Concrete Floor Repair
Don't let sinking concrete jeopardize your home. Groundworks can restore concrete to its original condition with PolyRenewal™.
Schedule Inspection
A cracked, unstable concrete floor is a trip hazard and indicates structural instability in your Edmonton home—issues you’ll want to address immediately. Putting off repairs could lead to further deterioration and lower your property’s value.
Polyurethane foam injections can treat the symptoms of damaged concrete floors, such as cracks and uneven surfaces. Unlike mudjacking and store-bought sealants, they also fix the root cause of the problem, whether that’s soil instability, washout, or something else entirely.
That said, not all polyurethane injections are created equal. You need an environmentally friendly product that blends with the rest of your property and cures quickly. Groundworks’ SettleStop™ PolyRenewal™ ticks all these boxes.
What Is Concrete Floor Repair?
Expansive soils, water saturation, freeze-thaw cycles, and other common conditions in Alberta can damage concrete floors. Fixing these surfaces involves repairing slabs, sealing cracks, and lifting concrete.
Traditional repair solutions and concrete replacement are short-lived fixes that won’t solve the underlying problem. So, consider investing in polyurethane injections that can lift and stabilize your floor and ensure a safer and more even surface.
If concrete floor damage is part of a larger structural issue, such as sinking, we recommend slab piers and other foundation repair solutions.
Signs Your Home Needs Concrete Floor Repair
Repairs might be necessary if you notice any of these problems with your concrete floor:
- Cracks or dips
- Sinking slabs
- Hollow sounds when you tap on the surface
- Water accumulation or wet patches
- Spaces between the floor and walls
- Similar damage on sidewalks, driveways, porches, pool decks, and other concrete surfaces
Is Concrete Floor Repair Required?
We believe so. Ignoring a damaged floor can lead to bigger complications, like severe structural damage, especially if there is ground movement and water infiltration beneath the concrete. Trip hazards can also threaten your family’s safety.
It might be tempting to fix a concrete floor yourself. However, you could do more harm than good, so we recommend leaving things to the professionals.
