Before & After Photos

Weather changes can greatly impact soil consistency which in turn impacts concrete slabs. The slabs can shrink as temperatures drop and expand when they rise. Because of this, concrete slabs should have expansion and contraction joints, if they don't a phenomenon called "Street Creep" can occur. Street Creep happens when roads lengthen over time and push your concrete. To prevent this from damaging your home, we have a solution called CompressionGuard! CompressionGuard is maintenance-free and creates a wide range of motion for concrete to shift throughout the seasons. 

Linda and Duane are rental owners in Topeka, KS, and were interested in repairing the concrete on the back patio. System Design Specialist Tom Studer went out to their home. During the inspection, Tom saw that water had gotten underneath the slab and washed out the soil, leaving a void underneath the slab. We used PolyLevel to raise and stabilize the back porch. Linda and Duane are very excited to see that the back patio is now level. 

Bernice has severe cracking and shifting with her concrete slabs in her driveway. There were signs of pitting and flaking from moisture-absorbing into the surface of the concrete as well. Both Bernice and her neighbors were reaching out to various contractors about their concrete, she chose Thrasher due to their reputation. 

For this project, her concrete was lifted using PolyLevel foam. After PolyLevel was used to stabilize the concrete, NexusPro was used to seal all the joints and cracks. After Bernice's initial proposal, a TV advertisement was run in her area, for SealantPro to be included for free with concrete repair. She reached out to our Design Specialist, Bobby Bartow, to see if she could use this discount. Bobby was able to rework Bernice's proposal and get her SealantPro for no additional cost. SealantPro is used to help prevent pitting and flaking of her concrete. Through this 3-part system, Bernice can rest easy about her concrete not causing any further issues. 

Charles is a homeowner in Topeka, KS, who wanted to preserve and protect his driveway. System Design Specialist Tyler Lothrop went out to Charles’s home, there was some minor settlement and water intrusion underneath the concrete. The crews used PolyLevel, NexusPro Joint Sealant, and SealantPro. We were able to level, seal the cracks and protect the concrete. Charles was impressed by Ian and the crew. 

Concrete cracks typically appear when the ground underneath settles. Weak soils below the concrete almost always cause the settlement of the slab. Our PolyLevel foam is the perfect solution to give the ground the support it needs and ensure it won't happen again!
