Settling Concrete Ruining Curb Appeal
Voids beneath the concrete walkway led to differential settlement of the slabs, resulting in misalignment and an unsightly appearance that detracted from the home's curb appeal
Sinking Concrete Causing Trip Hazards
With over an inch of vertical displacement between adjacent concrete slabs, trip hazards had developed. The homeowners expressed concern not only about the negative impact on the property's overall appearance, but also about the safety risks posed by the uneven surfaces.
Leveling Concrete with Slab Jacks and PolyLevel
To restore the integrity of the concrete walkway, our crew utilized slab jacks to carefully reposition each sunken slab to its original elevation. Once properly aligned, PolyLevel®-a high-density polyurethane foam-was injected beneath the slabs to fill underlying voids, providing long-term stabilization and preventing future settlement.
Concrete Power Washing
The concrete walkway was thoroughly power washed to remove surface contaminants and debris, ensuring optimal adhesion and performance of the concrete sealant during the application phase.
Concrete Joint Sealant
NexusPro® was applied to seal the control joints between the concrete slabs, effectively preventing water infiltration beneath the surface. This mitigation strategy helps reduce the risk of soil erosion and slab displacement, ensuring long-term durability and structural integrity of the walkway.
Concrete Sealing
To protect and extend the lifespan of the concrete surface, SealantPro® was applied as a penetrating sealant. This advanced solution bonds with the concrete at a molecular level, providing long-term protection against moisture, chemical exposure, and surface wear.
Leveled Walkway
As shown in the photo, the completed installation resulted in a properly leveled concrete walkway, eliminating trip hazards and enhancing both safety and durability. The surface is now structurally sound and designed to withstand long-term environmental stressors.
Improved Curb Appeal
The newly restored walkway significantly enhances the home's curb appeal, offering a clean, level surface that complements the property's architectural features and overall aesthetic.
