Before & After Photos

Sunken concrete near the front entryway of a Bronx, NY home had begun to raise safety concerns and detract from the property's overall curb appeal. The homeowner, worried about tripping hazards and further structural damage, contacted Quality 1st for a lasting solution.

After conducting a thorough inspection, our concrete repair specialist identified the cause of the settlement and recommended PolyLevel Foam Injections, a fast, effective, and non-invasive method to restore stability and level the walkway without the mess of total concrete replacement.

To begin the repair, our crew drilled small, precise injection ports into the affected sidewalk slabs. Through these ports, we injected PolyLevel, a lightweight, high-density polyurethane foam that expands beneath the surface to fill voids and gently lift the concrete back to its original position. Once leveled, the surface was stabilized and gaps were sealed, leaving the walkway smooth, safe, and visually refreshed. The transformation was immediate, resolving the homeowner’s concerns and significantly improving the safety and appearance of their entryway. With PolyLevel in place, they now have peace of mind knowing their concrete is protected against future settling!

This homeowner in Whitestone, New York noticed their driveway was sinking and causing them to trip and injure themselves. A driveway should provide safety, not dangerous tripping hazards! They called Quality 1st Basement Systems and we repaired the issue with our PolyLevel Injections. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that is injected directly underneath the slab. PolyLevel has expanding properties that allow the concrete to be brought to a raised position. When the job was complete, the homeowner was happy to see their driveway was raised and level. 

This concrete patio area in front of this New York home was sinking and settling. The homeowner did not want to replace the front patio area for the replacement process was costly and time consuming. They wanted an immediate fix to this concrete area. 

System Design Specialist, Jay H., did a full inspection, took measurements and provided her with a free estimate for a permanent solution, PolyLevel. PolyLevel is injected underneath the slab to raise it back to level. Once leveled, the foam hardens to prevent future settlement.
