Residential Photo Album: Several Spots of Sinking Concrete in Thornhill, Ontario
Dealing with home repairs can be frustrating. That stress becomes even worse when you don’t know who to turn to.
A customer in Thornhill, Ontario, was dealing with sinking concrete in several spots around his home. He knew it had to be dealt with to preserve his investment, but he had no idea what to do. The homeowner was trying to avoid relacing thousands of pounds worth of concrete, so he was pleasantly surprised when he found Canadian Concrete Leveling.
Project Manager Joe McColl met with the customer and inspected his home. Joe noted that washed out fill soils led to the concrete sinking, as well as the wear and tear of daily use. The client had already researched our PolyLevel® System before meeting with Joe. After the inspection, he eagerly booked a repair date.
Foremen Kyle McKeown and Mark Sealy used dime-sized holes to inject our PolyLevel® System beneath the concrete. This system lifts the slab and compresses loose fill soils below. Once the. Concrete was at an even grade the team patched the holes with fresh concrete.
The customer can breathe a sigh of relief now that his sinking concrete is repaired. He didn’t have to fork out thousands of dollars for a replacement and was happy to be using the area the same day we were there.
