Before & After Photos

Recently, a concerned homeowner in Long Branch, NJ contacted us after noticing that several concrete slabs around their backyard pool deck had begun to sink and shift. The uneven surface not only detracted from the beauty of their outdoor space but also posed a growing safety risk for anyone walking near the pool.

Understanding the urgency of the situation, our team conducted a thorough inspection and quickly identified the underlying cause: soil settlement and erosion beneath the slabs. Based on our findings, we developed a tailored repair plan that would provide both immediate stabilization and long-term protection.

To lift and level the sunken concrete, we utilized our high-performance PolyLevel Foam Injection system. This minimally invasive method allowed us to inject expanding polyurethane foam beneath the affected slabs, filling voids and raising the concrete back to its original position with precision. Once leveled, we sealed the joints and cracks using NexusPro, our UV-resistant and flexible joint sealant, to prevent future water intrusion and soil washout. The project was completed efficiently and cleanly, restoring the pool deck’s safety, appearance, and durability, ultimately giving the homeowner confidence that their outdoor space was both beautiful and built to last!

Sunken concrete near the front entryway of a Bronx, NY home had begun to raise safety concerns and detract from the property's overall curb appeal. The homeowner, worried about tripping hazards and further structural damage, contacted Quality 1st for a lasting solution.

After conducting a thorough inspection, our concrete repair specialist identified the cause of the settlement and recommended PolyLevel Foam Injections, a fast, effective, and non-invasive method to restore stability and level the walkway without the mess of total concrete replacement.

To begin the repair, our crew drilled small, precise injection ports into the affected sidewalk slabs. Through these ports, we injected PolyLevel, a lightweight, high-density polyurethane foam that expands beneath the surface to fill voids and gently lift the concrete back to its original position. Once leveled, the surface was stabilized and gaps were sealed, leaving the walkway smooth, safe, and visually refreshed. The transformation was immediate, resolving the homeowner’s concerns and significantly improving the safety and appearance of their entryway. With PolyLevel in place, they now have peace of mind knowing their concrete is protected against future settling!

They called Quality 1st Basement Systems and we repaired the issue with our PolyLevel Injections. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that is injected directly underneath the slab. PolyLevel has expanding properties that allow the concrete to be brought to a raised position. When the job was complete, the homeowner was happy to see their driveway was raised and level.
