Repair Tilted Stoops and Sinking Patios

PolyLevel restores concrete steps

Many concrete structures, like porch stoops and patios, cannot carry heavy loads and are built without footings. Poor soil conditions or the original contractor's failure to prepare the site with compacted gravel can cause sinking, which is often worsened by poor drainage.

A sloped stoop or patio lowers a home's curb appeal and creates tripping hazards, especially during icy weather. And, if it slopes toward the house, rainwater is directed against the foundation, causing basement leaks and other related issues.

PolyLevel® dealers repair sloped stoops or patios to prevent these issues and save your home from damage. Contact your local dealer and schedule a free estimate!

Permanently repair uneven patios and stoops

Conventional repairs, such as mudjacking, may be used to lift the structure to level (or to slope it slightly for proper drainage) but tend not to be permanent fixes. Injecting more heavy cement beneath a sinking stoop or patio will simply add unwanted weight. Within a few months or years sinking is likely to continue.

Methods that involve excavation, such as demolition and replacement or the use of piers to jack concrete back into place will work, but at a high cost and with significant property disruption. In the case of a stoop, you may not be able to use your front door for several days. Also, don't plan on having a party on your patio while the mason's crew is trampling your lawn and gardens.

PolyLevel is a non-invasive and long-lasting solution. Unlike mudjacking or replacement, it weighs less, cures quickly, and isn't disruptive. So, you get back to using the space fast with no mess or downtime.
