Cracked and Settling Porch Lifted and Sealed in Faribault, MN

A homeowner in Faribault, MN, was concerned about his settling back porch, which was a tripping hazard for family and friends. He searched for "porch sinking repair" and found our website. After browsing our website, he was impressed with our before-and-after photos and decided to schedule his FREE, no-obligation estimate. 

Our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home on the scheduled date and conducted a thorough inspection of the back porch. He explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of a sinking porch is soil compacting and settling. When a soil's load-bearing capacity exceeds, it causes the support soil beneath the concrete slab to expand and contract. This eventually leads to concrete sinking and, in most cases, cracks forming in one or more parts of the slab. To fix this issue, Mitch recommended our PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints. The homeowner was thankful for Mitch's explanation and decided to move forward with his recommendation. Mitch's design was then sent to our Foreman, Jordan S.

In about a month, Jordan and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began lifting the concrete by drilling small holes into the slab and installing the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, causing it to lift. Once it has been lifted, the crew ensures it is leveled before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints. Both PolyLevel and NexusPro are long-lasting with high durability. Once the crew was done with the installations, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have peace of mind with his porch leveled and crack-free! Are you experiencing something similar? Schedule your FREE estimate today by clicking HERE!
