Resolving Surface Settlement In Parlin, NJ
Challenge
A homeowner located in Parlin, NJ was starting to feel overwhelmed due to significant signs of settlement surrounding their homes backyard patio area. This issue was causing the entire structural integrity of the walkway to have a severe decline, along with creating potentially fatal walking conditions for visitors and residents alike. Settlement commonly occurs as a result of unavoidable environmental factors such as, moisture, exposure to sunlight, and the largest contributing element being poorly compressed fill soil.
Instead of allowing this situation to worsen, the owner made the wise decision to reach out to our team of concrete repair experts.
Solution
To effectively resolve these structural challenges, we sent out our system design specialist Joseph who thoroughly assessed the property in order to successfully supply an efficient and reliable fix. Our specialist observed that due to poorly deposited soil, the concrete slabs were becoming extremely disheveled and ultimately safety standards were decreasing at a rapid rate. Following this analysis our foreman Ash and his crew arrived at the home and began drilling penny-sized holes in specific placements on the slabs, next the team injected our heavy-duty PolyLevel Foam beneath the sunken surface. This process entirely transformed and essentially restored the walkway to its original designated height. Not only did we fully repair and eliminate structural decay issues but we have also strengthened the load bearing capabilities of the entire patio by utilizing PolyLevels impressive ability to fill in voids and empty pockets stemming from poorly compressed fill soil beneath the surface. From this day forward this homeowner can enjoy their renewed sense of pride in their beloved backyard patio, as well as, guaranteeing that this surface is certifiably fortified to defend against future indications of settlement!
