Filling the Void in Vaughan, Ontario

This customer in Vaughan, Ontario, had the unlucky experience of Frost Heave ruining their front walkway. Unfortunately, frost heave is a common occurrence plaguing concrete all over the country. Rainwater and natural moisture sit in pockets underneath the concrete. Then in winter, these moisture pockets freeze and shift, over time affecting the earth around it and thus moving the concrete. The only way to prevent this is to backfill the concrete with a more robust material than soil, for example, gravel, that allows water to flow down and not sit.

The customer desperately wanted their beautiful stone footpath returned to its former glory, so thankfully, they got in touch with Project Manager Matt McCullough at Canadian Concrete Leveling for relief. After identifying the customer’s unique needs, developing a plan, and scheduling a date, our Installation Specialists got to work. Step one involves the application of our unique PolyLevel® system. It is not only exclusively designed to raise concrete in a quick, clean, and efficient way; it also secures the concrete in place to prevent any further frost heave damage. Then NexusPro® sealant, another one of our patented products, is applied to the seams and joints in the final stage of the installation process. NexusPro® has multiple different options to appeal to any customer's preference and style. In addition, our strong, proprietary sealant is designed to keep moisture from seeping down the seams and into the earth, thus further protecting the concrete from potential future heaving and shifting due to frost heave.
