This section of concrete patio for this homeowner had cracked and settled 5 inches.

The results in this corner of the patio were outstanding! The patio went from being an unsightly trip hazard, to being raised up to level and safe. And no demolition required.
This before and after series highlights the effectiveness of PolyLevel for lifting and leveling concrete slabs. This homeowner was very concerned with the individual concrete slabs he had running along his view of the Merrimack River in Manchester, NH. There were several tripping hazards, and overall it was becoming more and more unsightly.

A homeowner in Barre, Massachusetts, had purchased their childhood home that their parent previously owned for 20 years. For the past 10 years, the kid had purchased the parent's home and lived there with their family. Over the last 10 years, homeowners have noticed sinking around the stairs on their pool in the backyard. Our design specialist recommended installing PolyLevel and NexusPro near the stairs of their pool.
This homeowner in Gardner, MA was concerned with the concrete step outside their front door. Over the years it had settled and was sloping to one side. as the concrete continued to sink, the step through the front door was becoming too high. Rather than replace the entire concrete step, which was still in good condition, the homeowner was seeking a repair to simply level it out.
Our team proposed jacking the step up and stabilizing it with PolyLevel. This PolyLevel injection process was cost effective for the homeowner, and provided them with a permanent solution. They were able to use the step again within minutes, and the entire concrete slab was leveled and safe once again.
This homeowner in Holden, MA was very concerned with the interior concrete slab in their mudroom entrance area. The concrete had settled significantly, leading to large cracks in the surface, and making it impossible to remodel the space. It was also unsafe and likely to get worse as the slab continued to settle.
Rather than demolish the entire slab (dirty and costly), the owner sought out an alternative way to solve the problem, which he found in PolyLevel.
Our team installed the injection foam and not only stabilized the interior slab, but lifted it up several inches in some locations. With the dangerous voids beneath the slab now filled, the homeowner continued with their remodel project.

The causes of concrete settlement and sinking are the same whether it's a driveway, walkway, patio, garage floor, or pool deck. As soil underneath a concrete slab shrinks, settles or washes away, this leaves empty space, or voids, beneath the slab. With the soil no longer supporting the slab, the concrete will sink, creating an uneven surface.
PolyLevel uses a high-density polyurethane foam to fill voids and stabilize and lift sinking concrete slabs. The expanding properties of the two-part urethane formula allows for accurate leveling of the slab. The result is a waterproof repair that's much more permanent than mudjacking and other common concrete repair methods.

Before PolyLevel, there were two basic options for lifting and leveling concrete: mudjacking and slab replacement. Both approaches have limitations and disadvantages. PolyLevel offers many advantages over traditional concrete leveling methods:
PolyLevel Foam Injection |
Mudjacking or Slabjacking | |
Cure Time | 15 minutes | 24 hours or more |
Material Weight | 2 lbs per cubic foot | 100 lbs per cubic foot |
Hole Size | 5/8" (size of a penny) | 1" (size of a quarter) |
Waterproof | Yes | No |
Replacing a concrete slab is both expensive and disruptive. Concrete slabs can take days - or even weeks - to cure. Pouring new concrete over bad soil often delays future problems and leaves unsightly patchwork. PolyLevel material is lightweight, so it won't add weight to weak soil. Best of all, PolyLevel allows for use of concrete within hours, not weeks.
If your concrete is structurally-sound, why replace it? Replacing the concrete won't fix the soil problem that's causing the settlement. Concrete leveling is the answer.
