Canadian Concrete Leveling Before & After Photos

Our customer's concrete had settled so much causing the stairs to separate. They were worried that this would be a significant safety concern. To lift and stabilize the sinking concrete, our team injected Polyurethane that expands and compresses loose soils. The steps are back at their original height and no longer pose a tripping hazard.

This walkway on the side of our customer’s home posed a significant tripping hazard. Also, the concrete had sloped towards the foundation which could cause water to pool damaging the house. Luckily, Canadian Concrete Leveling had the perfect solution for the settled and sinking concrete. Polyurethane was injected to lift and stabilize the customer's walkway. The transformation is incredible!  

This home in Oakville, ON, had a front walkway that had become a big tripping hazard. The final portion toward the staircase had started to sink, making the step up onto the first step much more prominent than usual. The hazard was added on rainy and cold days as water would pool up and then freeze, making not only a tripping hazard but a slipping one. The concrete was in great condition and did not need to be replaced, so the homeowners were finding a solution that would be cost-effective yet level the walkway back to its original height; that was when they found Canadian Concrete Leveling. Our Project Manager, Danny Dos Santos, came to the home upon our company's free estimate. He discovered that if the homeowners were to leave the concrete the way it was, water would eat away at the support underneath the staircase, causing more damage. The materials Danny recommended were our PolyLevel® injection system to lift the concrete back up and then our NexusPro® sealant that will seal the joints and protect the underneath from any elements. After everything was mapped out and finalized, our installation Foreman, Bill McKeown, and Specialist, Mikk, arrived. Our system is not only cost-effective, but it is quick curing, minimally invasive, and permanent. The duo began drilling small dime-sized holes into the base of the steps where the injections would occur. From there, Mikk hammered in injection ports that would hold our system when levelling. The levelling process was simple since the polyurethane being pumped underneath can lift and cure with any weight applied. After all the points were levelled, it was time to seal the injection holes with grout for a seamless look once everything is done. Now it is time to fill the joints with our NexusPro®. The difference with Nexus and competing brands is that this sealant does not dry out, crack, is malleable, and is colour-matched for a perfect finish. The results were terrific; take a look for yourself!

A home in Oakville, Ontario, had problems at the side of the home. There was a section at the side of the house, apart of the pool deck that had sunk 1.5” causing a trip hazard with the adjacent slabs.

The customer called Clarke Basement Systems and spoke to John DiNicolantonio, the Project Lead, who explained everything that would be done. The Canadian Concrete Leveling Foreman , Billy McKeown, drilled small, dime sized holes through the concrete and injected our PolyLevel Foam underneath the slabs. The foam followed the path of least resistance underneath the concrete to fill all of the voids and then expanded. We were able to use the expansion of the foam to lift the walkway to protect them from further settlement and eliminate trip hazards.

A home in Oakville, Ontario, had problems at the at the front of the home. The front step had sunk about 1.5” causing a large trip hazard with the patio. The drop made the step up to the patio larger than regulation and was an eyesore. The customer had bad knees and would struggle to get up the step. The customer was also dissatisfied with the aesthetics of the gap and wanted to get it fixed.

Our expanding foam is compress the substrate and lift the concrete to ensure the area is protected from further settlement. We were able to use the expansion of the foam to lift the walkway to protect them from further settlement and eliminate trip hazards. The customer was satisfied that we could correct the sunken concrete without having to rip and replace the current steps.
