Sinking Concrete Postpones New Deck Build in North York, Ontario

When you make a significant investment or repair at your home, you want to make sure everything else is in proper working order too.

A customer in North York, Ontario, was getting ready to install a new wooden deck in their backyard. The deck sits flush with the pool deck, but the pool slabs had settled away from the deck over time. This created a tripping hazard between the two materials. 

The customer wanted to fix the concrete before redoing the deck, so he reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling. Project Manager Kyle O’Brien met with the customer and inspected the backyard. Kyle determined that soils had washed away from beneath the slabs. The customer wasn’t sure how we could fill the void without removing any concrete, so Kyle showed him a video demonstrating our PolyLevel® System.

As PolyLevel® is injected through dime-sized holes, it expands beneath the concrete. This process lifts the concrete while compressing any fill material below and filling any gaps. Once the repair is done, we patch the injection ports with fresh concrete. Foreman Bill McKeown worked hard repairing the concrete before showing the customer the completed work.

The customer is relieved we were able to repair the concrete before replacing the deck. He appreciates that we didn’t have to bring any heavy equipment through his backyard and enjoyed watching the process take place.
