A resident in Middletown, New Jersey noticed that their concrete stairs had been sinking. This occurrence can happen because of erosion of soil under the slab. As water runs through the cracks and joints in the concrete, it washes the soil out. These voids cause the concrete to shift and settle, which in turn create uneven surfaces and tripping hazards.
The homeowner called Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Jeff Pitek, helped them with a solution. Our Quality 1st Basement System foreman injected PolyLevel Injection System, which is a system that permanently lifts and stabilizes the sinking concrete. This is done by drilling small, penny-sized holes into the slab, and then injecting the polymer foam into the void. The slab is then lifted back into place, and the homeowner does not need to worry about dangerous tripping hazards.
Quality 1st Basement Systems used the Polylevel Injection to lift and level this sinking concrete walkway in Middletown, NJ. Polylevel is a durable and permanent solution for concrete repair. It's waterproof, preventing your concrete from sinking in the future.
Before and after sinking concrete in Middletown, NJ. We used our PolyLevel Injections to bring the concrete back to a raised position. Look at the difference! This entire area was sinking and settling due to the soil underneath the slab. When soil becomes either too wet, dry or is poorly compacted it causes to the soil to become weak and can no longer support the weight of the slab. PolyLevel fills the voids between the soil and the slab, raising it back towards its original level.

A homeowner in Middletown, NJ, had been experiencing a sinking driveway for years. Because the slabs were uneven, water would pool in specific areas, creating erosion underneath. We sent a Concrete Repair Specialist, Joe, out to inspect the driveway and provide them with a solution. He recommended a polylevel lift and leveling the area since the concrete slabs were in good condition and there was no significant cracking or crumbling. Instead of paying to remove and repour this entire driveway, our Concrete team was able to lift, level and stabilize this area and restore this homeowner's peace of mind.
