PolyLevel Contractors in District of Columbia

Conditions where outdoor concrete has already begun to sink is not uncommon in District of Columbia and is often the result of shifting, a weak soil base or erosion. It causes driveways, sidewalks, walkways, concrete steps or patio areas to become tripping hazards and can affect property value.

District of Columbia soil has a variety of soil types, ranging in density and load-bearing capacities. When the weight above the soil exceeds the soil below, the soil will compact and settle. Clay and silt can also cause soil to compact when it becomes dry. Regardless of the reason, once soil becomes compact, heavy concrete above the soil will sink and crack. It's a gravity thing!

While it is a very noticeable problem, with the right contractor, it can have a very simple solution.

Previously, sinking concrete was repaired by a technique called "mud jacking" that uses a thick slurry to fill in the gap underneath the sunken concrete. While effective, it is not the most efficient way to solve the problem, and adds more weight above the compacting soil.

Today, select contractors in District of Columbia are professionally trained to provide a better alternative to mud jacking. PolyLevel is a less intrusive, lighter weight solution that doesn't add more weight to the problem.

    Had Bruce out to do an estimate. He gave us an honest assessment of the situation that no work was necessary. This was after a competitor used scare tactics to try to sell an 18,000$ solution. Highly recommend getting a second opinion (or first!) from NV before deciding on who will do your work. Very courteous and friendly as well.

    A minor delay on the start day proved not to be a problem as the NV Waterproofing crew worked until 8:00 to ensure that the project stayed on schedule. Dust and debris from jack-hammering was far less than anticipated. In short, it was a satisfying experience to have a contractor that put so much attention into customer satisfaction. I cannot find fault worth mentioning without sounding picky from the start to final clean-up of the work site.

    NV Waterproofing and their crew (Casey, Crew, Kevin, and Grant) were very professional from start to finish, they informed me in the beginning exactly what they were going to do and performed every step with great attention to detail and were very courteous and clean. As a general contractor I would highly recommend them and will continue to use their services for future work.
