Concrete Leveling in Kearney
Kearney sits in Buffalo County, Nebraska. Kearney is home to about 33,809 people in roughly 13,579 households. Owners occupy 61 percent of the housing here, and 8,443 homes are detached single family.
The crew that covers Kearney works out of our Grand Island office, 39 miles away, about 50 minutes on the road. Building peaked in the 1970s at 2,716 homes, which is why the median year built sits at 1980. The survey reports a median home value of $218,800 and a median household income of $66,843. The split is 8,222 owner occupied to 5,357 rented. 7,225 of those homes were finished before 1980, 53 percent of everything standing.

View projectWhat we fix
The USDA survey under Kearney reads silt and rates its shrink swell potential moderate. Soil that changes volume against a wall through the year is the driver behind most of what we are called out to look at.

Kearney conditions
Based on NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the weather station northeast of Kearney, about 4 miles away.
The USDA soil survey inside Kearney comes back Hord at about 60 percent of the survey, with Holdrege and Grigston alongside it. By texture that survey runs 10 percent clay, 50 percent silt and 13 percent sand. The weighted linear extensibility figure, which is how much the soil changes volume between wet and dry, sits at 3.41 percent, a moderate shrink swell rating.
The 1970s put up more homes than any other period, 2,716 of them, and the median year built is 1980. Pre 1980 construction accounts for 7,225 homes here, and that is the group where original drainage is usually the story. 19 percent of the housing here, 2,621 units, sits in buildings of five or more, so a fair share of local work is on shared structures rather than single family homes. Mortgages sit on 57 percent of the owner occupied homes in Kearney.

"The thing that gets missed on patio jobs is drainage. The slab settled, sure, but it also changed how water moves around the house. Lift the patio back to original grade and you're not just fixing the cosmetic issue, you're restoring the drainage plan the original builder designed."

I had Alex and Noah come today to put in a new window well. I was impressed with their professionalism, caring about the work they did which was outstanding. They would ask me if there was anything else they could help me with. The fellas were super to visit with and worked efficiently at completing their work. They were perfect in cleaning up the area. I would certainly recommend them to the folks in ARAPAHOE.
I had some settlement on my house. Tyree and his crew were very informative. They did a great job and I am very satisfied with the work!
From the first day at my house Tyree had been nothing but helpful and informative on every step of the way. I would recommend Epp for any and all foundation needs!!

Concrete Leveling Sunken concrete can often be lifted instead of replaced.
Concrete Repair Self-leveling concrete is convenient, but it is weaker than traditional concrete and wrong for foundation slabs.
Foundation Repair Concrete slab foundations save money and energy, but homeowners should know the common issues: settling, cracking, and the repair options for each.
Concrete Leveling Mudjacking looks like a simple DIY fix for uneven concrete, but it takes precision and specialized tools.
