When the entrance to a home is a concrete slab, it's crucial that the surface is even and level. This homeowner in Derry, NH was concerned with how his front porch area was settling and becoming uneven. It had become a dangerous trip hazard. The concrete itself was not in terrible condition, other than being uneven, and so he was looking for options to lift and level the slab without having to remove and replace.

It was the ideal solution that did not require and demolition and successfully lifted the sunken concrete back to a level position by filling the void beneath the concrete for the homeowner.

A residential building owner noticed concrete sinking along pathways on the property. These tripping hazards caused concern for the owner. Looking to level and stabilize the concrete, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.
Our Design Specialist, Kenneth Calabrese, recommended installing PolyLevel concrete leveling and NexusPro joint repair. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that fills voids underneath the concrete, almost instantly lifting and leveling it. This permanent solution is much quicker and cost effective compared to mudjacking or replacing the concrete. After PolyLevel lifted the concrete, NexusPro was used to seal the joints between the concrete. NexusPro stops water from infultrating the soil underneath the concrete, preventing concrete cracks or becoming uneven. It is resistant to UV rays to prevent the sealant from cracking, foaming, or drying.
With the concrete level and stabilized, the tripping hazards were eliminated. Along with a much more attractive look, this property owner has peace of mind that the walkways will remain safe.
