Concrete, also known as cement, typically possesses an average strength of around three thousand pounds per square inch. However, it can exceed this average and become as robust as twenty thousand pounds per square inch. Concrete raising plays a vital role in soil cement stabilization around a property, effectively countering further erosion caused by water accumulation.

During the soil cement stabilization process, foam is injected into the ground wherever hollows or voids are identified. This foam usually consists of a mixture of water and cement, though soil stabilization can employ foam and polyurethane as well. The slurry effectively bonds with the soil surrounding a void or hollow, providing stabilization to the affected area. Once the foam solidifies and dries, your property becomes secure, and your foundation is shielded from the damaging effects of eroding soil. Concrete raising has been a proven method for addressing sunken soil issues for nearly a century, and it is equally efficient for elevating sinking walkways, sidewalks, driveways, porches, decks, and other parts of your property that may be impacted by soil erosion.
