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.
Notice in the before photo how the uneven concrete posed a tripping hazard and affected property value in this Muscatine, IA home. To resolve this, our team at MidAmerica Basement Systems used our PolyLevel system to lift and level the slabs efficiently. This innovative solution provided the necessary stability while minimizing disruption. Additionally, our NexusPro Joint Sealant added protection against water, ensuring long-lasting durability. As showcased in the after photo, the concrete is now safe, boosting the home's value and providing peace and mind to the homeowner.
Shawn was noticing that every time he would drive his car in and out of his garage, there was quite a bump. He contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the driveway brought back to level. Bryan had evaluated the situation and offered the solution of PolyLevel. PolyLevel uses high-density polymers that fill voids that have been created, which cause the concrete to sink. Once the voids are filled, the polymers expand, lifting and leveling the slabs. Thanks to PolyLevel from MidAmerica Basement Systems, Shawn now have a smooth transition between his driveway and garage.
