Signs of a Sinkhole
- Cracks in your driveway, walkways, or exterior walls

- Doors and windows that suddenly stick or won't close right
- Sloping, sagging, or uneven floors
- Water pooling in a spot where it never used to
- An exposed or sunken area along your foundation
What Causes Sinkholes in Orlando
Orange County's karst limestone dissolves unevenly below the surface, the same process that formed Lake Eola itself, and it's what puts homes across greater Orlando at real risk of new sinkhole activity.
How We Fix Sinkholes
Depending on what our evaluation finds, we use compaction grouting — pumping a cement-and-grout mixture deep into the soil to fill voids and stabilize the ground — or void filling, which lifts and supports affected concrete with structural polyurethane foam. Both methods are done with a real diagnosis first, not guesswork.

We understand the local terrain. Orlando's ground conditions call for a repair plan built around that reality.
Real diagnosis before any repair. A thorough evaluation to identify the actual cause before we recommend a fix.
