Before & After Photos

Parking lots are high trafficked areas not only with cars, but with people walking as well. Having uneven concrete can pose for high risks of unsafe walking grounds. Marty, the grounds keeper of the business, was concerned for his customers’ safety, and had it brought to attention. He contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to address the unlevel concrete and have PolyLevel injected. PolyLevel lifted the 2-inch-dropped slab, back to it’s original, level state. Now customers can walk in the parking lot, without the worry of tripping hazards.

Between Ken’s home and garage, there is a sidewalk that has shifted and sank over the years. He was concerned about how it could be lifted without causing damage to the foundation of the garage and home. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems, since in the past they had helped him with his bowing wall and leaking basement issues. Ken was offered the PolyLevel solution, which is similar to the application of mudjacking. Small 3/8^th inch holes are drilled into the concrete so PolyLevel can be injected. Once the solution is injected, the voids are filled and the PolyLevel expands to lift and level the concrete. The lightweight material also does not put extra stress against the foundations, making ideal for the sidewalk. Ken now has a leveled sidewalk in between his garage and home.

Homeowner Heather contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems after learning that we offer concrete lifting and leveling services. She wanted to learn more about how these service work. PolyLevel is a foam that is injected under a concrete slab the foam then expands and hards lifting the slab back to where it was previously. PolyLeveling is a great way to lift an level driveway, sidewalks and garage floors along with patios. 

Richard was concerned about his concrete steps to the front porch, for the stairs had sunken, causing the step from the stairs to the porch to become very large. MidAmerica Basement Systems offered their injection technology to lift and level the sunken stairs. PolyLevel was injected into the steps, filling the void and lifting the concrete. PolyLevel uses a lightweight material that doesn’t exert extra pressure to the failing soil, and provides a permanent solution to leveling concrete. After PolyLevel was injected, the 3inch drop was no longer an issue.

Brian and Jackie were having concerns about how they wanted to lift and level their sunken driveway. The transition between the driveway and the garage had become more than a 3-inch difference, but didn’t know who they wanted to do the work. They were given many different options and pricing, but all seem way to expensive. They were ready to give up until the met with Cole from MidAmerica Basement Systems. He offered a solution of PolyLevel that wasn’t only cheaper, but a more permanent and effective result. PolyLevel not only lifts to concrete to the desired height, but offers a material that is completely waterproof so it will not wash away like typical mudjacking slurry. PolyLevel is also environmental friendly so it will never rot and decay over time. Briand Jackie no longer have a sinking driveway, and the transition between the garage and driveway is back to smooth.
