What Causes Sinkholes in Palatka
Putnam County's karst limestone dissolves unevenly over time, and that documented activity is what puts Palatka homes at real risk of sinkhole damage.
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.
