Concrete Leveling in Hickman, NE: Foam Lifting, Apr 15, 2026
The foundation area at this Hickman property showed significant concrete settlement, with vertical cracks and separation visible between driveway slabs and step transitions in the garage floor. Lancaster County's clay soil has a high shrink-swell rating, which commonly causes uneven settling and movement in concrete flatwork over time. The pre-inspection photos documented the extent of the damage before any repairs began.
Epp Foundation Repair removed and replaced the affected concrete flatwork, installing new slabs with proper control joints and sealant to prevent future cracking. The finished work restored proper grade and joint spacing throughout the driveway and garage floor areas. The entire job was documented with 30 on-site photos to verify workmanship and completion.
Completed and documented on site by Epp Foundation Repair’s field crew. Serving Nebraska homeowners since 1994.
