Concrete Lifting and Leveling Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Lyndhurst, NJ had a sunken concrete patio that needed to be raised. PolyLevel is a light-weight, waterproof and environmentally friendly foam that is injected underneath each sunken slab. The form expands filling all voids in the soil and begins to raise the slab back towards its original level. 

A Lyndhurst, New Jersey resident noticed their concrete patio was sinking and settling. This can be a danger for tripping, and is caused by the drying out and shrinking of the soil below the slab. During times of warm weather, the soil under the slab can dry out and shrink. This leaves voids for the concrete to sink and settle. The homeowner called Quality 1st Basement Systems and our foreman, Sean Johnson, installed the PolyLevel Injection. These injections are done by drilling penny-sized holes in the slab, and the polymer foam is injected into the unstable slab. This injection will lift and stabilize the concrete.

This homeowner in Belford, New Jersey noticed their concrete walkway was becoming unlevel and cracking. This happens because concrete is poured over poorly compacted soil. Over time, this soil settles and creates voids underneath. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Jeff Pitek, provided an inspection and suggested they use polyurethane foam to lift the concrete. Our foreman, Ramon, used the PolyLevel Injection System to inject into the voids underneath the slab. This will bring the concrete to a lifted position within 20 minutes and will be safe to walk on. 

We recently were able to assist this Belford, NJ homeowner in resolving their ongoing settlement issues surrounding their home's entryway sidewalk area. After installing our powerful PolyLevel Foam Injections beneath the sunken slabs, we essentially were able to restore the settled surface to its original leveled height. Our team also applied our ultraviolet-resistant NexusPro Joint Sealant to the crevices and cracks of the walkway to fully ensure that it is safeguarded against erosion. After completing this repair process, the homeowner felt a renewed sense of pride in their entryway, thanks to the restorative power of PolyLevel!
