Significant Sunken Slabs Lifted in Plymouth, MN

In Plymouth, MN, a homeowner noticed the concrete slabs along their walkway and driveway began sinking causing large cracks and trip hazards to form. Tired of their bumpy driveway and the safety risks it posed, the homeowner began looking for "sunken concrete repair near me" and found us. Curious about our PolyLevel solution, the homeowner decided to contact us and schedule their FREE estimate.

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Brad W., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the slabs, taking precise measurements to see how much they had sunken and determining which areas needed lifting and leveling. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Brad began working on a detailed solution. He recommended using PolyLevel, our poly foam expanding solution installed beneath the slabs, effectively lifting them, and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant to repair the cracks and seal the joints. Happy to have a better solution than mudjacking, which will chip over time, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Bryce P., and his crew arrived and successfully lifted and leveled the slabs. Now, our customer can have peace of mind. Looking for concrete leveling? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!

Leaky Basement Gets Saved in Minneapolis, MN

A Minneapolis, MN, homeowner was dealing with a leaky basement. Each time it rained, it seemed as though water would pool on the floor and in the corners of the basement. In the interest of protecting his home, he decided to look for Minneapolis basement waterproofing and eventually found our website. He decided to sign up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Mac C, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

Mac got right to work inspecting the basement to see what we could do. When he concluded, Mac met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Mac wanted to use our WaterGuardThis French drain is designed to be installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing. This keeps this drainage system out of the "mud zone", where drains can clog. It works to collect water entering from holes or cracks in the basement floor, giving it a channel to the appropriate disposal site, a pre-placed sump pump. Installation involves removing a section of floor around the perimeter and creating a drainage trench. Sections of WaterGuard® are then placed within the trench, resting on a bed of drainage stone, and the floor is restored. The homeowner liked the sound of the work and decided to schedule the work for some time later. 

On the day of the project, Lane S, our Foreman, led his team through a flawless installation. Now, our customer can enjoy her home knowing that that her water intrusion issue has been handled! 

 

Radon Gas Eliminated from Minneapolis, MN Home

A homeowner from Minneapolis, MN, had just learned about the dangers of radon gas on a household and was worried that her home could be infested with the gas so she decided to find a radon specialist in her area. When she found our website, she signed up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dave S, was headed out to the home. 

When Dave arrived, the first portion of his inspection was to place a continuous radon monitoring test in the basement of the home to adequately gauge the levels in the home over some time, delivering an average after a 48-hour timespan. Dave explained to the homeowner that the Environmental Protection Agency recommends taking action with any levels higher than 4 pCi/L. Dave went on to say that, should the homeowner level return higher than 4 pCi/L, he would strongly recommend the installation of a radon mitigation systemA typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. When installed by a professional, this system will lower the concentration of radon gas in interior areas to minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner agreed with Dave's recommendation but decided to wait until the levels returned to make a choice. 48 hours later, Dave was back at the home to read the results, which returned marginally higher than the recommended action levels, so Dave and the homeowner worked together to find the best day for an installation. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team effortlessly placed the system in the home, successfully restoring our customers peace of mind in the air circulating in her home!

Wanting to get this issue addressed, he began searching for driveway repair in Minneapolis, MN, and found our website. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our concrete before and after photos, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Romeo V., arrived at the home to assess the driveway, answer any questions, and provide the best solution for the homeowner.

After reviewing Romeo's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed, glad he did not have to go through the process of mudjacking or slab replacement.
