Before & After Photos

Marty was starting to notice large stress cracks in his driveway. When he contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems about his issue, it was explained to him that it was due to small voids under the concrete. The weight of the concrete itself began sinking into the voids causing the concrete to crack. Dan, design specialist, offered Marty a concrete protection plan that uses a NexusPro Crack Repair and Joint Sealant. The sealant allows for a flexible, durable bond, keeping the cracks from becoming larger and sealing the ground off from water intrusion. Majority of voids come from water washouts, and providing a permanent seal from future washouts. NexusPro sealants also make concrete cracks unnoticeable as if there are no cracks at all.

Sunken sidewalks can cause turn a home’s curb appeal to an unsightly look. Injected PolyLevel from MidAmerica Basement Systems can help lift and stabilize the sunken slabs. For Aaron, his sidewalk had dropped about 3 inches from the concrete stoop. After PolyLevel was injected, the slab was lifted back to its original position, eliminating the excessive gap. To prevent future voids from forming, a NexusPro Joint Sealant was placed along the crack. It prevents water from seeping in between the slabs and washing out the ground underneath. Aaron’s curb appeal is now back to beautiful with leveled concrete slabs.

Homeowner Anthony contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when they noticed over time that their sidewalk and driveway were sinking and cracking. He wanted to learn more about the PolyLevel technology that we offer. PolyLeveling is a foam that is injected under the concrete slab and is used to lift and level the slab back to its previous place.

Over time, the ground under a concrete patio will shift and settle, creating voids and leaving the concrete to shift and sink. Dennis was having just this issue, leaving his patio unusable for him and his guests. Some areas had shifted so bad that large gaps had become an issue. Cole from MidAmerica Basement Systems, offered the solution of PolyLevel and NexusPro Joint Sealant. PolyLevel is a special polymer material that fills voids, and lifts and stabilizes the sunken slabs. NexusPro Joint Sealant provides a seal to reduce the appearance of the gaps, and most importantly, seals the ground from seeping water. Stopping water seepage prevents the ground from washing out, leaving the concrete level longer. Dennis and his guests can once again use his patio without worries.

Homeowner Sandy has lived in her home for the last 12 years. In the last two years, she has slowly noticed that her driveway and sidewalk started to sink and crack. She knew that this was a safety hazard and wanted to seek professional advice on how to advance on correcting the situation. She decided to contact MidAmerica Basement Systems to learn about the PolyLevel technology that is offered. PolyLevel is a foam that is pumped under the concrete slabs to help bring them back up. The PolyLvell fills the void under the slab that is causing the slab.
