Concrete Lifting and Leveling Before & After Photos

This customer in Amelia, OH, was concerned with the visible void underneath their concrete sidewalk. The void was about 6 inches deep, and probably formed from a combination of both soil washout and soil shrinkage from cycles between wet and dry weather. We went out and injected our PolyLevel foam underneath the sidewalk to stabilize the concrete. Our PolyLevel foam didn't just fill the void, it also compacted the soil beneath the slab. PolyLevel is a closed-cell polyurethane foam, so it won't hold water like other open-cell materials can, (like mudjacking). This will help prevent soil washout in the future. Now that the void is filled, the customer can look forward to their concrete lasting much, much longer than it would have otherwise. 

This driveway in South Lebanon, OH, had many uneven slabs, including the one seen in this before and after photo set. If you look closely at the before photo, you'll be able to notice the 2-3 inch gap between the back door and the driveway slab. Once we leveled out the driveway slabs with our PolyLevel foam jacking solution, the gap was completely closed, and the driveway is now flush with the backdoor. If you are interested in repairing your concrete, be sure to give us a call for a free estimate! 

This sunken and uneven concrete slab had become a nuisance to the homeowners. Located right outside of their back door, this was where their kids, dogs, and friends frequented. You see, because the slab had sunked so far, dirt, leaves, and other debris easily gathered on top of the stoop. If the homeowner did not sweep the slab everyday, their kids would be sure to track all of that debris into their home. We made sure that this slab would no longer be a magnet for leaves by raising it 3-4 inches with our foam jacking methods. Now, the homeowners don't have to worry about sweeping every day. 

In order to get this front porch back to how it was originally, we had to use our PolyLevel foam. We inject our Polylevel foam under the front porch to raise and level all the different parts of the concrete slabs to make them even again. In order to inject the foam, we only have to drill tiny pea-sized holes in the concrete slabs, which are very inconspicuous. After we level everything out, we then sealed all the gaps and cracks with our NexusPro sealant. The result is a front porch that won't settle again for a long time. Side note: The homeowner took out the flower beds near the front porch so we could have some room to maneuver, that's why you don't see them in the after photo. 

This homeowner called us because they had noticed some large cracks in their garage. They also noticed the cracks were "active" and were spreading in their depth. We went out to first jack the concrete slab with our PolyLevel foam. After everything was level, we then sealed the cracks with NexusPro sealant. It's important to seal large cracks like this because if water gets into the cracks, it can ruin the concrete further. The result was a satisfied customer, who could now stop worrying about their garage floor from cracking.
