This home had nasty tripping hazards on the sidewalk alongside the house. The homeowners wanted to repair this to maintain the property value of the house.
We used PolyLevel to lift and level the sidewalk concrete and NexusPro to seal all the joints and cracks after lifting. It was a difficult lift on the sidewalk and it turned out great.
Saving money in the long run and preventing further damage was this homeowners reasoning for calling us. She had struggled with her driveway pitting and flaking for years, and she didn't want this problem to keep getting worse. After having checked on our review and checking our status with the Better Business Bureau, she knew that we would be a great fit for her home's needs.
Our System Design Specialist Nick Tiberghien arrived at her home to discuss her driveway problems and take a deeper look into what was causing the problems. Upon inspection, Nick found that there were a few different problems with the driveway. The first problem was that the pitting and flaking of the driveway was causing a look of deteriorating or falling apart, when in fact the concrete was still structured well. The next problem Nick discovered was that there was a portion of concrete that sunk a couple of inches due to water washing to soil out from underneath the concrete. This issue was difficult because it meant that the concrete would need to be lifted before it could be protected.
Nick discussed options to fix these problems which include lifting and sealing the surface of the concrete. The homeowner liked these solutions very much, so she scheduled an installation appointment for the next week. The installation crew that came out to her home got to work quickly by first lifting the sunken concrete slab using PolyLevel foam. After that, the crew power-washed the entire surface of the concrete to ensure that nothing would break the sealant they wanted to use. Finally, after the driveway was leveled and cleaned, the crew used SealantPro to seal the entire surface of the driveway to protect it from further pitting or flaking.
The homeowner was extremely happy with the results. She said that the driveway looks so much cleaner than when we started with her, and she was very thankful that her concrete was protected. Check out the huge concrete transformation!
Imagine a pretty neighborhood with well-maintained houses, but your driveway stood out with ugly cracks. this is what happened to our customer. She tried fixing it herself with store-bought stuff, but it didn't last. It bothered her for years, and she wanted a real solution.
There were other problems too, like water pooling in some spots and a crack in the foundation from the gutter. Joanne found Thrasher online and decided to give us a chance. We explained why the cracks happened and offered a solution just for her. Then our team got to work making the repairs, which only took a day. We fixed the concrete, got rid of the cracks, and sealed everything up. We even buried the downspouts to prevent more cracks.
When we were done, Joanne's driveway looked amazing. She was so relieved that she didn't have to worry about the cracks anymore and her home looked great!
Jeff in Springfield, MO wanted to repair the concrete in front of the garage. There had been some significant settlement and it created a large tripping hazard. He started doing some online research for concrete repair and was impressed by our work.
Our crew went out to Jeff’s home and was able to see that the driveway had a lot of cracking and was settling quite a bit. We lifted the concrete with PolyLevel and then closed the cracks and joints with NexusPro Crack Repair. Jeff was thrilled to never worry about tripping again!
This customer moved into his home 20 years ago and plans on passing it down to his son eventually. His garage and driveaway concrete is unlevel and just wants his peace of mind restored. This sunken slab was created from soil washout. To lift and level the driveway to be even with the garage, we used out PolyLevel expanding foam!
