Settlement problems happen when the house gets constructed over expansive soils, which in most cases it is clay soil. This house was a victim of a terrible foundation problem which seems to be a settlement. When clay soil does not get enough moisture exposure, it tends to shrink, which causes the floor to sink in. After realizing the problem was only getting worse, and it was affecting more areas of the house, the Homeowners decided to call for help and opted for calling Arizona Foundation Solutions. Additionally, to concrete lifting services, Arizona Foundation Solutions do concrete step repair in Prescott, Arizona as well!
The foundation slab of this historic Phoenix home can be repaired by injecting a lightweight expansive polyurethane to fill existing voids and lift the floor slab - also known as PolyLevel.
This is done by drilling small 3/8” holes in the slab after which polyurethane grout is injected directly under the slab to raise it up to its Highest Practical Maximum.
An area of the homeowner's sidewalk going to their front door was settling, which is very common in this area. With the technology of PolyLevel, we were able to bring the sidewalk back up to a level position and fix the concrete stem repair down in Buckeye, AZ. Concrete floor repair and radon gas testing is an easy task for Arizona Foundation Solutions so all the families in Buckeye, Arizona, can be at peace!
