This Kentucky home had a rather long crack on the basement floor. The homeowner knew it needed to be fixed to prevent further damage to his home's foundation. The shifting and cracking of a concrete floor normally are not due to the floor itself, but normally because of the soil underneath. The soil collects water and then dries up, which causes the concrete floor to shrink and expand.
Our Specialists used PolyLevel to lift and level the concrete, NexusPro Crack Repair, and also NexusPro Joint Sealant to seal the crack. The NexusPro Sealant is the MUCH better alternative to the commonly used urethane caulking because it is UV resistant, therefore it can withstand harsh weather conditions and will not crack, bubble, or dry!
This homeowner is a happy customer now that his foundation is safe again!
This Kentucky family had a huge tripping hazard and wanted it to get fixed asap before anyone got hurt. Natural earth and soil movement caused the concrete sidewalk to crack and shift. One side of the cracked sidewalk was over an inch above the other and our inspector knew exactly what to do. Our crew raised the slab with PolyLevel, a weightless polyurethane foam, and then sealed together with NexusPro to prevent further cracking.
NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that was built to stand up to harsh weather conditions. It is also UV ray resistant and won't crack or bubbble!

This Kentucky homeowner had their AC sitting on a cement pad that was connected to their house. The pad started sinking and broke off from the home. This could have been caused by many things, such as the soil not being properly prepared before cement was laid on top or soil shifting from erosion or an earthquake. Either way, the pad settled and was causing an unsightly crack that opened up the homes foundation to outside elements.
Our solution to this easily fixed problem was PolyLevel and NexusPro. PolyLevel is polyurethane foam that is injected to lift sunken slabs. Long-lasting NexusPro was then used to seal the crack. This sealant cures in just 60 minutes and is not affected by extreme temps!
Before and after photos showing bricks that are falling away from the concrete slab, and how the use of PolyLevel and NexusPro Sealant closes that up and makes the porch more stable.
These Tennessee homeowners loved their beautiful home, but they DID NOT love the huge tripping hazard right in front of it!
They googled concrete repair companies and found us! Our inspector came to the home and assessed the porch, steps, and walkway. He told the homeowners about our products and how we could help them with a lasting solution. .
Concrete Repair Products Used:
PolyLevel- utilizes high-density polyurethane foam to stabilize and level concrete floors and foundations
This is done by boring small (penny sized) holes in the slab, and using specially designed equipment to inject a structural grade polymer into the void. After the void is filled, the expanding properties of the polyurethane foam allows for an accurate lift and leveling of the slab. Finally, the small holes are grouted and sealed, and the slab is completely restored.
NexusPro Crack Sealant- a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry. It fits into homeowners' busy lifestyles, too - drying time is a fraction of that needed for other urethane-based caulking products.
The homeowners now have a safe sidewalk and are glad to be able to walk on it without having to constantly avoid tripping!
