Los Amigos Concrete of Henderson | Reliable Fence Contractors in Henderson, TN

In Henderson, the main cause is expansive clay soil that swells when wet and shrinks during dry spells. This movement loosens the soil around fence posts, especially if they weren't set deep enough or with proper concrete footings. Los Amigos Concrete addresses this by excavating to stable soil, using reinforced concrete footings, and ensuring proper drainage around the post base.

Look for signs like cracks wider than 1/4 inch, uneven settling or dips, and areas where water pools after rain. In Henderson's climate, freeze-thaw cycles can worsen existing cracks. If the damage is isolated, we can patch and seal it. But if there's widespread cracking or significant sinking, a full replacement with proper base preparation may be more cost-effective and durable.

For Henderson homes on clay soil, the most reliable solution is installing concrete piers or helical piles that reach stable load-bearing soil below the clay layer. This stops further settling and can even lift the foundation back to level. Los Amigos Concrete assesses each foundation's specific movement, then designs a repair plan that addresses both the symptoms and the underlying soil issue.
