Solution

One of our Design Specialists arrived at the home on the scheduled date and assessed the driveway. He explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of sunken concrete is soil washout. When it heavily rains or floods, water runs through the ground underneath the concrete slab. Water then washes away the supporting soils holding up the concrete. As this continues, it leaves voids and gaps under the slab, eventually causing the concrete to sink or cave in. For this reason, our Design Specialist recommended PolyLevel and NexusPro. PolyLevel is a high-density polyurethane formula that expands, stabilizes, and lifts concrete slabs. Our NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that is used for joints and cracks. Both solutions are long-lasting and have high durability. The homeowner was grateful for his explanation and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dylon M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by drilling small holes into the concrete slab and installing the injection ports. Then, PolyLevel is injected underneath the slab, lifting the concrete. Once the concrete slab has been lifted, the crew ensures that it is level before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the joins and cracks. After the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
