Brad’s driveway had dropped roughly 6 inches from the garage's foundation, producing a large drop under the doorway. It was also creating tripping hazards from his driveway to his walkway. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have his driveway leveled. PolyLevel was offered to lift and level his concrete, eliminating the large drop and tripping hazards found on the property. PolyLevel is a polymer foam that is injected under the concrete, filling in voids, and lifting the slabs back to a level and stable state. After the PolyLevel was injected, all tripping hazards were gone, and the drop found by the garage door had been reduced to less than an inch.
Settling and cracking concrete can leave your driveway with multiple tripping hazards and an unpleasant site to see. Voids under the concrete cause the slabs to stress, making them sink and crack. Sinking and cracked concrete can be fixed with an injection technology provided by MidAmerica Basement Systems. PolyLevel uses a precise lifting and stabilizing solution to provide a safe and pleasant area. Polymers are injected under the slabs to expand and fill the voids, reducing stress while leveling them to their original position.
Homeowner Charles and Ann recently contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when they wanted to learn more about the PolyLevel options. Their driveway was sinking and had pooling water that was worrying them. PolyLevel is a foam that is pumped under the concrete slab and fills the void under the slab. The foam expands and hardens under the slab and lifts the concrete.
