A homeowner in Pitman, NJ contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to repair their sinking concrete sidewalk. We solved this issue by using our PolyLevel Injection to raise the concrete again. Thanks to our System Design Specialist Nelson, and our foreman Ramon, the homeowner's peace of mind was restored!
The installation to raise a sinking concrete slab is very simple. Small penny-sized holes are drilled into sections of the concrete and polyurethane foam, PolyLevel is injected underneath the slab. We found that concrete sinks due to the soil underneath the slab. Soil becomes weak when it is too wet or too dry and can no longer support the weight of the concrete. PolyLevel is a lightweight foam that provides additional support, permanently stabilizing the patio area.
Don't ignore your sinking concrete! As soon as you start to see settlement or a trip hazard, address the area with a professional right away to avoid an accident. Our team raised an entire concrete porch area located in Phillipsburg, New Jersey with our concrete raising system known as, PolyLevel. Since this concrete porch was in great condition with no cracking, our team injected the PolyLevel Foam underneath, to fill the voids and raise the slabs back towards their original level.
Check out how we fixed this sinking and settling concrete porch area. Quality 1st Basement Systems met with a homeowner in Phillipsburg, NJ to provide them a solution for the unsettled porch area they had been dealing with for quit some time. Our team used Polylevel to lift, level and stabilize each concrete slab area. Stabilizing the concrete will prevent future movement and settlement since it fills the void between the weak soil and concrete. This environmentally friendly and waterproof, polyurethane foam is the perfect solution for settling concrete that is not crumbling.
This Phillipsburg, NJ homeowner reached out to our team of concrete repair experts after noticing settlement near their driveway, to avoid potentially dangerous walking conditions and a decline to the structural integrity of the walkway they decided it was time to find a permanent solution. We were able to set up a formal meeting with our system design specialist Joseph, who was able to examine the issue and supply the owner with a reliable fix. Shortly after this evaluation our foreman Ash and his crew arrived at the home and began installing our fortifying PolyLevel Foam Injections beneath the slabs to lift and restore them to their initial height. To complete the process the crew also applied our ultraviolet resistant NexusPro Joint Sealant to the cracks and crevices of the slabs to safeguard against erosion. With these powerful products in place this driveway is now without a doubt entirely protected from further settlement obstacles.
