting.

Heavy Loads

Excessive weight from vehicles, equipment, or other heavy objects can stress the concrete, causing it to crack and settle.

Moisture Changes

Fluctuations in moisture levels can significantly impact the soil's stability beneath concrete, leading to erosion and voids that cause the concrete to settle.

Understanding these common causes can help you take preventive measures to maintain the integrity of your concrete surfaces and avoid costly repairs.
