Ground Consolidation Services lifts slabs, stabilizes soil, and fills voids with efficient and durable polyurethane resin. Prior to the soil repair process, GCS uses the Deep Look GPR system to reveal the full extent of sub-surface problems endangering your slab or structure.
Sinking slabs, unstable soil, and underground voids can eventually cause serious injury, costly litigation, and even death. GCS takes these issues very seriously. We, therefore, employ only seasoned experts with decades of experience using the latest in state-of-the-art technology.
Slab Lifting
Sunken slabs or structures create trip hazards, liability risks and are often a sign of further damage to come if the problem is left unaddressed. Fortunately, they can be leveled with high strength polyurethane resin. In optimal conditions, slabs and structures can often be lifted to within 1/8” of their original level. Polyurethane slab lifting is much more efficient and a lot less expensive than demolishing and replacing the slab or structure.
Common structures lifted include:
- Driveways
- Patios
- Garage Floors
- Pool Decks
- Stoops
- Steps
Soil Stabilization
Unstable soil often causes structural cracking, cave-ins, and sinkholes. Fortunately, soil can be stabilized and water infiltration stopped with polyurethane resins. Once the soil has been consolidated and strengthened, any slabs or structures resting on it can be leveled if needed.
Filling Voids & Deep Lifting
Undetected voids are a silent threat that can cause slabs and structures to sink or collapse without warning. Neglect can result in serious injury, litigation and even death. GCS can protect your property and assets from these possibilities with the latest void detection and repair technologies. When required, slabs and structures can be lifted from deep within the soil.
Ground Penetrating Radar & Soil Testing
The Deep Look™ wireless ground penetrating radar system uses a patent pending unique triple frequency antenna design to create the most accurate image possible of the area beneath your valuable structures. Conventional single frequency antenna GPR systems cannot deliver the same level of clarity. Ground Consolidation Services will use the Deep Look GPR to take remove all uncertainty and take the guesswork out of the diagnostic process. A crystal clear understanding of the problem provides the best foundation for accurate, durable and lasting repairs.
GCS also has tools for probing the ground’s soil density up to 40 feet deep. Used separately or in combination with the Deep Look™ GPR system, the soil probing process provides additional valuable information about the conditions of the ground you depend on to support your valuable structures.
