Concrete Leveling in Seward, Nebraska
The concrete walkway and entrance steps at this Seward property showed visible settlement cracks and differential elevation between slabs, indicating ongoing foundation movement. Seward County's clay soils have a high shrink-swell rating, which causes seasonal expansion and contraction that can crack and displace concrete flatwork over time. Water management around the foundation perimeter was also a concern, as grass encroachment and soil erosion were visible along the concrete surfaces.
Epp Foundation Repair installed a linear interior drainage system with metal grate along the foundation perimeter to direct water away from the concrete and reduce moisture infiltration. The crew then completed new concrete flatwork, including the walkway and entrance steps, with proper control joints to accommodate future seasonal movement. The finished work restored a level, functional entry to the home with integrated drainage protection. Two crew members documented the project across 2 site visits with 100 on-site photos to ensure accuracy and thoroughness.
