Tripping hazards are annoying for most people and typically come with the risk of falling. For others that deal with limited mobility, though, uneven concrete can be a much greater concern.
In Toronto, Ontario, a customer decided to call Canadian Concrete Leveling to remove the tripping hazards from his patterned concrete. His daughter uses a wheelchair, and it was becoming harder and harder to navigate over the uneven concrete.
Project Manager Paul Mendell met with the homeowner and inspected the concrete. Paul understood the importance of effectively removing any hazards, and a date was set for the repair.
Foreman Kyle McKeown worked hard leveling the patterned concrete slabs. PolyLevel® was injected in various locations to ensure an even grade, and any voids below were filled to prevent more settlement down the road.
The customer is delighted that the exterior of his home is finally safe for his daughter. He was very pleased with the speed and how fast the work cured while still achieving the intended results.
