The homeowner in Stilwell, KS was struggling with their concrete leading from the driveway up to the front steps. There was major settlement that had occurred and it was becoming a trip hazard. Worried that it would become worse and other parts would also start to settle, they decided to call Thrasher.
The crew was able to identify that major settlement had occurred because the soil underneath had washed away due to exposed joints. We used PolyLevel to bring the slab back up to the original level, getting rid of the trip hazard. Then to seal the joints we used NexusPro Joint Sealant to close up the exposed joints and prevent water from entering. The customer was extremely happy to never have to worry about tripping over their concrete again.
These front steps were sinking due to water getting underneath the concrete slab and making the soil swell. To permanently fix this problem, we raised the slabs back in place and then sealed the joint and cracks around the area. We used a polymer foam to raise the slab back up to help stabilize it. The foam is waterproof and is installed under high pressure which allows it to lift effortlessly. We then used a silicone joint and crack repair caulk to seal all cracks and joints.
This driveway in Overland Park, KS had large joints that were allowing water to penetrate the concrete slabs. This can cause major damage to the driveway and can also harm vehicles. To fix this, we sealed the joints with NexusPro, a long-lasting and durable silicone-based solution.
Homeowner Jian J. in Overland Park, KS has been struggling with his driveway concrete. He started to notice the problems about 4 years ago and had the area mudjacked, but the solution didn’t last. Wanting to maintain his home’s value, he called Thrasher to learn about concrete lifting solutions.
We sent System Design Specialist, Tom Studer out to Jian’s home. Upon inspection of the driveway, Tom identified that the settling was occurring due to poor fill soil and the weight of the previous mudjacking. The crew was able to raise the driveway slab with PolyLevel. Then used NexusPro to seal the joints and cracks to prevent further water penetration. Then we also buried a few of the downspouts to direct the water away from the driveway. Jian was completely impressed with the crew’s professionalism and the final look of the driveway
This customer wanted to fix the concrete in his driveway. The driveway had cracked all across one of the concrete slabs and into the other sections of the driveway. We were able to level the slabs and broken chunks with our polylevel foam and sealed the crakes and joins with nexus pro to prevent water from getting under the concrete. This fixed his concrete without having to replace the entire driveway.
