Review Logo 4.8 (1,075)

In Saint Louis, the clay soil can shift and settle due to the area's fluctuations in moisture levels, which can lead to issues such as cracking and uneven concrete surfaces. With an average annual rainfall of approximately 42 inches, the frequent wet and dry cycles can exacerbate these problems, causing concrete to sink and become hazardous.

Types of Concrete Damage in Saint Louis

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Saint Louis

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.
