Concrete Slab Settlement in Englishtown

Challenge

The homeowner of a single family home had been having concrete issues around his pool patio for over 15 years! Fed up and ready to do something about the problem, he decided to contact Foundation Supportworks of New Jersey. His concrete slab experienced settling of up to 5 inches, which raised concern for trip hazards for his children. With summer approaching, the settlement slab around the pool area began to alarm the homeowner for not only the appearance of his home, but more importantly the safety of his family.

Solution

Foundation Supportworks of New Jersey remedied the homeowner’s problem with the PolyLEVEL (TM) Polyurethane Injection System. Head PolyLEVELTM Specialist Joe Nero drilled penny sized holes into the settling and sunken parts of the concrete slab around the pool. He then was able to use the specialized equipment to inject the polyurethane under the concrete and raise it back to its original elevation. With the use of the PolyLEVEL (TM) system, exclusively available to Foundation Supportworks dealers, we were able to stabilize and lift the settling concrete slab(s) up 5 inches toward its original position. The PolyLEVE (TM) system was installed in less than half a day, with absolutely no mess left behind.The family was able to safely walk in the concrete slabs just minutes after installation. The fast installation process gave the homeowner peace of mind and left him very pleased knowing that his family can safely use their pool patio, just in time for summer fun.
