Cedar Valley Concrete Raising

benefits of raising concrete vs. replacing concrete

why choose us?

Many customers are spending money replacing structurally sound concrete that just needs to be raised.
Below are the reasons why concrete raising may be a better choice for repairing sunken concrete. Of course, not all concrete can be raised. If there are many structural cracks than replacement might be the only option.

QUICK PROCESS

Raising concrete is exponentially faster than replacing concrete. Repaired areas are ready within minutes to be utilized, as they were intended.

COST-EFFECTIVE

When compared to concrete replacement, the process of raising concrete with polyurethane foam is much more inexpensive.

About Us

For as long as you own the residential property Cedar Valley Concrete Raising warranties any resettlement beyond 1/4″ as long as the concrete has been in place at least ten years (fully settled soil). Cedar Valley Concrete Raising will re-lift one time during the warranty period any sections that have re-settled more than 1/4″ at no charge. If the concrete resettled immediately (within two weeks of raising) and you inform us in a timely manner, we will relift an additional time at no cost.

On concrete placed on un-compacted fill (less than ten years old) Cedar Valley Concrete Raising will re-lift any sections that have re-settled more than 1/4″ for a two (2) year period at a 60% discount. This covers only material and labor.

If CVCR caulks all control joints for slabs lifted and surrounding slabs, then a 5 year warranty will be applied. If homeowner caulks all areas lifted, then a 2 year warranty will be applied. If the areas that are lifted by CVCR and are not caulked, no warranty will be applied. With a warranty, the same rules apply as stated above. One free re-pump over a 2 or 5 year warranty with a fall of a quarter inch or more.

The warranty does not include patches or sealant applied to, or between slabs. The warranty is void if cracks and joints are not sealed on the slabs or if backfill is not maintained along the slabs involved or if the settling occurs as a result of flooding, earthquake or other acts of God. Water draining off structures such as downspouts near concrete slabs, ponds overflowing and broken sprinklers can result in settling not covered by the limited warranty.

Cedar Valley Concrete Raising carries materials on our trucks to seal cracks and joints for an additional fee. We proudly use Hi-Tech silicone caulking a commercial grade concrete caulk. Caulking adhesion warranty is one year.

a little information

How it works

Sinking, settling, and un-level slabs is a problem that can be seen on old and new homes alike. It is typically caused from poor soil conditions, or it could be a result of improper building or pouring techniques being used during the time of construction. Cedar Valley Concrete Raising repairs surfaces such as sidewalks, basement floors, office floors, driveways, footings, patios, garage floors, pool decks, warehouse floors, etc.

Drill

Our polyurethane foam method uses the concrete slab itself as a means of delivering poly foams that raise concrete, fill voids, and stabilize soils. A5/8” hole is drilled through the slab into the subgrade. A tapered delivery port is installed into the 5/8” hole. The injection gun is connected to the port.

Pump

After the small holes are drilled, our technician then carefully injections a two part liquid polymer into each hole. The material is stored in our trailer and pumped through a heated hose and then discharges through our specialized spray gun. The two-part liquid turns into expanding foam once mixed below the slab. The expanding polyurethane foam quickly fills open voids, stabilizes weak soil and lifts the slab. The technician carefully monitors the process to ensure a perfect lift.

Patch

Once all the concrete slabs have been fully lifted, leveled and stabilized, the technician then fills each small hole with grout to ensure a tight seal. Your concrete is now …
