Sinking Concrete Floor Threatens Ski Lift in The Blue Mountains, Ontario
Properly working equipment can make or break a business, especially when it’s seasonal. Even losing one day due to a power or equipment failure can cost thousands and leave customers with a bad taste.
A ski club owner in The Blue Mountains, Ontario, was concerned about losing the use of one of his lifts due to a concrete floor that had settled 2 inches. Beneath the floor was a conduit pipe that housed electrical cables and powered the ski lift, and the sinking floor was putting stress on the pipe. Not only could this cause a power outage, but it could also start a fire, shutting down the club and potentially hurting someone.
Wanting to deal with the situation before it caused an emergency, the owner reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling. Project Manager Joe McColl travelled to the ski club to meet with the customer for a free inspection. After checking out the building, it was clear to Joe that our PolyLevel® System could lift the concrete floor and remove the stress on the pipe.
Foreman Bill McKeown and Installation Specialist Mark Sealy started by drilling dime-sized holes in the concrete, being careful not to hit the pipe. They injected our PolyLevel® Polymer beneath the floor, lifting and leveling it to the base of the wall. Any voids beneath the floor were also filled, stabilizing the concrete to prevent any future sinking.
The ski club owner is very pleased that there is no longer a risk of power failure or fire. His customers can rest assured knowing their day on the slopes won’t be impacted, and the customer is looking forward to a great winter in The Blue Mountains!
Simple Driveway Lift in Duntroon, ON
A concrete driveway and connected walkway had been sinking over time at a home in Duntroon, ON. The concrete was uneven and was getting worse to the point where it could be a serious tripping hazard. Since the concrete had started to slope, water was also beginning to pool against the house possibly leaking through the foundation.
The customer called Canadian Concrete Leveling to fix the problem. Our expert installation team used our patented PolyLevel Injection System to fill the voids under the concrete to lift and stabilize the driveway and the walkway. No more trip hazards.
The customer was happy the driveway and walkway were fixed in a relatively short time and they wouldn’t need to worry about tripping when going in and out of the house. Pooling water issues were also eliminated.
Pooling Water on Sinking Walkway, Stayner, ON
A concrete walkway had been sinking for a while and had started to slant toward the house in Stayner, ON. As a result, water was pooling along the house. The homeowner was getting worried water might start leaking through to the basement.
The homeowner called Canadian Concrete Leveling hoping to get the walkway fixed. Paul Mendell, Project Lead, visited the homeowner and suggested our patented PolyLevel® Injection System. Bill McKeown and Kyle McKeown, our expert installation team, lifted and stabilized the concrete slabs to make the walkway level again. Next, the team used NexusPro® Sealant between the walkway and house to prevent water from leaking through the foundation.
The homeowner was excited to have the walkway repaired in a short amount of time and enjoy peace of mind knowing water was not going to leak into their basement.
Slanted Steps, Stayner, ON
Over time, concrete steps started to sink and were beginning to slant to the side in Stayner, ON. The steps had a large gap between the top step and the porch. The steps were becoming a tripping hazard for the homeowner's elderly parents.
The homeowner called Canadian Concrete Leveling and our Project Lead, Paul Mendell, explained the benefits of our PolyLevel Injection System. Our installation team, Bill McKeown and Kyle McKeown, used polyurethane and NexusPro Sealant. The polyurethane was injected under the steps to lift, stabilize, and level the concrete. NexusPro Sealant was used around the steps to keep water out.
The homeowner was relieved that the tripping hazard was eliminated and they wouldn’t have to worry about their elderly parents using the stairs.
