Old Carpet Hides Cracking on Front Porch in Orillia, Ontario

Hide it and forget it is sometimes an option we turn to. We throw something away in the storage room, or we use a rug to cover a small stain. It works, but it’s not the best way to remedy a situation.

A customer in Orillia, Ontario, had an old carpet on his front porch. It had been there for years, and when he finally removed it, he found cracking and sinking throughout his concrete porch. His neighbours had previously had work done by us, so he decided to give us a call too.

The homeowner met with Project Manager Paul Mendell, and a date was set for the repair. Foreman Kyle McKeown used our PolyLevel® system to lift and level the concrete, while also compressing the fill soils below. This prevents any further sinking or a washout down the road. 

With the work complete, the customer is ecstatic about his front porch. He was impressed with the job done and has recommended us to family and friends.
