Concrete contractors in Gilbert, AZ
North Gilbert, the part of town inside our radius, is mostly 1990s and early-2000s subdivisions. NRCS soil maps show Contine clay loam over much of it, one of the more expansive soils in the Valley.
Driveways, walkways and patios first, plus pool decks, pads, walls and repairs, each one planned around Gilbert’s ground and the desert heat.
Expansive clay pockets
Pockets of clay-rich soil on the fan terraces and old basin floor that the soil survey flags for shrink-swell, such as the Carefree and Contine soils.
Expansive clay swells when it gets wet and shrinks as it dries. Here the swings come from a monsoon storm after months of dry heat, and from sprinklers and lawns that keep one side of a slab wet while the other side bakes. The ground under the slab moves unevenly, so slabs crack, edges lift and walks tip.
Remove the soft and organic soil, bring in compacted aggregate base, set rebar on chairs, and keep the moisture under the slab steady: drainage away from it, and turf and drip lines held back from its edges.
What fails here first
- Cracks that move with the seasons, worst after the monsoon
- Lifted edges along walks and patio borders
- Slabs tipping back toward the house or garage
- Cracks that line up with a lawn or planter bed
