Before & After Photos

In Davenport, IA, a customer needed a hand lifting a sunken driveway that had developed quite the tilt—the kind that could send a runaway skateboard flying! To tackle the concrete chaos, System Design Specialist Andrew Sagar mapped out a plan, and Foreman Justin Maddox, Jr. led our trusty crew to work their magic.

This Davenport driveway was in rough shape. Slabs were sinking and cracking, allowing bugs to burrow and weeds to grow between the cracks of the driveway. The appearance and functionality left a lot to be desired. Soon, MidAmerica Basement Systems was called to fix the problem with PolyLevel foam and Nexus Pro Crack Sealing. The slabs were lifted, and the cracks and joints were filled with Nexus Pro Crack Sealing. Nexus Pro bonds with either side of the concrete, and adjusts in temperature change to keep the concrete from cracking again.

Jay was having issues with an unlevel driveway and quickly contacted the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems. He was offered PolyLevel to lift, level and stabilize the sinking concrete. Small holes were drilled into the slabs to allow for injection of the material, filling to voids and lifting to concrete. Once the concrete was lifted, the PolyLevel quickly hardened to provide a permanent and stable hold. NexusPro Joint Sealant was than applied to all the cracks along the driveway to prevent future washouts and to protected both the treated and untreated areas from water. NexusPro is a flexible sealant that moves and shifts with the natural movement of the ground.

Britauna was in the process of replacing her old carpet flooring with laminate when she noticed that her slab foundation had begun to sink. She quickly reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems for help. PolyLevel was offered to lift and stabilize the sinking slab for the home owner. The high-density polymers have a lifting force of 2,000 to 4,000 pounds per square foot, allowing for the structure of the home to be properly lifted. The 1 to 2 inch gaps quickly began to vanish, filling the voids under the foundation and lifting the floor back up against the floor vents. The expansion of the PolyLevel effectively stabilized the slab, allowing for the homeowner to continue her new flooring process. Britauna no longer has issues with large gaps between the floor and the walls thanks to PolyLevel.
