Sunken Sidewalk and Steps Leveled in Oelwein, IA
Challenge
A homeowner in Oelwein, IA, noticed their walkway was sinking significantly. Uncertain of the cause, the homeowner looked into "concrete walkway repair". One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist.
Solution
Once the Design Specialist arrived, they began the thorough inspection of the concrete. During the inspection, the Design Specialist noted that the sidewalk was sinking due to settlement. To prevent the issue from worsening, the Design Specialist recommended securing PolyLevel below the sunken slabs. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with the Design Specialist to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, the Foreman began by inserting PolyLevel below the settling slabs. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam injection solution that lifts and levels damaged concrete. Once the PolyLevel was inserted, the crew shifted to repairing the joints and cracks with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. After both products were secured, the crew shifted to cleaning up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew.
