Back Patio Settled and Cracked in Cumberland Beach, Ontario
A customer in Cumberland Beach, Ontario, was concerned about their backyard. As custom home builders, they take extreme pride in the workmanship and the look of their home. Unfortunately, their beautiful flagstone patio had gone from backyard oasis to cracked and sloped water collector. The flagstone was built on top of concrete pads, which sunk when the substrate beneath them settled. This caused water to drain towards the foundation instead of away from it, making the patio unsightly and creating cracks and tripping hazards. The customer had also installed two unique, large armour stones that connected to the patio, which sank significantly due to the weight. Ready to bring their backyard back to life, they reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling.
Project Manager Paul Mendell met with the customer to review their options. After creating a plan, a date was set for Foreman Bill McKeown and Installation Specialist Mark Sealy to complete the work. They injected PolyLevel® in numerous locations, slowly raising and leveling the concrete. PolyLevel® not only raises the concrete, but it also compacts the ground below it, helping to prevent future settlement. To seal the cracks, Bill & Mark used our NexusPro® Sealant. NexusPro® is resistant to UV light and extreme temperatures, creating a seal that not only looks great but lasts long too!
The homeowners are thrilled that they no longer have to worry about water draining towards their foundation and any tripping hazards. Their backyard looks great once again, and they can continue to take pride in their home and workmanship thanks to Canadian Concrete Leveling.
Old Carpet Hides Cracking on Front Porch in Orillia, Ontario
Hide it and forget it is sometimes an option we turn to. We throw something away in the storage room, or we use a rug to cover a small stain. It works, but it’s not the best way to remedy a situation.
A customer in Orillia, Ontario, had an old carpet on his front porch. It had been there for years, and when he finally removed it, he found cracking and sinking throughout his concrete porch. His neighbours had previously had work done by us, so he decided to give us a call too.
The homeowner met with Project Manager Paul Mendell, and a date was set for the repair. Foreman Kyle McKeown used our PolyLevel® system to lift and level the concrete, while also compressing the fill soils below. This prevents any further sinking or a washout down the road.
With the work complete, the customer is ecstatic about his front porch. He was impressed with the job done and has recommended us to family and friends.

Sinking Foundation Threatens Small Cottage in Severn Bridge, Ontario
The Trent Severn is one of the most famous waterways in Ontario. Many live directly on the water, while others use it as a channel to get to where they’re going.
The owner of a small cottage resort in Severn Bridge, Ontario, reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling after one of the small cottages had settled. The small building was built on a large concrete slab, and erosion from the nearby waterway had caused the entire building to lean.
Project Manager Paul Mendell met with the customer and inspected the cottage. Paul explained how our PolyLevel® System uses polyurethane injections to lift sinking concrete, and Foreman Kyle McKeown was tasked with the repair.
Kyle carefully injected our solution into dime-sized injection ports through the floor. He used a Zip-Level® tool to ensure the entire floor was lifting evenly. Once the repair was complete, we patched the holes with fresh concrete.
The customer is thrilled with the completed work. He is confident that the building is safe and sound, and he’s ready to sell it to the next eager cottager.
