Settling Walkway in Saint Paul, MN Lifted with PolyLevel

A homeowner in Saint Paul, MN noticed that his walkway in front of the steps had tremendously settled causing a bit gap between the slab and the step. After putting this project off for a while, the homeowner realized that it was time to get it fixed so he began searching for concrete lifting in the area and found our website. After browsing through our website, the homeowner was impressed with our 5-star reviews and decided to schedule his FREE estimate.

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Canon T., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection and answer questions. During the inspection, Canon explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of sinking concrete is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground and washes away the supporting soils keeping the concrete slabs upright. For this reason, Canon recommended our PolyLevel, a water-resistant polyurethane formula that allows for accurate lifting of the slab. Unlike traditional methods such as mudjacking, PolyLevel is efficient, cures quickly, and is cost-effective. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They lifted the settling walkway by first drilling small holes into the slab and inserting the injection ports. Using an injection gun, PolyLevel is injected beneath the slab, expanding and filling in the empty spaces of the soil. This causes the slab to lift to the desired level and the crew would then seal the holes with cement. Once they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have peace of mind his walkway and front step is no longer a trip hazard! Are you experiencing something similar? Click HERE and schedule your FREE estimate today!
