Concrete is lifting

It is common in California that decking will lift due to expansive soil. Expansive soil acts like a sponge. When it gets wet, it expands. When it is dry, it contracts. Often times, decks that are near highly hydrated vegetation will lift. Consider planting dry climate vegetation in those areas that require less watering. While it is rare that your decks will go back down, it should prevent additional lifting.
