Don’t Replace, Repair: Irvine’s Experts in Concrete & Asphalt Restoration
That small crack in your driveway. The uneven patio slab that makes your table wobble. The sunken walkway that’s become a trip hazard. It’s easy to ignore these problems at first. But in Irvine, where we take pride in our homes, these issues can become dangerous liabilities.
Many homeowners assume the only answer is a total teardown. At GAGA US Construction, we are here to tell you there is a better way. We specialize in professional concrete repair in Irvine, saving you the time, cost, and mess of demolition by lifting and restoring your existing surfaces.
What’s Really Going On?
Before we fix it, we must understand why your concrete is failing. In Southern California, the culprit is almost always the soil.
The ground expands and contracts with moisture, eventually settling. This settlement creates "voids" (empty pockets) under your slabs. When the concrete no longer has solid ground beneath it, gravity takes over—causing the slab to crack, sink, and become uneven.
The Smart Solution: Concrete Leveling
If you have ever searched for "concrete leveling near me" after tripping on a walkway, this is the service you need. Also known as "Poly-Leveling," it is a fast, permanent fix for sunken patios and pool decks.
The 4-Step Process:
- 1. We Diagnose: We identify the specific void causing the sinkage.
- 2. We Drill: We drill tiny, discreet holes (size of a nickel) through the slab.
- 3. We Lift: We inject high-density polyurethane foam. This material expands, fills the void, and hydraulically lifts the slab back to level.
- 4. We Patch: We patch the small holes, and the surface is ready for use immediately.
Pro-Tip: Poly-Leveling vs. "Mudjacking"
You may have heard of "Mudjacking," an older method that pumps a heavy cement slurry under the slab. We prefer modern Poly-Leveling for Irvine homes because:
1. It is lighter (won't burden the soil further).
2. It requires smaller drill holes.
3. It is waterproof and won't wash away like mud slurry.
Asphalt & Surface Repair
Not all concrete problems are about sinking. We also provide expert concrete crack repair and asphalt driveway repair in Irvine.
From patching potholes with hot-mix asphalt to applying sealcoats that protect against the SoCal sun, we extend the life of your driveway by years.
