Concrete Lifting and Leveling Before & After Photos

This existing sidewalk along a busy road in Florence, KY didn't really match the newly paved and painted road it was adjacent to. The sidewalk had cracks up and down the street because the soil the sidewalk was resting on was shriveling up. The shriveled up soil created space for part of the sidewalk to fall into, creating cracks that could be considered a tripping hazard for the public. After receiving multiple offers and bids for the job, the City of Florence decided they wanted us to do the job because of our foam jacking method. Our PolyLevel foam is a better alternative to mudjacking because it is way cleaner and faster. After we carefully injected the slabs with our patented foam, we were able to get the sidewalk leveled out, eliminating the tripping hazards. After only a couple of hours, the sidewalk was back upon to the public. 

The gap seen in the before picture between the 1st and 2nd step was an issue for this homeowner, and they wanted it fixed. You see, a gap like this usually means that there is some settling occurring under your concrete slabs. If the settling is too extreme and reaches a certain threshold, your slabs could crack from imbalanced support. The gap seen in the pictures can also invite rain water under your slabs, further accelerating the settling process.

We fixed all these problems by:

1. Leveling the slabs by raising parts with PolyLevel foam injections.

2. Sealing the gaps and cracks with our concrete sealant.  

This homeowner wanted to change the appearance of their home from the outside, specifically from the front of their home. After weighing their options, they decided that they wanted to redo their sidewalk. After looking on the internet for different options, they decided they didn't want to replace it completely. They thought it could be saved if they chose the right company to jack it up and level it out. After googling reviews for the right company, they decided they wanted us to do it. Not only did it seem like we had the right methods, it seemed like we had the right personnel. After we leveled their whole sidewalk with our PolyLevel foam, we then sealed the cracks and gaps with our NexusPro caulking. The homeowners were extremely happy and even had money left over to change their garden bed from mulch to gravel.  

Whenever the owner of this home had to take the sidewalk to reach their walk out basement, they would often lose balance. The sidewalk and stairs had tilted away from the home, leaving them unlevel. They tilted away from the home because the soil on the hillside had washed down and away from the home over time. In order to make the stairs and sidewalk level again, we injected our polyurethane foam under the side that sunk down. Through this process, we were able to level everything out and seal all the gaps. The homeowner can now travel down the stairs safely again.
