Concrete Raising Systems is a local, Kansas City-owned concrete repair company in business to provide residential and commercial customers with a better alternative to concrete leveling and traditional mud jacking. We use a state-of-the-art Polyurethane foam injection material instead of the traditional mud jacking processes that use dirt, water, and cement mixture. Since 2012, Jason and Ken have owned Concrete Raising Systems. They are the experts who do the concrete lifting work. Pictured below is Jason, foam jacking a driveway! Small jobs are not a problem for us. We are a small business and we appreciate all sizes of jobs! Using Concrete Raising System is a cost-effective, eco-friendly alternative to traditional mud jacking. When you choose Foam Jacking, you won’t have to raise your concrete again!
Concrete sinks as the soil underneath a slab, either compacts (the water in the ground has evaporated to the point that it has shrunken) or a void or pocket has been created due to erosion from running water (from a downspout or a natural sloping of the ground toward your cement) or rainwater, causing a concrete slab to sink, settle or become uneven.
The weather in our Kansas City region is usually fairly dry. When a region experiences less rain or moisture, the water in the soil evaporates which dries the soil causing the cement slabs to sink into the ground in an uneven way. Winter snow and ice or improper draining onto your driveway can be especially problematic for concrete. Make sure when the ground thaws each spring you check your driveway and sidewalks for gaps between the concrete slabs. If you think you may have an issue with sinking concrete, call us. The sooner you call us the more cost-effective our visit can be! Contact the polyurethane foam- mud jacking- concrete repair experts at Concrete Raising Systems today! All we do is concrete leveling with foam in Kansas City!
Foam jacking is a two-part process where polyurethane foam is injected through holes in the concrete approximately that is 5/8” in diameter. The concrete is effectively raised with the expansion of the foam. The concrete lifting material will first expand in the weak soil to consolidate and cause the dirt to become denser and fill all voids below the concrete. It expands in all directions, sometimes as much as 7 feet, so fewer holes are needed to raise the concrete. The foam is set in 30 minutes. Our foam jacking method will not retain moisture so it is not subject to erosion once it is set. Polyurethane foam mud jacking does not settle due to its lightweight nature. Foam weighs 3-8 pounds per cubic foot. The small holes are professionally patched by the professionals at Concrete Raising Systems!
