Testimonials

I had a large issue in the driveway of my home. Multiple cracks. It sounded hollowed as you stomp on it in multiple areas. WHAT THEY DID: They filled up the gaps inside. They repaired superficial cracks very well. They brought up the issue of how rain water could be coming under my driveway and causing more cracks in the future.

Just wanted to let you know that Josh and Nathan came today to take care of our driveway issues. They both did an excellent job in a very professional manner. We will definitely recommend A-1 Concrete Leveling to our friends here, should they have need of such services! Thanks again for your help and Deanne's help in resolving our driveway issues.

We needed part of our front sidewalk leveled, and also porch stairs. Rhett was on time for the estimate and thorougly explained what had to be done, and how it would be done. No rush, willing to answer any questions at all. They called and had an earlier opening than promised so we got it done even sooner than we had hoped. Everyone was very professional and knowledgeable.

I know I had a lot of questions and I appreciated your patience. Your crew did a great job! I walked/crawled around before they left and it was exactly as I expected. The contractors I’ve hired so far for various projects cut a lot of corners and I wouldn’t hire any of them again. I’m glad Luis recommended A1. I will recommend you to anyone looking for foundation work as well.

Why Your Crawl Space Might Be Harming Your Home

June 19, 2023

For many homeowners in Nashville, the crawl space is an area that’s almost always out of sight and out of mind. However, this oft-neglected space can sometimes be a source of severe problems for the health and longevity of your home. In today’s blog post, the team at A-1 Concrete Leveling and Foundation Repair is sharing four ways your crawl space could be harming your home, and what you can do about it!

Energy Efficiency Costs

Did you know that a poorly insulated crawl space could be costing you hundreds of dollars in energy bills each year? Indeed, a lack of insulation in your crawl space means that hot and cold air can escape your home easily, causing your home’s energy efficiency to plummet. This is why it’s so important to make sure your crawl space is fully insulated and sealed.

Structural Weaknesses

Crawl spaces also support the weight of your home, and if the support fails, it can lead to cracks, uneven floors, and other issues that can quickly become expensive. To help you prevent such disruptive problems, A-1 Concrete Leveling and Foundation Repair offers multiple crawl space repair services in Nashville, including floor support installations, house framing fixes, and more.

Moisture Accumulation

Moisture accumulation is one of the most common problems when it comes to crawl space damage that can adversely affect your home. Whether it’s from rainwater, groundwater, or even humid air, moisture in your crawl space can cause mold, mildew, and bacteria to grow. This presents a serious hazard for your family, which is why we recommend encapsulating your crawl space or installing a crawl space dehumidifier.

Flooding

The next step after water accumulation is water infiltration — a major problem that we often see in Nashville homes. Following heavy rainfall or plumbing leaks, your crawl space can become flooded and cause damage to the underlying foundation of your property. For this reason, we offer crawl space drains and sump pumps that can help you keep your home safe and water-free.
