The Importance of Foundation Repair
A foundation exists to provide a strong, stable base for the rest of your house. If it's not maintained properly, this can cause cracks in your home's exterior walls and could even weaken the structure. Any foundation damage is a threat not only to the structure but to the safety of the ones using or living in that space.
With any problems found in a concrete foundation, you are risking the health and safety of your family and your business. So, the moment you notice signs of foundation issues, call us and we will handle the restoration.
The Strong Building Foundation You Deserve
A concrete foundation is integral to the whole of your property. It needs to be strong, stable, and durable. If water gets into its channels it will need to measure immunity from subterranean moisture or seepage for when water seeps in at ground level, up through your basement walls, and out into flooring. It also needs to be able to bear weight without giving way under pressure – much like an Olympic pole-vaulter's steel spring that bends but doesn't break.
When you call for foundation repairs, we'll assess your needs and then create a solution. We calculate the size of installation required based on your building plans, considering the land relief, type of earth, surrounding features, and more.
Aside from repairs, we also work with construction companies and provide concrete foundation installation services to them.
Common Foundation Issues
Building foundations are tough to last, but it is possible for them to experience decay and deterioration at times. Vertical or horizontal cracks are a common sign of damage. This is sometimes a result of the building settling after being newly constructed or due to hydrostatic pressure. If you notice one that seems problematic, we have the ability to resolve this situation!
Contact us for the maintenance and repair of any problems you might be having with your foundation installation. We'll look at major and minor cracks and other signs of foundation problems, determining which are just cosmetic and which can pose a risk to long-term durability.
It's always a good idea to take periodic inspections and do preventative measures on your home or commercial properties in order to ensure that there will not be any problems in the future. We'd be happy to do that professionally for you and your property.

We at Lakeland Concrete Contractors Co are masters of concrete foundation repair and installation. We have years of experience in doing the job. We are proud to say that we are the premier concrete contractor of choice across Lakeland, FL, and nearby areas.
To ensure high-quality project output, we follow these installation and repair processes:
1. Ground/Foundation Assessment
Ground Assessment: Before we start any concrete foundation installation project, our experienced foundation inspectors assess the project site first. One of the things we look into is the type of soil. Poor soil conditions or unstable soil can affect the overall performance of any foundation. One type of soil that is very problematic is expansive soil. it is the type of soil that can cause foundation problems if not addressed or treated properly. But with our experience, you can be confident we can handle that.
Foundation Assessment: Foundation repairs are vital when you see signs of foundation problems, and more importantly, if foundation settlement happens. Soil erosion or soil movement is another reason that causes foundation damage. Our team checks everything including sticking doors and windows, which can be a result of existing foundation damage. We also look into improper drainage systems as it causes foundation problems, too.
2. Recommendations
Depending on the result of our experienced foundation inspectors' assessment, together with our structural engineer, we provide appropriate recommendations. Rest assured we base it on your home's foundation needs. For example, if we see a major foundation failure, we would recommend replacing the entire foundation surface. Depending on the problem, we can recommend carbon fiber or basement waterproofing for the basement floor. For new installations, we usually recommend having a crawl space foundation. This features an exterior concrete foundation wall that elevates the structure above ground level for easy maintenance.
3. Preparation and Delivery of Materials
Once you're good with our recommendations, we then proceed with the preparation of the site. We also schedule delivery of construction materials. We make measurements, clean up the space around your home or building so we start working on a blank slate. We ensure all materials are in place so we can start and finish on time.
