Foundation Repair Photo Album: Settling Foundation and Sinking Sidewalk Repaired in Poplar Bluff, MO
A foundation was settling in Poplar Bluff, MO, causing large cracks to appear. the sidewalk nearby was also sinking, causing it to become uneven. To solve the foundation issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, and in many cases, lift it back toward its original position. These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown. There is minimal disturbance from installation, and installing them is a quick process.
To solve the sidewalk problem, 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!
