Concrete Lifting Solutions

If the concrete around your North Little Rock home or business is cracked, shifted, or settled, let the professionals at Airlift Concrete Experts come and inspect your concrete and offer the concrete repair solution for your needs. We use a slab lifting method called polyjacking which is less disruptive and less costly than replacing the concrete.

Concrete is heavy, and when the soil underneath it isn’t properly compacted or has been affected by erosion, it will start to sink. Since the soil is likely not uniformly weak, that sinking is going to place the slab under stress, leading to cracks that come with elevation changes on either side.

Damaged concrete is not only unsightly but can cause a tripping hazard to you, your family, and visitors. Some of the most common areas that concrete lifting is used in North Little Rock include:

• Patios
• Parking Lots
• Sidewalks
• Stairs or stoops
• Driveways
• Pool decks
• Retaining walls
• Garage floors

Polyjacking is a cost-effective method of concrete repair. Polyurethane foam is also water-resistant so it won’t be affected by moisture and the concrete will stay level and stabilized for years to come.

Advantages of Concrete Leveling with Polyurethane Foam

1. Cheaper than Replacing the Concrete: When concrete slabs start cracking because of settlement, you have two options to repair it: Level the concrete while stabilizing the soil underneath or replacing the slab entirely. And even if you choose option 2, you still have to solve the issues that were causing the settlement before laying the new concrete. Concrete lifting can extend the life of the concrete while also eliminating the trip hazards.
2. More Precise and Long-Lasting than Mudjacking: While mudjacking might have been the old standard in concrete lifting, there is good reason that polyurethane foam is largely taking over that crown. Polyurethane foam offers a precision lift that cures almost immediately. It also is longer lasting than mudjacking and needs smaller injection holes. This makes the injection process easier on the slab.
3. Short Repair Time: Polyjacking, as polyurethane concrete lifting is often called, is a quick process, and thanks to the 15 minute cure time, you can use the slab almost immediately after we have left.

Foundation Repair in North Little Rock, AR

How Do You Know If You Need Foundation Repair Work Done?

Foundation problems should not be ignored. Knowing the signs that you may have a foundation problem is the first step in getting your foundation back to its original stability. Some of the signs to look for in and around your home are:

• Floor cracks
• Sloping floors
• Bowed or leaning walls
• Sticking doors and windows
• Wall cracks
• Gaps around windows and doors
• Tilting chimney

If any of these signs sound familiar, you might want to have a foundation repair professional come and inspect your home. The professionals at Airlift Concrete Experts have the experience to be able to tell if foundation failure is to blame for the signs you are seeing or if there is a different cause.

Our Foundation Repair Process

Most foundation repair processes are expensive and require tearing up landscaping to excavate in places around the perimeter of your home or business. At Airlift, we have a better way.

The keys to any good foundation repair are to lift the sinking foundation back to level and to provide a sturdy support system for the foundation going forward. Instead of achieving that by attaching steel piers to your foundation or sinking concrete cylinders under your home, we use polyurethane foam.

First, the foam as it expands hydraulically lifts the home much like foam would like any other concrete slab. This brings the foundation back to level.

Second, instead of seeking out load-bearing soil deep below the surface, the polyurethane foam fills the voids and compacts the loose soil beneath your home, ensuring that soil is load-bearing.

The process itself is in some ways similar to concrete leveling. After determining precisely where the foam must be injected, we drill coin-sized holes in the foundation floor and inject the foam solution. We continuously monitor the project to ensure that we don’t over-lift the foundation.

The Advantages of Using Polyurethane Foam to Fix Your Foundation

Polyurethane foam offers several distinct advantages over other foundation repair methods:

1. Lower Cost: While costs vary by project, lifting your home with expanding polyurethane foam offers a less expensive option than the standard piering systems.
2. Lower Impact: Here is the impact that foam leveling will have on your home: We drill small, coin-sized holes to inject the two-part foam through. The holes are later filled in. No heavy machinery, no ripping out or trying to replant landscaping.
3. Efficiency: With a faster installation time than piers and a shorter curing time than concrete, polyurethane foam will get your foundation fix done faster than the alternatives.

Getting your foundation repaired at the first signs of a foundation problem is important.
