Concrete Lifting in South Charleston, WV

Review Logo 4.7 (197)

Concrete needs stable ground to function properly, but heavy precipitation and clay soils in South Charleston make this a challenge. The combination of clay-based soil and precipitation causes the ground to expand and push up against concrete on your property. As the process continues, you are left with cracked and uneven concrete. Basement Authority of West Virginia has an innovative solution that solves the problem: PolyRenewal. This polyurethane injection system quickly lifts and supports concrete in just 15 minutes. Even better, its waterproof design provides an effective barrier between the solution and the clay soil for even more protection.

Basement Authority of West Virginia (BAWV), a Groundworks Company, specializes in helping homeowners with their foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space, and concrete needs. Our top priority is providing high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service across West Virginia. With fully trained technicians, industry-leading products, and nationally backed warranties, BAWV is here to restore your foundation or basement.

Types of Concrete Damage in South Charleston

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in South Charleston

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.
