This Walkway Is Sloping In The Wrong Direction, Toronto, ON

Before	After

This walkway running alongside the home was sinking all over the place, causing tripping hazards and water dripping into the home's foundation. The homeowners needed a solution that would not cost them a fortune, take as little time as possible, and be a permanent fix. After some research, they found Canadian Concrete Leveling to do the work. We sent our Project Manager, Joe McColl, to the home and began his quote. He devised a schematic that the whole side walkway would need PolyLevel® injections to the point the inward slanting would slant outward and have water bead off the concrete and onto the lawn rather than in the foundation. 

After the quote was given out, it was time to send our Installation Specialist, Bill McKeown. He began by unloading the truck and drilling holes in the lowest points on the walkway. After the holes were placed, it was time to hammer out PolyLevel® caps in them where the machine's nozzle will connect. From there, but was time to inject the polyurethane into the voids underneath. The fascinating thing about PolyLevel® is that you can see the slab rise immediately. At first, it doesn't seem like much is happening because the voids underneath need to be filled, but the second they do, it lifts before your eyes! The homeowners were very impressed with the results and how little time it took to complete. 

Avoiding a Bad Trip in Toronto, Ontario

Before	After

Winter and everything fun that comes with it is rapidly approaching. Ready we must be for this dreadful upcoming season of ice, snow, rain and sleet. For many people falling and slipping is a daily reality, and it can be a severe hazard. Injuries from concussions to broken arms and hips occur daily in every corner of the earth. Hundreds of thousands of people are injured by trips and falls every year, whether on the job or just minding their own business at home. Trips and falls are also a prevalent cause of injury lawsuits because, unfortunately, but not uncommonly, most trips, if not all, are preventable.

One customer in Toronto wasn’t going to wait for a potential liability or, worse, injuring themselves on their property. They were constantly tip-toeing around this walkway area and telling guests to avoid it due to its obvious danger. Finally, tired of living in constant fear and worried about the upcoming Winter, this customer reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling.

With over 15 years in the industry, project manager Danny Dos Santos immediately saw the apparent tripping hazards. He recommended a cost-effective long-term solution to eliminate the danger for good.

Foreman Kyle McKeown installed our PolyLevel® Injection System. Its high-density polyurethane follows the path of least resistance underneath the concrete slabs filling in all the voids and expanding, lifting and levelling the concrete as it does so. In addition, this process ensures a strong bond that keeps these significant slabs level with the surrounding concrete.

The customer can take the weight off their shoulders, knowing with confidence that their front walkway is safe for themselves, their guests and anyone who happens to visit.
