Concrete Leveling and Repair in Des Moines, IA
The concrete at this home had settled and there was one crack and a tripping hazard. The owner does not want to have to worry about the mailman/woman or anyone else walking up to her front door and tripping over the crack in her sidewalk. She stated, "I know it's there and I trip over it. I don't want someone walking up to my door and getting hurt because of my sidewalk."
We used Polylevel to raise the sidewalk and make it an even walking surface. We then sealed the cracks and control joints with NexusPro to further protect the concrete.
Driveway Crack Repair and Prevention in Des Moines, IA
This customer hated the way her driveway looked and she didn't want it to get worse. We noted her concrete was cracking due to street creep. To address this issue, we used polylevel foam to lift the driveway back into its proper position and applied nexus pro to fill and seal the cracks. To prevent future damage from street creep, we added Compression Guard to the driveway. This will help ensure that the driveway remains level and crack-free for years to come.
From Sinking to Supported
The soil goes through changes. When it rains, the soil soaks up water and expands. But when it's dry, it shrinks. This shrinkage makes gaps in the ground. So, the heavy concrete on top doesn't have enough support, and that leads to cracks and sinking into those gaps.
This can be a big problem, especially in busy places like a patio where people can trip. The good news is, we have a solution! We inject a structural foam under the concrete to fill those gaps and give the concrete the support it needs.
Leveled Concrete in Pleasant Hill, IA
We met with a family in Pleasant Hill that was concerned with unlevel concrete in their driveway. They didn't want anybody to trip over it. Our System Design Specialist went out to the home and gave them a free quote. They decided to go through with the work and we made an appointment to come out and fix their driveway.
When our production team got to their home, we began the process of fixing their driveway by first drilling a tiny hole where the high density polymer would be injected. This high density polymer, PolyLevel, is what is used to raise the slabs. The outcome was great; their driveway is now level!
