Concrete Lifting Advice for the Omaha Metro
Straight explanations of why concrete settles here, which repair suits which slab, and how to tell when lifting is the wrong answer.
Call or Text: (402) 625-4920Concrete in the Omaha metro settles for reasons that are specific to this region. Expansive clay swells when it is wet and shrinks when it dries, and it does that every year. Freeze and thaw works the same joints every winter. Patios, stoops, garage floors and aprons sit on backfill that keeps consolidating for years after the house is finished. And behind almost every void we look at, there is water going somewhere it should not.
These articles explain what is actually happening under your slab, which repair suits which situation, and when lifting is the wrong answer and replacement is the honest recommendation. If you would rather just have someone look at it, request a free on-site estimate or call (402) 625-4920.
