What Causes an Office or Warehouse to Sink

When you start noticing your main office floor is sloping and begin to realize there is a gap at your baseboards, there is a moment of panic. No one wants to deal with a large project that is going to make your work life less enjoyable. Like any other concrete section that has settled, foundation slabs begin to sink when the soil underneath the slab is not reinforced properly to handle the slab’s weight. Though the problem isn’t noticeable at first, over time the small warning signs become more and more pronounced. Fortunately, JACKCRETE can fix interior settlement without much inconvenience or expense before it becomes a much larger problem.

Concrete Foundation Leveling and Stabilization

By injecting spray foam in a grid pattern around the settled slab, JACKCRETE is able to reinforce the soil and stabilize the structure. Our technicians are trained to lift interior slabs within a 1/1000” variance when needed, and usually only take between 1-4 hours to complete an interior project. During our inspection, our team will let you know what, if anything, needs to be done to prep the site for our work. For apartment complexes and some offices, property managers will have to move large furniture out of the work area as well as roll back the carpet temporarily if needed. Once our team is done, your slab is lifted back to its original position and the furniture or equipment can be moved right back in.

Foam Leveling for Commercial Concrete Foundations

You have a few options for fixing a settled commercial concrete foundation- but they aren’t exaclty equal. Helical piers take a while to install and can be extremely expensive. Replacing the concrete is even worse, with tremendous prices and a total lack of productivity while the project is ongoing.

Concrete leveling avoids these problems. In one day, our crew can come in and stabilize or lift the foundation slab. No massive bills, and no weeks-long projects. 

Warehouse and Factory Floor Stabilization

We have some experience with leveling sunken warehouse slabs- in fact, we won a national industry excellence award for it. For larger slabs, the importance of technical precision and careful planning are paramount. Though a tricky job, JACKCRETE has the tools to get it done right.
