Precision Slab Leveling and Joint Sealing - Richmond Hill, Ontario
Challenge
In Richmond Hill, a homeowner faced a rapidly deteriorating garage floor. The underlying issue was differential settlement, which caused the concrete slab to sink and crack significantly. This movement created serious trip hazards, while open cracks allowed water and debris to penetrate the sub-base, accelerating the slab’s deterioration. The homeowner’s primary concern extended beyond aesthetics: they were facing an immediate safety risk and a long-term threat to the structural integrity of the concrete floor.
Solution
We addressed the issue using a specialized, two-step process that avoids the cost and disruption of full concrete replacement.
First, using PolyLEVEL, our advanced slab-lifting technology, we precisely lifted and leveled the garage floor, bringing the settled sections back into proper alignment. This step immediately eliminated the primary trip hazards and restored the floor’s grade, significantly improving water runoff performance.
Next, we secured the repair for the long term by sealing all cracks and joints with a premium, flexible crack and joint sealant. This high-performance product created a durable, watertight barrier that prevents moisture and debris from entering the sub-base while remaining flexible enough to accommodate seasonal temperature changes.
The result is a fully stabilized, level, and protected garage floor. By correcting the structural issues and sealing the joints, we safeguarded the homeowner’s investment and enhanced the property in Richmond Hill, providing complete peace of mind.
