Concrete Settlement in Minneapolis, MN Lifted

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was concerned that his sinking concrete walkway had gotten to the point where it was a trip hazard for friends and family. wanting to address the issue, the homeowner began searching for concrete contractors in Minneapolis, MN, and found us. After looking over our website and becoming impressed by our reviews and walkway transformations, the homeowner contacted us to schedule her FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Gary confirmed with the homeowner that the cause of their sunken concrete slabs is soil washout. Soil washout is the process in which water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soil. Over time, gaps and voids are created, and the slabs sink. To effectively fix this issue, Gary recommended PolyLevel, our modern solution that prevents homeowners from going through the troubles of mudjacking or slab replacement. PolyLevel is made of a polyurethane foam that expands once injected beneath concrete slabs, allowing for accurate lifting. Along with PolyLevel, Gary also recommended NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant to repair cracks and seal the joints. The homeowner happily agreed to Gary's recommendations and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. The crew began drilling small holes into the slabs. Then, PolyLevel is injected, filling in the voids in the soil and causing the slabs to lift. Once lifted to the desired height, the crew seals the holes. Next, they move on to installing NexusPro to repair cracks that have formed and to seal the joints.
