Before & After Photos

The foundation of the residential property in Gilbert, Arizona, displayed clear signs of stem wall failure. The homeowner noticed horizontal cracks along the outside foundation walls, indicating potential internal damage. These cracks, initially small, began to expand due to oxidizing rebar inside the concrete. This process not only weakened the structure but also threatened to cause further splitting and spalling if not addressed promptly.

The homeowner consulted with Amanda, our Customer Care Representative, who promptly scheduled a thorough on-site inspection. Eli, our Design Specialist, evaluated the foundation and confirmed that traditional stem wall repair methods, such as patching, epoxy injections, or standard rebar replacement, would not provide a long-term solution. These common repair methods often fail because the underlying issue of oxidation is not effectively addressed, leading to recurrent damage.

A homeowner in Gilbert, Arizona, was experiencing difficulties with their driveway, which had become uneven due to soil settlement beneath the concrete slabs. The sinking driveway created a noticeable drop between sections, making it challenging to park and causing a tripping hazard when walking to the front entrance.

The homeowner contacted Amanda, our Customer Care Representative, who arranged for a site evaluation with Eli, our experienced Design Specialist. During the assessment, Eli identified that the soil beneath the driveway had compacted over time, likely due to Arizona’s dry climate and occasional heavy rains, which can cause soil erosion and settlement. To address the issue, Eli recommended our PolyLevel® Injection Foam solution, which is designed to lift and stabilize settled concrete quickly and effectively.

Amanda coordinated with the homeowner to schedule the project at a convenient time, ensuring that the driveway would be restored with minimal disruption. Juan, our project foreman, prepared his team for the repair, ensuring that the PolyLevel® solution would be applied accurately for a long-lasting result.

After Project Description:

Following the application of PolyLevel® Injection Foam, the driveway in Gilbert is now level, safe, and structurally sound. The repair, led by foreman Juan and his skilled team, restored the driveway’s functionality and eliminated the tripping hazards. By injecting the PolyLevel® foam beneath the settled slabs, the team lifted the concrete back to its original position, all while minimizing any disruption to the surrounding area.

The PolyLevel® solution offered several advantages. It cured quickly, allowing the homeowner to use the driveway just 30 minutes after application. Its lightweight composition ensured the foam wouldn’t add excess weight to the soil, reducing the chance of future settlement. Additionally, PolyLevel®’s waterproof properties make it resistant to Arizona’s dry and sometimes rainy conditions, which can often lead to soil erosion.

The homeowner expressed satisfaction with the swift and noninvasive repair process, and Amanda followed up to confirm their overall experience. Eli provided guidance on how to care for the restored driveway and suggested periodic inspections to ensure ongoing stability. Thanks to PolyLevel®, the driveway in Gilbert is once again functional, smooth, and ready to withstand the elements for years to come.
