Challenge: Erosion-Caused Voids Threaten Church Parking Lot Stability

Location: Jones, OK (73049)
Project Type: Concrete Void Fill & Stabilization
Installation Date: October 2024

The Jones Assembly of God Church was experiencing a serious issue with rainwater runoff across their parking lot and driveway. Over time, heavy rainfall had washed away the soil underneath a section of the parking area, creating a large void beneath the concrete slab.

With no solid ground beneath it, the concrete surface was at risk of sinking, cracking, or even collapsing, creating a major safety hazard for church members and visitors. If left unaddressed, the church faced costly repairs or full slab replacement in the near future.

Concerned about the potential dangers and long-term effects, the church contacted Vesta Foundation Solutions for a professional inspection and a lasting solution to their problem.
