The home was ready to go on the market but the front porch needed a little attention first.
The corner at the front door had sank 2 inches.
PolyLevel was the perfect solution to lift this concrete porch slab.
NexusPro Joint Sealant was used for clean lines and to seal joints preventing any water from getting behind or under the porch causing any additional concerns.
These homeowners in Baxter Tennessee were having some problems with their front porch and it separating from their home. Concerned they reached out to Frontier Basement Systems for a solution. Frontier sent a design specialist to their home to diagnose their concerns. This separation was due to settlement and it was decided with the homeowner’s that PolyLevel injections were the right solution for this home. What stunning results!
This Nashville homeowner noticed the concrete sidewalk outside of his home sinking more and more every year. It was a huge tripping hazard that he did not want to worry about anymore, so he decided to find a company that could lift and seal it once and for all.. and for a good price!
After our inspector came to look over the sinking slab and discussed our trusted solutions, our very experienced foreman came to repair the sidewalk!
We used PolyLevel to lift the slab up and used NexusPro Joint Sealant to seal the cracks so water would not infiltrate the slab!
Details about our products:
PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface.
NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry. It fits into homeowners' busy lifestyles, too - drying time is a fraction of that needed for other urethane-based caulking products.
This homeowner now has a peace of mind and lifted concrete slab!
Most concrete problems are caused by poor soil. Soil can soften due to excessive moisture, shrink due to drought or become unstable because of inadequate initial compaction. These situations cause voids to form, which in turn allows the heavy concrete above to sink and become uneven. As concrete slabs sink, they can crack and break, creating jagged, raised edges that are not only an eyesore but also potentially dangerous.
Our team used PolyLevel to lift the sunken slab and NexusPro to seal the crack.
A large porch is a staple in the South. where tons of heart to hearts and memories are made. In Cookeville this large patio porch had began to sink and needed a lift.
