Sinking Step Lifted in Maple Grove, MN

A homeowner in Maple Grove, MN, noticed that the front steps of his porch had begun sinking and was concerned for its stability. Because the issue is at the entrance of his home, he decided to fix the problem immediately by searching for concrete lifting in the area. The homeowner found our website and was impressed with our 5-star reviews, so he scheduled his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Kyle P., arrived at the home to inspect the homeowner's concerns and to answer any questions. During the inspection, he informed the homeowner that one of the common causes of settling concrete is soil washout. When it rains and floods, water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soils beneath the concrete slab. As this continues, it causes gaps in the soil, and the slab would begin to sink. To fix this issue, Kyle recommended PolyLevel, our waterproof foam expanding formula that is injected beneath the settled slabs and accurately lifts them, and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant that provides flexibility and high durability so it will not crack or break to seal the joints. After reviewing Kyle's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by lifting the step slab to remove the gap beneath the step. Alongside this, they also lifted a row of the back porch. Lastly, the crew used NexusPro to seal the joints between the step and step slab as well as the back porch. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
