What is Slab Lifting?
Why Boca Grande needs Slab Lifting.
Boca Grande sits on layered marine deposits, shell beds, and a shallow water table, with Hurricane Ian (2022) storm surge plus annual rainy-season saturation working on it year-round. Post-storm slab voids and slow footing displacement are still surfacing across Lee and Collier counties.
Local conditions: Boca Grande soil & climate.
Soils. Boca Grande sits within the SW Florida bearing-soil profile: layered marine deposits, shell beds, and a shallow water table.
Water table. Water table is shallow — typical 2–5 ft below grade, with seasonal rise and salt influence near the coast.
Climate stressors. Boca Grande's climate stressors mirror the SW Florida region: Hurricane Ian (2022) storm surge plus annual rainy-season saturation.
Local challenges. Boca Grande's coastal exposure adds salt-laden groundwater, periodic storm-surge flooding, and accelerated corrosion of legacy footing reinforcement to the regional baseline. Boca Grande's building stock includes high-end coastal and gated-community construction with heavier point loads (stone veneer, tile roofs, expansive interiors). Shallow footings that worked for older lighter homes don't always carry these loads.
Typical building stock and dispatch. Boca Grande sits in Charlotte County, in the SW Florida region. Neighboring communities we serve include Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Placida with the same engineer-stamped helical pier specification.
How we install Slab Lifting in Boca Grande.
Three years after Ian, Southwest Florida is still finding hidden settlement — voids beneath slabs that didn’t fail at landfall but have since.
Our 4-step process — same protocol on every Boca Grande project.
- Free on-site inspection. Licensed specialist evaluates the structure, takes elevation readings, and identifies the root cause — at no cost.
- PE-stamped design. Our staff Professional Engineer specifies pier count, depth, torque, and capacity — sealed for permitting in your jurisdiction.
- Certified install. Partnered with Patriot Foundation Systems and Foundation Systems Supply crews drive each pier to a documented torque-to-capacity matching the design.
- Lift, load test, warranty. Hydraulic lift to target elevation, signed load test to confirm capacity, lifetime structural warranty issued same day.
