Frequently Asked Questions about Concrete Raising

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why does concrete sink in Minnesota?
A: In Minnesota, concrete usually doesnt fail – the soil beneath it does. Our harsh freeze–thaw cycles cause water in the ground to expand and contract, creating voids under slabs. Clay-heavy soils in the Twin Cities area also swell when wet and shrink when dry, leading to movement and instability. Poor compaction during original construction, water erosion from improper drainage, and decomposing organic material beneath the slab can all contribute to settlement over time.
Q: How does concrete raising compare to replacement?

A: Concrete Raising

  • 1 Day Process
  • 50–70% Less Cost
  • Uses Existing Slab

Concrete Replacement

  • 3-7 Day Process
  • Full Tear Out
  • New Pour Curing Time
