Before & After Photos

Over time the ground underneath concrete begins to settle, causing voids between the ground and concrete. This can than cause the concrete to sink into the void, leaving large spaces between concrete slabs. Mudjacking is a temporary solution, and over time, it causes the same issue. Injecting PolyLevel offers a permanent solution to sunken slabs. The lightweight material offers less weight to the failing soil, preventing future soil settlements. PolyLevel uses an accurate injection that fills the voids, and then lifts, levels, and stabilizes the concrete.

Homeowner Jim contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems when he learned that they offered concrete lifting and leveling. The PolyLevel that we offer is a foam that is injected under the concrete slab the foam fills the void under the slab that was the cause of the sinking. The foam expands and hardens to lift the concrete back to its former position. 

In Chillicothe, IL, a homeowner recognized the potential liability of uneven concrete as a trip hazard. This risk, as seen in the before photo, was discouraging for any welcoming space. Using our PolyLevel® system, we expertly lifted and leveled the concrete surfaces. NexusPro® Joint Sealant, which seals joints and prevents water intrusion, was the finishing touch to this sustainable solution and keeps the integrity of the slabs intact. As you can see in the after photo, MidAmerica Basement Systems redefined this customer’s space, adding safety and appearance with precision and industry-leading products.

In Lena, IL, homeowners noticed that their sunken concrete was becoming an eyesore and risk if left unattended. As you can see in the before photo, the uneven slabs were beginning to crack. To address this, we used our PolyLevel system, which precisely lifted and leveled the slabs, stabilizing their surface. Next, we applied NexusPro Joint Sealant to seal the cracks and joints, preventing water from causing future shifting. The after photo showcases the restored concrete's sturdy, level surface, ensuring it stays in excellent condition thanks to a precise solution from MidAmerica Basement Systems. 

Morton, IL homeowners contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems because their front walkway was several inches below the easement. Fred Romane came out and took a look, evaluating the needs of the Morton residence.

Before PolyLevel and Concrete Protection System were installed by foreman Levi Freund, the walkway left a lot to be desired. Now, the Morton homeowners come home to a beautiful and functional walkway - that will stay that way for quite a long time.
