Your Kansas City home is one of the biggest investments you will make. It may be your dream home, or it may be a step to owning your dream home. Either way, it’s yours right now, and you are proud of it. People buy a home for personal reasons. There are always things on a “wish list” when someone buys a new home. Curb appeal is usually one of them. That appeal can be shattered if the home needs concrete step repair.
It is important how your home looks from the street and how welcoming it feels when you walk up to it. If your home has concrete front steps or a front porch, make sure those steps are not sinking or uneven. Your steps could be something you have not looked at in a while. Your visitors notice it right away every time they approach your home.
Concrete Step Repair in Kansas City
Concrete front steps that need lifting may pose a threat to the foundation under the area underneath them. Water that runs towards the house where the concrete is uneven may compromise the foundation when it is raining or when the snow is melting. You might have a leak in your foundation if your basement walls are wet or if there is water on your basement floor.
Make sure your front steps are taken care of before it is too late to avoid the unnecessary costs of repairing your foundation.
We use eco-friendly polyurethane foam to raise and lift your concrete front steps into place. Polyurethane foam is lighter than traditional cement, water, and dirt-filled mud jacking. Foam jacking takes less time to fix, is less invasive, is less of a mess. It does not contract with the weather and will not settle.
Concrete Step Repair with High-Tech Foam
Steps should be 7 3/4″ high. Higher steps may be difficult for small children and older adults to maneuver. When steps begin to sink, the height increases and more damage to surrounding structural systems is a greater possibility. Fix problems with your steps when they become apparent. It is usually less expensive than waiting until they get worse!
