Foundation Repair & Concrete Leveling Services in Falcon Heights MN

A homeowner in Falcon Heights, MN was concerned that his sunken concrete was a trip hazard for friends and family members and decided to look into concrete lifting in the area. The homeowner then noticed one of our yard signs in the neighborhood and decided to contact us to schedule his FREE estimate.

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Nate B., arrived at the home to inspect the areas of the homeowner's concerns and to answer any questions. Nate explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of settling slabs is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soils holding up the slabs. Over time, this causes voids and gaps in the soil and the slab would begin to sink. To fix this issue, Nate recommended our PolyLevel, a modernized solution to fix settling slabs. Our PolyLevel is made of a waterproof polyurethane expanding foam formula that accurately lifts sinking slabs within seconds. The homeowner happily agreed to Nate's suggestion and scheduled the installation date.

In about a month, our crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by drilling small 3/8-inch holes into the slabs and inserting the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, filling in the empty spaces in the soil and lifting the slab. Once it is lifted to the desired level, the crew seals the small holes with cement.
