Canadian Concrete Leveling Job Stories

These homeowners had very dangerous trip hazards around their home and were concerned about the safety of their family and friends.  Their stairs had sunk and there was a gap between the concrete slabs right in front of their home which was a major concern. They made the right decision to remove these hazards and called Canadian Concrete Leveling for the job.   Project Manager, Paul Mendell, inspected the home and established that PolyLevel® would be needed to lift and level the concrete in order to get rid of the trip hazards. Once the plan was in place, Installation Foreman, Bill McKeown, and his production team went to the home to execute the job. They injected PolyLevel® underneath the stairs and concrete slabs in order to lift and level them.  When the work was completed and all hazards were removed, the homeowners were relieved to have a safe place for their family and friends. 

In Wellesley, Ontario, this home had a garage and side entrance sink alarmingly. The garage made it challenging for cars to come and go, and the side entrance made it a tripping hazard, especially in the dark hours of the day. The homeowners reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling to level things out; no pun intended. They were thrilled to hear that the process can be completed within the same day, it will be non-invasive, and the concrete can be used right away after our PolyLevel® is in place. Our Installation Specialist arrived to start the leveling. He set up, lifted the concrete, and cleaned it up in under fifteen minutes which is outstanding versus mud jacking; you would have to wait until everything underneath is dry. Our high-density polyurethane cures immediately when applied so our clients can use their concrete spaces right after leaving. In little to no time, the garage and side entryway were hazard-free!      

Garages are meant to be easy to drive in and out of them. Unfortunately, this home in Waterloo, Ontario, gave the homeowners a run for their money! The garage threshold had a lip since the driveway had started sinking. The lip creates three problems: a tripping hazard when walking in and out, trouble driving in, and pooling/ice forming depending on the weather. The homeowners wanted to fix this problem without pouring more material, compromising the look of the driveway, and they wanted to save the most money possible. They did some research and noticed that they could contact Canadian Concrete Leveling and fix their concrete without compromising the existing driveway.    After the homeowners scheduled an appointment for one of our Project Managers, Andy Moncrieff provided a thorough and honest quote. Our installation team was able to start on the job on a later day. Our installation team, Kyle McKeown and JP Basto, arrived on the scene to lift this driveway back to normal. They use our highly dense polyurethane, which we refer to as our PolyLevel® system, to permanently raise the concrete as quickly and effectively as possible. Depending on the job, it can take five minutes to one hour to complete. Thankfully the job was minuscule and took about 15 minutes to set up, do the work and clean up. The invasion of the driveway is at an all-time low since the injection holes are about the size of a dime. The homeowners were very impressed that they could use the driveway immediately since the curing time is minimal, and the hazards are gone for good! No worries anymore about getting in the garage!

In Waterloo, Ontario, a customer who was known to be a big entertainer became very anxious about having guests over when they discovered their porch had begun to sink below its original grade. This was a safety concern as uneven concrete can be a recipe for a trip and fall. So, when they called Canadian Concrete Leveling, our team knew just what to do for this common type of job!   The crew used a non-invasive injection known as our PolyLevel® expandable polyurethane that lifted the concrete back to its original grade. This lifted the stress of an accident off the customer's shoulders, and they couldn't have been more pleased with the result!

When winter is finally over, spring holds great anticipation for spending more time outside. For homeowners in Kitchener, ON those ideas quickly faded when they discovered sinking concrete in several areas – the garage, driveway and backyard patio. They knew the concrete needed to fixed to protect their vehicles and prevent water from pooling along the foundation of the house. Our Project Manager recommended our PolyLevel® Injection System to lift and level all of the concrete. In addition, he suggested sealing cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro® Sealant to protect from rain or melting snow. The homeowners felt a huge sense of relief knowing they could spend time in their yard relaxing or puttering in the garage without worrying about how to fix sinking concrete. 

Homeowners in Kitchener, ON, noticed that many of the concrete slabs in their walkway at the side of house were sinking. Since they were looking at the walkway, they also noticed several cracks. They knew they needed to fix these issues so family and friends would not be tripping on their way to the backyard or front of the house. Our Project Manager recommended our PolyLevel® Injection System to lift and level the concrete. To fix the cracks, our installation team would use NexusPro® Sealant to stop water from getting under the slabs and creating more soil issues. The homeowners were impressed with how quickly the crew fixed the walkway and they could use it again almost right away.

Pools are a hassle during the setup process. Uncovering the pool, cleaning it out, and ensuring the chemicals are balanced, the surrounding pool deck is ready to rumble. Everything checked off with this pool in Kitchener, Ontario, except the surrounding pool deck. The deck consisted of more giant concrete slabs, similar to a side walkway, and over time the slabs shifted outward, leaving a separation between the deck and the pool and various tripping hazards.    The separation between the pool deck and the actual pool can result in foundation cracking in the pool from the elements. To prevent that from happening and to put the tripping to a halt, the homeowners contacted Canadian Concrete Leveling. The great thing about our work is that we don't replace your already existing, good condition concrete; we lift it with our high-density polyurethane. After the initial call from the homeowners, we scheduled a day for our Project Manager, Andy Moncrieff, to provide an honest quote. Then on a later day, we have our installation team, JP and Kyle, come to the home and start with the polyurethane injections. Our injection holes are dime-sized and are sealed off with our anti-cracking, waterproof, and chemical resistant sealant. The process took under 30 minutes to set up, do the work, to clean up. The owners were impressed and didn't have to worry about water coming anywhere outside the pool.

In Guelph, Ontario, a stunning walkway was compromised by shifting, trip-hazardous concrete. As a result, when having guests of all ages over, many would fall leading up to the house. The homeowners became very anxious that someone would get severely hurt. In order to entertain again and prevent injury, the walkway had to get levelled out. It was time to make a call and take a step in the right direction, literally.    Andy Moncrieff visited the home to give the homeowners a look at what would be done to fix the walkway. The homeowners finally felt much more at ease knowing they would have a safe entry point to their home.    Installation Specialist Kyle McKeown lifted the walkway slabs permanently using our high-density polyurethane filling any voids underneath. The process only took just under fifteen minutes and did not disrupt the foot traffic of the home. After completing the work, the clients were thrilled to see the concrete level again.

A home in Duntroon, Ontario, had unleveled concrete. The driveway and walkway in the front of the home had sunk over time, causing trip hazards and eyesores. With the sinking concrete came the issue of water flowing towards the home.

The solution was to stabilize the soil and then lift the slabs so that there was no longer a trip hazard. Our team used the PolyLevel injection system to fill the voids and lift the slab back to the original pour line. The customer was delighted with the nonintrusive solution and is happy he can use his driveway 45 minutes after the work is completed.

Within a few hours, the homeowner's garage floor was lifted, levelled, and restored to its original grade. Our customer's mind is at ease that his garage floor would no longer face structural damage!
