Concrete leveling in Bartlett involves lifting and leveling concrete slabs, patios, sidewalks, and driveways using the polyjacking method. In this process, we use expanding polyurethane foam. It’s a toxin-free concrete leveling solution that’s faster and stronger than other methods like mudjacking.
Why Does Concrete Settle?
There are many reasons why concrete settles, such as poor drainage, bad site conditions, and low-quality compaction. The most common reason we see is when rainwater washes away dirt from under the driveway or sideway, creating pockets beneath the concrete. This causes the concrete to settle.
Another reason is clay-rich soil. This soil expands and contracts based on the level of moisture in it. When the soil is saturated with water, it expands. Then, the soil shrinks when it dries. This instability in soil makes the concrete move and sink gradually.
Concrete Leveling Using Polyjacking
Benefits of Polyjacking
Fast Action
Just 15 minutes after injection, your concrete slab will be ready to walk on. It will also be able to support vehicular traffic.
Minimally-Invasive
The whole process doesn’t require any excavation, so you won't find a mess around your concrete.
Lightweight
Polyurethane foam is lightweight and doesn’t contribute to future soil settlement, unlike other processes like mudjacking, which includes heavy materials.
Environmentally Friendly
The inert foam never reacts with soil or moisture and doesn’t add any harmful chemicals to the ground.
Cost-Effective
The polyjacking process can save up to 50% of the total cost of any traditional concrete slab replacement method.
Waterproof
Once the concrete leveling process is done, you can be sure that the polyurethane foam won’t wash away.
