It’s Not Too Late: Go Into Winter With a Smooth Driveway
OK, we get it — Nashville may only see about 6.5 inches of snow every year. However, that doesn’t mean it can’t get cold and icy. You all know what we’re talking about — that cold humidity that goes right into your bones and doesn’t come out until spring.
We may not have it all that bad come winter, but that doesn’t mean you want to go into winter with “driveway repair” still on your to-do list. How long has it been on that list, anyway? Here at A-1 Concrete Leveling and Foundation Repair, we suggest you start winter off right by working with our concrete contractors for concrete floor leveling. This will prevent cold temperatures and ice this winter from worsening the condition of your driveway, and you can move forward into the year with confidence and no worries.
Keep reading to learn more about why your driveway may be cracked or uneven, why to take care of driveway repair sooner rather than later, and why to work with A-1 Concrete Leveling and Foundation Repair instead of another concrete leveling company. And don’t forget to request a free quote for your driveway repair or other concrete lifting project while you’re here!
What Caused My Driveway Problems?
There are a variety of potential causes for uneven or cracked driveways that lead you to searching “how to level a concrete floor.” Any of the possible reasons may be at play on your driveway (including a combination of several or none of the options below):
- Erosion – The gravel or soil on the edge of or underneath your driveway could simply be eroding
- Tree Root Growth – A tree near your driveway may be spreading its roots and expanding underneath your driveway, where it exerts pressure and cracks the surface above
- Heavy Loads – Vehicles weighing more than 10,000 pounds could cause scars or cracking
- The Freeze/Thaw Cycle – This is crucial to look out for in winter if you have cracks in your driveway. Water can get into the cracks or seep into the driveway, freeze, and then expand
- Burrowing Animals – Rodents and other animals may make their home underneath your concrete driveway
- Improper Foundations – Incorrect materials or improper technique could mean your driveway is in poor condition because the foundation wasn’t built to last
- Sharp Objects – Snow shovels or other sharp objects can chip and crack driveways
Why Do I Need Driveway Repair?
OK — so why can’t you simply ignore the fact that you’re in need of driveway repair? After all, you can still get your vehicle on and off your driveway just fine.
- Future Cost of Damage – By ignoring the problem and continuing to use the driveway as if nothing is wrong, you (and the tree roots, animals, freeze/thaw cycle, etc.) could cause even more damage. This will lead to future repairs that are more expensive than if you simply scheduled concrete floor leveling now.
- Property Value – You’re not planning on selling your house anytime soon, but you actually decrease your property value more and more every day you postpone driveway repair.
- Peace of Mind – Not everyone recognizes this as an urgent reason to schedule concrete floor leveling, but we think your peace of mind is important! You can save yourself a lot of stress and at least a few headaches if you simply go ahead and get the concrete leveling and concrete lifting done while you’re thinking about it right now.
