Concrete Parking Lots in Lansing, KS

Not all cracking is equal. A few straight cracks are a surface problem you can seal. But the interlaced, alligator-style cracking that shows up on the aging Lansing Towne Center and Main Street strips is fatigue — the base has failed under years of repeated loads, and the surface is just following it down. Sealing that only hides it for a season.

We core and probe to read how much of the base is gone, then rebuild it: excavate the failed subgrade, add subgrade stabilization where the ground is soft, and proof-roll to a uniform k-value before any new concrete goes down. That is the difference between a lot that lasts another 25 years and one that alligators again in three. See what the signals mean in our concrete repair work.

Lansing’s ground changes with the terrain. In the low areas toward the Missouri River the soil is soft alluvium; up on the shoulders it is Grundy-Pawnee upland clay. That split sets how deep the base rebuild goes — soft ground needs more work before it will carry pavement. We read it lot by lot rather than assume one detail fits the whole site.

Then we control the cracking on purpose: jointed concrete pavement saw-cut on a planned grid, with dowel bars at the loaded joints for load transfer, and every cut sealed. Leavenworth County’s 36-inch frost depth means the mix goes down at 4,000 PSI and air-entrained.
