Concrete Driveway Repair in Clear Lake, IA

A homeowner in Clear Lake, IA, was experiencing a sunken concrete driveway and knew the bumps and cracks would only continue to worsen if left untreated. The homeowner began looking for concrete lifting and leveling contractors in the area and found us. After browsing our website and growing impressed by our concrete before and after transformations, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Nate B., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Nate explained to the homeowner that soil compaction is one of the most common causes of sinking concrete slabs. When the soil's load-bearing capacity is exceeded, in this case, as cars drive over the driveway, it causes the soil to compact and settle. To fix this issue, Nate recommended PolyLevel, our foam-expanding formula that accurately lifts sunken slabs within seconds, and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant that repairs cracks and seals joints. The homeowner happily agreed to Nate's recommendation and scheduled the installation date.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. PolyLevel is installed by first drilling small 3/8" holes into the concrete slabs. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, filling in the voids in the soil. Once the slabs have been lifted to the desired level, the crew seals the holes with cement. Lastly, the crew used NexusPro to repair the cracks and seal the joints between the garage and driveway. 

Now, our customer has a smooth, crack-free, and level driveway! Are you experiencing something similar? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!
