Emergancy Highway Repair to I-64 in O'Fallon, IL
Recently Woods Basement Systems partnered with IDOT crews to repair two lanes of highway on I-64 in O'Fallon, IL. In this photo you can see that the two closest lanes had already received patch repairs in the past. Unfortunately those patches did not solve the underlying problem that was causing the lanes to be uneven and therefore unsafe.

Here you can see the repairs already underway. The Woods Foundation Support Works crew utilized PolyLEVEL foam to level out the concrete slabs that make up this Illinois Highway. Our crews drill into the existing concrete in a grid pattern so that they can then inject PolyLEVEL Foam which will raise the sagging slabs.

The PolyLEVEL foam is a much better solution for highway repair than the normal excavation and replacement which takes much longer to fully install and cure. Installation of the PolyLEVEL foam can be completed in one day and safe, normal traffic flow can resume almost immediately after completion of the installation. This not only severely decreases the amount of down time for the highway but the cost of this product is dramatically less than replacing the concrete!
