What Causes Sinkholes in Tallahassee
Tallahassee's foundation risk is more often clay-related soil movement than limestone-dissolution sinkholes, since the Red Hills clay under the city expands and contracts with moisture — but when a true sinkhole or similar ground collapse does occur, we diagnose and repair it with the same methods.
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.
