Concrete Lifting and Leveling Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Burlington, KY reached out to us about their driveway, where several concrete slabs had settled unevenly, creating cracks and tripping hazards. The sinking slabs not only made the driveway look rough but also caused water to pool in certain areas, which could lead to further damage.

To restore the driveway, our team used PolyLevel®, a high-density foam that lifts and levels concrete slabs with precision. After bringing the driveway back to an even, stable surface, we sealed the cracks and joints with NexusPro®, a long-lasting, flexible sealant designed to keep water out and protect the concrete from future settling.

The result? A smooth, level, and protected driveway — all without the hassle or expense of a full replacement.

Do you have a concrete slab thats needs lifted? Here at The Basement Doctor, we can solve the problems that soil wash out can cause. In this case, soil had completely washed away from this front porch, and was close to completely cracking. Instead, we filled the void underneath with our PolyLevel foam. 

We used our expansive foam called PolyLevel to raise some concrete slabs in Greenville, Ohio. The old slabs would often collect mulch and soil, making it a hassle for the homeowner. We raised it to be an inch or two higher than the grade of the mulch. 

This high traffic sidewalk needed some repairing so the children attending this school would be safe from tripping. On top of fixing the concrete outside of the main entrance for the school, we also repaired this sidewalk. Sidewalks adjacent to a large street can be susceptible to a phenomena called street creep. As the adjacent road goes through cycles of contraction and expansion throughout the year, it can affect nearby concrete structures. It also didn't help that this sidewalk was right next to some trees, where roots can accelerate the aging of the sidewalk. Roots are not only strong, they can also suck the moisture out of the dirt underneath the sidewalk, which can make the sidewalk sink. Either way, we fixed the problem by injecting the slabs with our PolyLevel foam. This polyurethane foam is extremely lightweight and strong, and helped raise the slabs back into place. After everything was leveled out, we then sealed the injection holes and the gaps between the slabs. The result is a sidewalk that is safe for all the kids to walk across. 

The soil underneath this driveway had settled, causing the concrete slabs to sink unevenly. There were lots of cracks and gaps in the driveway, creating tripping hazards and making for annoying commutes. We leveled the slabs by jacking them with our expansive foam called PolyLevel. PolyLevel is stronger, lighter, and less messy than alternative mudjacking methods. We then sealed all the seams with our NexusPro sealant, which is UV resistant and super condensed. The result is a clean, smooth driveway that will now last longer.
