Sinking Concrete Threatens Pool Stability in Penetanguishene, Ontario

Being away from a property can be a stressful situation. Many cottage owners go through this every winter, so doing what you can to prepare is essential. 

A customer in Penetanguishene, Ontario, had a pool situated near the water, and a retaining wall supported the patio. The pool deck had settled over the years, and water was pooling between the deck and retaining wall. The owner was concerned that a flash-freeze could push out the retaining wall and possibly cause it to lean or collapse.

Looking for a solution without having to redo the wall, the customer called Canadian Concrete Leveling. Project Manager Paul Mendell met the customer at his cottage and inspected the pool deck. The customer was happy to hear we could remedy his problem without any major disruptions. 

Foreman Kyle McKeown used our PolyLevel® polyurethane to lift the concrete slabs. By injecting our system through dime-sized holes, we were able to lift the deck a few inches, bringing the patio back to grade level and eliminating any pooling water. 

The customer is delighted with the work done. Their pool deck is protected, and they can be away from their cottage with peace of mind.

Sinking Unattractive Back Patio in Brampton, Ontario

 

Make your home a beautiful space inside and out. This home in Brampton looked dapper from the inside, but when the snow started melting, temperatures started rising, and people started to make their way to the patio, hazards struck. The back porch's step started to sink! Not only did the sinking action cause tripping hazards, but it was an eyesore too. The homeowners wanted to keep the clean look throughout the home, so they decided to call Canadian Concrete Leveling.

Canadian Concrete Leveling can keep your good-looking concrete intact while lifting it back to its original position. Since the homeowners already had great concrete work, there was no need to add more layers of concrete and jeopardize the look. From the owners doing the initial search to giving our call centre a call, we were able to send one of our Project Managers, Julio Soley, to check out the home firsthand. Once the estimate was given, Julio explained to the clients how the installation team would inject our polyurethane into the slab to lift it back. Later that week, our installation team, Bill and Aidan McKeown, arrived at the home to start the work. They followed Julio's schematics and knew exactly what to do. Bill began to drill small dime-sized holes into the lower points of the concrete to prepare them for the polyurethane injections. Once the holes were made, the holes were capped. The caps are meant for the PolyLevel® gun that will hook on securely so that once the poly is being injected, the gun stays in its place. Bill began injecting the holes and watched the concrete step lift almost right away. The lifting process baffled our clients, and Aidan was on standby to put the sealant between the joints. Our sealant referred to as NexusPro®, is waterproof, anti-cracking, and chemical resistant so that it will be long-lasting for many years. The process only took under an hour, and the clean-up was immaculate. The step looked a lot newer than before, leaving the homeowners comfortable knowing that no one will trip and the clean look it has now given off.

Sinking On Both Sides of The House? Brampton, Ontario

This home in Brampton, Ontario, had problems running along both sides. The left side walkway had started to sink and separate from the house, leaving an inch of space between the path and the foundation. And on the other side was the porch with falling steps that exposed the home's foundation. To prevent damaging the stability of the home's foundation, these problems needed to be fixed as soon as possible. Thankfully with a bit of research, the homeowners found Canadian Concrete Leveling. 

 

Later that week, we were able to send out our Project Manager, Julio Soley, to the home and guide the owners through our leveling process. After quoting them and talking them through the steps on how we will level the concrete permanently, it was time to schedule a day for our Installation Specialist, Bill McKeown, to come in. A few business days Larter, Bill arrived at the home knowing exactly what needed to be done, what areas needed leveling, and how long it will take. Bill started by injecting the polyurethane into the lowered steps at the front. Within minutes the staircase had come back to its original state. Next was to level the side walkways. Once the walk was done, it was time to apply our sealant to the joints. Our seal is long-lasting and anti-cracking, so you never have to worry about water coming in again. With Julio and Bill's help, this house is looking dapper. 

 

Customer Can't Believe his Eyes in Burlington, Ontario

The good ol’ garage. It’s where dads go to pretend to work, where teenagers start their first band, and where all the summer toys live in the winter. Garages deal with a lot, and after a while, it can take a toll.

In Burlington, Ontario, a customer reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling to deal with sinking concrete. He was trying to avoid having a new garage floor poured, so he thought we were the perfect alternative.

After meeting with Project Manager Joe McColl, he realized he was right. Joe explained how our PolyLevel® System could lift the concrete using expanding polyurethane. Joe combined this with our NexusPro® Sealant System to keep out water and debris. The customer couldn’t have been happier.

Foreman Kyle McKeown used dime-sized holes in the concrete surface to inject our high-density polyurethane. As the polymers mix and expand, they lift the slab while filling any voids. Kyle used NexusPro® to seal the cracks and seams, providing a waterproof seal.

The customer can barely tell that we were even there. We left very little trace, and the job was completed in a matter of hours. Another happy Canadian Concrete Leveling customer!
