Before & After Photos

In the camping grounds, there is a sheltered pavilion on a concrete slab. Over the years, the ground had settled, causing voids underneath the slab. Due to the weight of the pavilion, the slab started cracking and sinking into the voids, leaving for a hazardous area to use. Grounds keeper Mike reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems in hopes that PolyLevel would be able to fix the sunken and cracked slab. PolyLevel was injected under the slab to fill the voids. Once the voids were filled, the PolyLevel expanded to lift the sunken areas, and provide a stable solution for the slab. NexusPro Joint Sealant was then applied to all cracks around the slab to help create a longer lasting slab for the pavilion. 

In Epworth, IA, a homeowner faced an uneven and unsightly concrete parking area that limited usability and lowered the property's curb appeal. Water pooling and soil settlement had caused the heavy concrete slabs to sink, creating dangerous tripping hazards and an unstable surface. System Design Specialist Shawn Conaway inspected the site and designed a complete stabilization plan. To execute the restoration, Foreman Ricky Sigala and crew member Jaylen stepped in to bring the parking area back to a flush, stable finish.

The team began by drilling small, non-destructive injection ports into the settled slabs. Ricky and Jaylen then injected the advanced PolyLevel® polyurethane foam beneath the concrete. As the liquid foam expanded, it filled the underground voids, consolidated the loose soil, and gently lifted the heavy slabs back to an even plane. To protect the newly leveled parking area from future erosion, the crew sealed all open cracks and joints with NexusPro® Joint Sealant, which keeps water from seeping back under the concrete. Thanks to the expert work of MidAmerica Basement Systems, the homeowner now has a durable, seamless, and safe parking area that instantly enhances their property's value.

Gary was having issues with his sidewalk sinking and exposing the from underneath his front porch. It was very frustrating trying to sell his home with a very ugly entrance to the home. He reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have the sidewalk lifted and leveled once again. PolyLevel was injected under the concrete and properly lifted the sunken slab, stabilizing the area. Once the area was lifted, the from for the porch was no longer visible, making the entrance to Gary’s home appealing once again.

In Milan, IL a concerned son sought our expertise at MidAmerica Basement Systems for his mother's safety and convenience. Before, uneven concrete slabs were making trash bin management difficult and posed water drainage issues. Utilizing our PolyLevel system, we precisely lifted and leveled the concrete, efficiently correcting the imbalance. Then, with our NexusPro Joint Sealant, we sealed the cracks to prevent further soil erosion and water intrusion. As shown in the after photo, these methods provide lasting stability and improved functionality.
