Sinking Concrete Walkway Lifted in Fargo, ND
Challenge
In Fargo, ND, a homeowner noticed that his walkway had begun sinking, causing a trip hazard to form in some areas. Concerned for his family, he decided to search for "concrete repairs in Fargo, ND" and found us. After browsing our website, the homeowner was incredibly impressed by our before-and-after transformations, and he decided to contact us to schedule his FREE estimate.
Solution
In less than a week, one of our Design Specialists arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection. During the inspection, our Design Specialist noticed signs of soil washout. He explained to the homeowner that soil washout is the process in which water moves through the ground and washes away the supporting soils, keeping the concrete slabs upright. Over time, this process creates voids in the soil, and the slab would begin to sink. To fix this issue, our Design Specialist recommended PolyLevel, our waterproof foam expanding formula that accurately lifts settled slabs. The homeowner did not want to go through the troubles of mudjacking or slab replacement, so he knew that PolyLevel was the best choice for this concrete. He contacted us to move forward with the project.
In about a month, our Foreman, Charlie C., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew began by drilling small holes along the concrete slabs. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, filling in the voids in the soil and lifting the concrete. Once the slabs have been lifted to the desired height, the crew seals the holes. After they were done with the installation, the crew cleaned up their workspace, equipment, and left the home.
