Concrete Lifting & Slab Support
Settled concrete does not always need to be removed and replaced. When the existing slab remains structurally suitable, lifting or support methods may be able to restore elevation, fill unsupported areas, and improve the surrounding surface.
The appropriate method depends on the condition of the slab, amount of settlement, underlying voids, soil conditions, drainage, and accessibility. A site evaluation helps determine whether lifting, filling, repair, or replacement is appropriate.
Concrete Replacement & Decorative Concrete
When existing concrete is too deteriorated for repair, replacement may be the more practical option. Scritchlow also provides decorative concrete finishes for new patios, walkways, entrances, and other exterior surfaces.
How We Approach Concrete Projects
Every project begins with evaluating the existing concrete and the conditions around it.
Depending on the property, we may examine settlement, cracking, soil support, voids, drainage, grading, surrounding elevations, accessibility, and the intended use of the surface.
From there, we recommend the repair or installation method that fits the project.
- Evaluate the concrete and site conditions
- Identify contributing settlement or drainage problems
- Recommend lifting, filling, repair, replacement, or site improvements
- Complete the work using the appropriate materials and installation method
- Review the finished area and provide project-specific guidance
Concrete Repair, Drainage & Site Services
Scritchlow provides additional concrete repair, drainage, accessibility, and site services for problems that may contribute to settlement, deterioration, standing water, or unsafe concrete surfaces.
Because concrete problems are often connected to surrounding soil, drainage, grading, and site conditions, these services may be recommended alongside concrete lifting, replacement, or other repairs.
A site evaluation helps determine which services are appropriate for the condition of the property.
