Alarming Amount of Sinking on Front Steps in Brampton, ON

In Brampton, Ontario, this home's front steps had started to sink over time, making it very hard to navigate for the homeowners. They happened to be elderly, and with the amount of sinking occurring, the steps into the home were almost unusable. They wanted to lift and support their concrete without having to remove them, so they found Canadian Concrete Leveling. Our team of experts specializes in raising and levelling concrete, and this home in Brampton is something we have seen before. Our Project Manager, Danny Dos Santos, went to the home for a further look. He had noticed that the steps were sloping toward the concrete, which is excellent for water running off, but during the winter, when it all freezes, these stairs will become a slippery slide. Another thing that he noted on his walkthrough was that when the steps were sinking, it opened up the gap underneath, which can be very dangerous in the long run, as water can impede and result in more sinking or collapse of the rest of the steps. Danny ensured the homeowners that they were in good hands by showing them our PolyLevel® Injection System. This high-density polyurethane is able to fill any void underneath the concrete and push it back up to its original height with ease. Once the polyurethane transforms from liquid to solid, nothing pushes it back down. The homeowners were relieved by the news that their walkways would be saved and said, "Let's do it!" with a big grin. Our Installation Specialists went to work to save this home. They started off by drilling small dime-sized holes into the points of concern. From there, Russell hammered in injection caps to hold our system in place when levelling. The duo began the levelling process, and you can see the concrete level itself in front of your eyes. From uneven and hazardous to a transformed level walkway, the results were amazing.
