This Tennessee homeowner had noticed cracks appearing on her driveway a few years ago. As the years passed, she noticed it getting worse and worse. Her porch steps were also sinking and causing a major tripping hazard. She realized it was about time to get her problems fixed! She took advantage of our free estimates and inspections deal and called right away.
Our inspector came to her home and investigated the cracks and sinking steps. He knew exactly what needed to be done and told the homeowner all about our products that would give her a lasting solution!
The product we use for sealing cracks is the NexusPro Sealant.
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.
The product we use for lifting sunken slabs/porches/steps/etc. is the PolyLevel injector foam.
Not only does it lift slabs, but it also strengthens and stabilizes loose soil.
Cracks and sinking slabs can happen for multiple reasons, such as erosion, flooding, or the soil just not being properly prepared for it.. either way, it won't go away by itself and causes a huge eyesore on a once beautiful home.
This homeowner is very happy with our solution and is glad to not have to worry about her problems worsening.

This concrete sidewalk had shifted quite a bit back and forth. In this photo, you can see that it had moved away from the steps, causing an inch and a half gap. As the years went by water infiltrated it more and the shifting got worse and cracks even appeared down the driveway. These things tend to happen when concrete is not poured over prepared soil, and even from erosion or flooding. No matter what the cracking and shifting resulted from, these homeowners were ready to have it fixed. It not only caused an eyesore, but it also created a tripping hazard. Thankfully, they called us and our amazing foreman, Eric, got to work on it!
Products Installed:
PolyLevel- This is done by boring small (penny-sized) holes in the slab and using specially designed equipment to inject a structural-grade polymer into the void. After the void is filled, the expanding properties of the polyurethane foam allows for an accurate lift and leveling of the slab. Finally, the small holes are grouted and sealed, and the slab is completely restored.
NexusPro Sealant- 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.

These homeowners in Hendersonville Tennessee were having problems with their front steps and sinking. Concerned they reached out to Frontier Basement Systems for a solution. Frontier sent a design specialist to their home and together it was decided that PolyLevel injections were the right solution for this home. Beautiful results!
When this Kentucky family bought their home it had already had cracks in the walls and a sinking porch. They had noticed the porch was getting worse and was causing water to leak into their crawl space. They had tried to fix the problem themselves with the caulk joint, but it only cracked and withered away in the heat. They had been looking in a local home & garden magazine when they came across us. They called immediately and we had an inspector meet with them.
Our solution was to lift the porch to the correct height using PolyLevel injection and seal the cracks with NexusPro Sealant. NexusPro Sealant is different than regular caulk because it is polyurethane-based and UV ray resistant. So you won't have to worry about bubbling or cracking! It will stay looking fresh and clean!
