Concrete Leveling Before & After Photos

The living room addition floor of this Marcellus, MI home had started to slope downwards (as seen in the before photo). After lifting up the carpet to get a better understanding of the situation, the owners saw that the floor was both sinking and cracked. Lucky for them, concrete lifting is just another one of Ayers Basement Systems’ specialties.

To raise the floor, the crew pumped PolyLevel - an expanding polymer used to fill in the gaps where soil has settled - below the slab. While PolyLevel is usually used to lift concrete slabs and sidewalks, this addition’s floor was also poured concrete, so raising the floor wouldn’t affect the house’s foundation. The after photo shows the multiple different holes where the injections were made. Now, the owners can rest in this living room without fear of sinking away. 

A customer's concrete driveway needed lifted so he called our team. We installed PolyLevel, a system designed to fix concrete slabs that have sunk by using a new product to lift the concrete slabs back to their original level. The new product used is a polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density in order to raise the concrete. The process is quite simple and is done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes. Also, the PolyLevel system is waterproof and long-lasting.

Our customer was fed up with their sinking driveway. It was not only ugly, but it was a safety hazard for her family. We used PolyLevel to raise their driveway back to its original position. 

PolyLevel is a state of the art material used to repair sinking concrete. It requires less holes, is lightweight, waterproof, and has a quick cure time. You can drive over it 15 minutes after installation!

These Allegan homeowners noticed that their front porch was settling and the first step was cracked. The steps were settling so much that there was a gap in between the siding and the steps to the porch. We installed PolyLevel to keep the home from damage. PolyLevel is a very light but strong injectable foam. It is waterproof and stable so it won't wash away or react with soils. The best part is that the cure time is only 15 minutes!

We were initially called out to this home to deal with sinking porch steps. But upon inspection we found many areas around the property that could benefit from PolyLevel injection. PolyLevel's patented polymer combination allows for a quick and thorough lifting process and a quick cure time, which means it's weight bearing again in as little as an hour.

One of the areas on the property that we fixed was the sidewalk; one slab was sinking, which created not only an eyesore, but a dangerous trip hazard.
