Challenge

The homeowners of a single family home, contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems when they noticed sinking slabs around their pool area that had settled as much as 3 inches. It was alarming to the homeowner because it caused tripping hazards, making it unsafe for their grandchildren. They called for an appointment with System Design Specialist, Mike Bonfante, to inspect the settlement they were experiencing and provide the best solution possible.

Solution

Quality 1st Basement Systems Foreman, William Perez, and his crew lifted and leveled the sinking slabs with the PolyLevel System. The crew was able to do the entire installation in one day, and within 15 minutes after installation the homeowners were able to walk on their pool patio. The Quality 1st crew drilled small, penny-size holes into each individual sinking slab. Using specialized equipment, the PolyLevel foam was injected underneath the Polyurethane under each slab. The foam expands and hardens raising the slab back to its original level, elevating and stabilizing the slabs. By installing the PolyLevel Systems, William and his crew leveled the entire pool area. After completion of the installation, the crew was able to quickly clean up to allow the homeowners to enjoy the rest of their day in the pool.
