What Is Driveway Repair?
Driveway settlement is one of the most common concrete problems in Alabama. The clay soil beneath driveways shrinks during dry summers and expands during wet winters, creating the push-pull cycle that causes sections to crack, settle, and tip. A settled driveway apron at the garage, the section that tilts toward the garage door, is more than an aesthetic issue. It directs water toward the garage floor and the foundation wall behind it. APS Foundation lifts settled driveway sections with polyurethane foam injection, eliminating the trip hazard and correcting the drainage slope. APS also repairs cracked driveway concrete and addresses differential settlement at joints, where one driveway section has dropped relative to the adjacent section, creating a hazardous step.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does APS repair asphalt driveways?
APS specializes in concrete slab repair and leveling. Asphalt driveway repair is not a service we currently offer.
Can foam lifting fix a cracked driveway?
Foam lifting addresses settled sections and fills voids. It does not bond cracked concrete sections together. If your driveway is badly cracked and settled, we will assess whether lifting provides sufficient improvement or whether replacement is more appropriate.
