Normal experiences winter like few others do. There’s an old saying if you don’t like the weather, wait 20 minutes.   When your ground starts to move, it will cause a lot of problems with your concrete. Slab jacking and mud jacking are the simple, cost effective fix.  Most Bloomington homeowners know to look for cracks in their concrete once settled, but those are not the only signs of concrete settlement trouble you can see.  Look for settled dirt or a “sinking” effect on surrounding landscape beds. Separations between adjoining slabs are another indicator of movement. Gaps between stairs, bricks, siding, and caulking are also some of the common signs you will soon need to raise your concrete.  While sunken patios, driveways, sidewalks, stairs and floors are obvious, being able to identify your troubled concrete ahead of time can save you hundreds of dollars in repairs. If you see any of these signs, give us a call for a free concrete inspection.
