Is polyurethane concrete lifting a long-term solution for concrete settlement issues?
The polyurethane foam used in our process is durable and resistant to water, chemicals and other environmental factors, which means that it will maintain its structural integrity and lifting capacity for many years.
The cause of settling needs to be determined and assessed prior to lifting. In some cases, if the underlying soil or substrate is unstable or prone to erosion, additional settlement issues may occur.
Some possible causes of settling:
- Improperly placed downspouts,
- Broken pipes,
- Animal damage,
- Poor or improper original concrete installation,
- Heavy traffic and/or vibration,
The cause of settling must be addressed to prevent further movement and provide long-term stability of the area.
