_Vancouver Concrete Repair Contractor
_A home is quite possibly the largest investment you will ever make. The sense of pride, security, and ownership is fulfilling and gratifying. Home ownership is, in fact, the American dream. Unfortunately home ownership comes with certain maintenance costs and liabilities. The costs are usually somewhat predictable as well as objective. Liabilities on the other hand are quite different. Living creates liabilities. Unfortunately, liabilities carry many costs that are unpredictable and subjective, costs that can't be projected, and related costs that can be very frustrating.

Most liabilities come from injury situations or neglect like having landscaping that hinders vision, owning an unfenced swimming pool, not picking up yard debris, and many other sources of possible injury. Homeowners tend to neglect these potential dangers since they're familiar with their own property. And, they assume potential injuries would be minor and would only affect those living on the premises. We tend to overlook how frequently our homes are visited by "outsiders" (repairmen, pest control workers, utility meter readers, salespeople, mail and delivery services, etc.). Our liability for injury on our property is greater than we often recognize.
No homeowner can be "liability proof", but if minor repairs can reduce the risk or eliminate some liabilities, then why not be diligent at maintaining your property? Small, cost-effective repairs help maintain property value, but they can also reduce your liability.
No liability has more exposure to cost than tripping on an uneven concrete driveway or slipping on ice in settled walk areas. Everyone walks on your concrete sidewalk or porch, or parks in your driveway.
What is your risk? While no two cases are exactly alike, you could have the following.
1. Injury costs
2. Law suit costs
3. Defense costs
4. Associated legal costs
5. Many hidden costs
6. Costs involved in settling out of court to make it go away
In the most minor cases of a trip-and-fall, you as a homeowner could pay several thousand dollars to fix or settle the liability. But why not eliminate the hazard before a lawsuit or injury finds it? How about raising the concrete to even joints and grades and remove the liability all together?
Would a few hundred dollars and the peace of mind be better than thousands of dollars of cost, worry, and frustration? Raising concrete is one of the most cost-effective ways to repair your concrete and bring you a little more security to your "American Dream Home".
