Winter’s freeze-thaw cycles may disturb the subsoil, causing a sidewalk slab to rise up or heave. Excessive rainfall or poorly prepared subsoil can cause uneven settling or sinking of a slab. Unruly tree roots can lift a slab or even crack it from bencath because of its own weight. When these conditions are noted, it is wise to take corrective measures as soon as possible before the problems are compounded. When a sidewalk slab has sunk, pry it up using a pinchbar or 2x4 as a lever. If the slab has sunk considerably, it may be necessary to dig alongside it to insert the lever. Prop up the slab, then fill the sunken cavity with earth or gravel to the level of the surrounding subsoil. Tamp it down as much as possible, then fill to slightly the slab back into place. The weight of the slab should compress the overfill to bring the surface level with that of the adjacent slabs. ff the slab has heaved, raise and prop the slab above. Dig out the raised subsoil to the level of the surrounding subsoil - a hand rake or garden trowel will do the job nicely. Then lower the slab back into place READERS ARE TO SEND THEIR QUESTIONS TO: SHELL BUSEY 8221-120TH STREET, DELTA, B.C.
