Concrete Lifting and Leveling Before & After Photos

Concrete settlement is a common problem that causes other problems like trip hazards, pooling water against foundations, and unsightly cracks in concrete.  This porch in Mascoutah, Illinois had settled more than 2 inches, demonstrated by the gap between the concrete slab and the brick border.

Woods Basement Systems installed PolyLEVEL—a structural grade polymer—under the concrete slab to raise the slab back to a level position, and the difference is clear.  PolyLEVEL is injected into the void beneathe concrete slabs, fills the void, and the polyurethane's expanding properties allow for an accurate lift.

Mudjacking settling concrete slabs can get very messy.  For example, large, unsightly holes must be drilled in the concrete prior to mudjacking.  The grout being installed can spew out of the holes in the slab as it's being installed. Ultimately, mudjacking adds weight to the underlying soil, can erode or wash out, and takes days to cure.

PolyLEVEL, on the other hand, requires minimal disruption and boasts an impressively quick cure time—a concrete slab can be driven on 15 minutes after installation! This patio in Mascoutah, Illinois was able to be repaired and used by the homeowners the very same day. The material is waterproof and will never wash out. As a high-capacity, expansive polymer, PolyLEVEL can lift even heavy loads such as stoops and slab foundations.

A sidewalk was settling in Mascoutah, IL, causing the slabs to sink and become uneven. To solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. Pea-sized holes were drilled into the concrete and the foam was injected to fill the void underneath. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slab back up. This will improve the safety of the sidewalk and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A concrete sidewalk was sinking in Macoutah, IL, causing the slabs to become uneven and a tripping hazard. to solve this issue, the PolyLevel System was installed. This will stabilize, lift, and level the concrete slabs with high-strength polyurethane foam. This is a unique approach to repairing sinking concrete.  After drilling small holes into the concrete, a polymer foam is injected into the concrete slab to stabilize the surface. This installation technique allows the foam to expand as it cures, precisely lifting the slabs back up. This will improve the safety of the sidewalk and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A sidewalk in Mascoutah, IL, was sinking and unleveled. This needed to be addressed, so the homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, PolyLevel™ was used. Br drilling small holes into the concrete and injecting a polyurethane foam underneath, the foam expands to lift the concrete slabs up and level them out. This foam also hardens to become rock solid within hours. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their concrete is in great shape!
