What started as a few small settling issues slowly turned into a real source of frustration for this Kitchener family. Over the years, shifting soil beneath the home caused the backyard concrete patio to sink and pull apart, leaving behind a web of deep cracks that made the surface uneven and unsafe. In addition to the visual impact, the raised and sunken edges created trip hazards and allowed water to collect closer to the foundation than anyone would want.
Wanting to protect their home and enjoy their outdoor space again, the homeowners reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling for help. Our team arrived on site and took a thoughtful, non-invasive approach, using polyurethane injection to gently lift the sunken sections and fill the voids below. This process restored stability to the concrete while minimizing disruption to the surrounding area.
Once the slabs were properly aligned, we carefully filled and sealed each crack with our weather-resistant sealant, bringing the patio back together as a single, cohesive surface. This added layer of protection helps keep moisture out and is designed to stand up to Southwestern Ontario’s freeze-thaw cycles.
By the end of the afternoon, the patio felt solid, safe, and welcoming again. The homeowners were able to step back outside the very same day, confident their concrete was stabilized and their outdoor space was ready to be enjoyed for years to come.
