It's that time of year to clean up the back patio, uncover all the furniture, and get the grill ready, but there was one problem when setting up this space. In Washago, Ontario, this concrete back patio had started to sink and crack. The homeowners were worried about how much this fix would cost. In addition, the concrete was now angled so that when rainwater would land on top, it would get directed toward the home's foundation. Only half the concrete was sinking which resulted in it cracking down the middle. Weighing their options, they decided to have the pros at Canadian Concrete Leveling handle the situation.
Our most experienced Project Manager, Paul Mendell, arrived at the home to recommend two products that would leave the patio levelled back to its standard height and sealed from all the elements. Our Installation Supervisor, Kyle McKeown, began the levelling process using our PolyLevel® Injection System. High-density, quick-expanding polyurethane is injected through the concrete to fill voids and stabilize the soil below. PolyLevel® is a lightweight and long-lasting solution for all sinking concrete. To seal everything together and protect the PolyLevel®, Kyle used our NexusPro® sealant. The homeowners were amazed by the professionalism and swiftness of the work. Now it's time to get that patio back in action.
Planning for retirement is exciting, but also a lot of work. It takes a lot of financial planning, but the reward of enjoying your golden years is well worth it.
A customer in Sebright, Ontario, recently purchased a cottage property. He had torn down the original building but wanted to keep the garage as a place to work on his classic cars with his son during his retirement. It's a great space for a workshop, but the concrete slab the garage was sitting on had cracked and settled.
We had previously done work for the customer's home in Uxbridge, Ontario, so he knew exactly who to call when he discovered the problem.
Project Manager Paul Mendell met with the customer at his new property and inspected the garage. Paul discovered that voids had formed beneath the building, and this was causing the concrete to settle.
Foreman Bill McKeown worked hard using our PolyLevel® System to lift the concrete slab. Bill injected our high-density polyurethane beneath the slabs to evenly lift the concrete.
The customer is thrilled that his garage is level. He can start to renovate and turn it into a shop, and he's delighted that Canadian Concrete Leveling exceeded his expectations once again for a fraction of the cost.
We love to make our clients happy! We improved this step so that it no longer slopes. By installing PolyLevel® it not only looks better, but it’s also safer!
Moving out of the city to the suburbs is a big move, but moving into your dream home is what matters. Our clients in Peterborough wanted to have a ready-to-move-in home, but unfortunately, there was some work to do before making it their ideal space. The front walkway was sinking on one side, exposing its foundation. With the foundation exposed, the house was vulnerable to underneath damage.
With the help of Kyle O'Brien and our installation team, the problem was fixed in under 60 minutes using our PolyLevel® injections. Kyle recommended the injection method, which involves minimal invasion and little to no curing time, and it did precisely that. The walkway looked flawless after the work was done. No more worry about foundation integrity loss.
Usually, our home’s foundation is made from concrete, or something very similar. Concrete is the base of our home, and typically, there is a concrete subfloor in the basement.
A customer in Peterborough, Ontario, noticed that his basement floor wasn’t meeting the bottom edge of the wall like it used to. He had no idea what to do, so he reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling for a solution.
He met with Project Manager Joe McColl who put his worries at ease. Joe explained how we could lift the concrete and also fill any voids below to prevent the problem from reoccurring.
Foreman Bill McKeown completed the repair by drilling several dime-sized holes in the floor. These holes are used for injecting our high-density polymer, which expands beneath the concrete.
The customer is thrilled that his basement floor is repaired. His home is protected, and he saved thousands, not excavating.
