Concrete Repair Photo Album: Cracked Concrete Patio Solutions in Fredonia, KY
The homeowners were tired of seeing their home's value decrease right in front of their eyes, so they wanted to fix every eyesore starting with the large crack in front of their steps. They called us, Frontier Basement Systems, to come and inspect their home. These cracks don't seem like a very big problem, but they are sneaky! Rainwater seeps in and under the concrete slab, softening the soil under and causing the perfect place for the heavy slabs to sink and settle in at. This is what caused the first long crack as well as a few other foundation issues you'll see.We first had to lift the sunken concrete slabs, so they were all level with each other. They injected PolyLevel foam by boring small (penny sized) holes in the slab. After the void is filled, the expanding properties of the polyurethane foam allows for an accurate lift and leveling of the slab.Our crew then sealed all of the cracks with NexusPro Joint Sealant. NexusPro is 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. The homeowners now have their largest and unsightly crack sealed!We love helping homeowners just like these ones find the perfect products for their home.Cracks only get worse over time, so call us today for your FREE inspection and estimate!
Large Unsightly Crack
Do you know have a large crack that is bringing down your home's value? We have a solution!
Sinking Porch Slab
Cracks in between your home and porch?? This is not a good sign! This Porch is sinking and this means more unsightly cracks will appear if the porch is not lifted with PolyLevel.
The PolyLevel method for lifting and stabilizing concrete slabs is to inject structural polyurethane foam under the sunken section of concrete. The force of the expanding foam will fill all voids and consolidate weak soils. When the voids are filled, the upward pressure of any additional foam will raise the slab to its original level position.
NexusPro Sealant
NexusPro is 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.
Future Issues
If cracks go unsealed, more water can infiltrate the ground underneath, cause many porch stairwells to sink and become a major safety hazard.
