Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Skillman, NJ discovered their walkway was sinking and settling creating cracks in the concrete. They decided to have it fixed, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to find the best solution. Our System Design Specialist, Jeff Pitek, recommended our Polylevel Injection would be the perfect solution. Polylevel holds many benefits including being waterproof, environmentally friendly, and a clean installation process. Unlike Mud Jacking, Polylevel is not a mixture of concrete and mud, but instead a polyurethane foam made from structural graded polymers. Polylevel is long-lasting and won't easily break, crack, or wash away. 

Poor soil compaction combined with persistent moisture intrusion caused the concrete around a backyard pool deck in Skillman, NJ to sink and crack, creating dangerous tripping hazards and diminishing the overall appearance of the patio. The homeowner, concerned not only about safety but also the value and aesthetic of their outdoor space, reached out to Quality 1st for a reliable and lasting solution.

Our team conducted a thorough inspection of the site, identifying the underlying issues and tailoring a repair strategy specifically for the property’s conditions.

To address the settlement, we utilized our innovative PolyLevel Foam Injection system, which lifts and stabilizes the sunken concrete by filling voids beneath the slab with a lightweight, high-density foam. To further enhance the durability and finish of the repair, our crew applied NexusPro Joint Sealant, a UV-resistant product designed to protect against water infiltration and cracking.

The result was a beautifully leveled and safe pool deck that not only resolved the homeowner’s concerns but also significantly elevated the visual appeal of their backyard. With the project completed, the homeowner was left with a renewed sense of pride and confidence in their outdoor living space!

A homeowner in Hillsborough noticed that his concrete driveway had sunk over time. The sinking concrete caused a large gap between the garage and driveway making it difficult for the homeowner's vehicles to enter the garage safely. Quality 1st Basement Systems repaired the driveway using the PolyLEVEL system which quickly and economically raised the concrete restoring this driveway!

Trip hazards are caused by sinking and settling concrete. A concrete slab will sink and settle due to the soil beneath it. When soil becomes too wet, too dry or poor compacted it becomes weak and can no longer support the weight of the concrete causing it to settle. 

Our team drills small penny size holes into the concrete slab and injects the polyurethane foam underneath to lift and level the concrete.
