Repaired Walkway Stopped Water Flowing to Home's Foundation, Kitchener, ON

A walkway located beside a garage in Kitchener, ON, had sinking concrete slabs that were creating several trip hazards. A few of the slabs slanted towards the foundation making it easy for water to flow towards the home’s foundation. Since the homeowners did not want to give water a chance to leak into their basement, they knew they needed a practical solution as soon as possible. 

They discovered that Canadian Concrete Leveling provides a quick, clean and permanent solution to sinking concrete so they gave the office a call. Our experienced Project Manager met with the homeowners to inspect the walkway issues. He reassured the homeowners that we could fix the slabs with our PolyLevel® Injection System. Compared to conventional concrete lifting methods, PolyLevel® is long-lasting, and doesn’t add additional weight to the soil. It can be installed in less time than other methods. He also recommended our NexusPro® sealant to repair and seal cracks that he found in a few of the concrete pieces. 

Our Installation Supervisor and Installation Specialist levelled one slab at a time making sure to eliminate the trip hazards. Next, the crew sealed the cracks with our highly durable NexusPro® Sealant. NexusPro® is waterproof, chemical-resistant, and stops water from trickling through cracks in the concrete and disturbing the soil underneath.

The homeowners were thrilled with the results and how quickly the installation was completed – just a matter of a few hours. They definitely would recommend our PolyLevel® system and NexusPro® sealant to their neighbours dealing with sinking concrete.
