A resident in West Deptford, New Jersey was experiencing sinking and settling in their concrete patio. This can happen because concrete is often poured over recently backfilled soil around a home after construction. Over time, this loose soil settles and creates a void underneath the concrete. Unlevel concrete has many negative effects because it can be a serious tripping hazard. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Javier Hoyos Romero was able to help them with a solution. He suggested a polyurethane foam to level the concrete. Our foreman, Luis Aguirre, used the PolyLevel Injection System underneath the slab by drilling tiny holes into the concrete. The polyurethane foam was injected into the holes. The expanding properties of the polyurethane allow for accurate lifting and leveling of the slab. Now, there are no dangerous tripping hazards outside of the home.
In Mantua, NJ we used our PolyLevel Injections to raise this sinking concrete. PolyLevel will bring the concrete to a raised and level position, eliminating any tripping hazards.
This Elmer homeowner had sinking concrete slabs on his patio and outside the entryway to his basement doors. He called Quality 1st to discuss his options on whether to replace the slabs or not. The Design Specialist recommended the PolyLEVEL System; high-destiny polymers that raise the slabs back to be level.
A homeowner in Doylestown, PA raised their sinking and settling sidewalk area with our PolyLevel Concrete Repair System. Our team came out and inspected the entire area to ensure no tree roots were the root of the problem. These slabs were settling about an 1 1/2 and needed to be brought back towards original level. PolyLevel was injected underneath each slab area to fill the voids and raise it back towards its leveled position, removing the trip hazards.
After noticing the concrete slab leading to their front steps was slowly sink, this homeowner from Doylestown, PA knew it was time to act. The uneven surface had become a tripping hazard and was starting to pull away from their foundation, making their front entry not only unsightly but unsafe.
They chose to fix it using PolyLevel and NexusPro, a powerful combination for lifting, leveling, and sealing concrete. Technicians injected PolyLevel, a lightweight yet durable expanding foam, beneath the sunken slab to raise it back to its original position with precision. The process was quick, clean, and far less disruptive than a full replacement.
To finish the job, they sealed the cracks and joints with NexusPro, a flexible, long-lasting sealant that prevents water intrusion and future erosion. Now the homeowner's front walkway is level, secure, and looks like new giving their home a safer entryway and a serious boost in curb appeal.
