Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Detroit, MI had worked with HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair in 2022 to level part of their driveway. A couple of years later, they decided to reach out once more. Not only was the concrete driveway cracked but grass and other plant life had grown through those weak spots. Worse of all, the slabs in the driveway had started rocking when driven over. The homeowner was prepared to have the rest of the driveway repaired and welcomed a HomeSpec project manager to inspect the scope of the work.

The project manager explained that the work would be similar to the work done back in 2022. The crew would clear away the plant life and then level the concrete using PolyLevel® Injection Foam. Once the driveway was flat and even, then the crew would seal the cracks using NexusPro sealant. The homeowner agreed to this plan and scheduled a PolyLevel foreman and team to come out to the house. This project was completed by Domonique and his team. The homeowner was happy with the final results!

A Detroit, MI homeowner originally reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair due to water entering their basement during heavy rain events. A senior project manager named Jeremiah went out to the home for a free inspection, where he discussed concerns and goals with the homeowner. After receiving the quote, they needed time to evaluate their options. Later that year, the homeowner reached out to HomeSpec again; however, they now wanted to get a quote for concrete leveling as well. They were preparing to install a garage and wanted their driveway fixed in advance. Another project manager, Jim, visited the home to evaluate the driveway where they wanted to level the area. Once this inspection was complete, Jim spoke with the homeowner about both the waterproofing and concrete leveling repair plans. They agreed to move forward with both projects and scheduled crews to begin the work.

For the concrete leveling and repair portion of the work, there were three main steps. The first step was to cut through the joints of the concrete slabs and drill small holes through to the underside. This would allow for step two, to inject PolyLevel® Injection Foam and lift the concrete to an even level with the other slabs. Finally, the crew could seal the cracks and joints using NexusPro sealant. This combination of products would keep the driveway even and protect it from sinking further. The work was led by foremen named Domonique and Fred.

This homeowner contacted HomeSpec to get his concrete driveway repaired after putting it off for many years. Several slabs were sunken and cracked, causing a tripping hazard. He needed a permanent solution. 

Our team used PolyLevel to solve this problem. We injected an expanding 2-part polymer rigid foam under the concrete slabs to raise and level them by filling in gaps caused by soil shrinkage and washout. Then we sealed all of the cracks and joints with our NexusPro sealant. Then the concrete was sealed with our SealantPro to protect and preserve it. This prevents discoloration, flaking, and cracking over time. The homeowner was so happy with how his driveway transformed! 

These Southfield, MI homeowners were concerned about their sidewalk and driveway beginning to sink. Because of this sinking, they experienced pooling water which turns into a sheet of ice during the winter months. This couple has worked with HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair in the past. The previous year, they had installed a sump pump in their home to address worries of water entering their basement. Their concern became about the pooling water overworking the sump pump they had installed. So, they called HomeSpec back out to see what could be done.

Elon, one of HomeSpec’s project managers, went out to the home and inspected all of the concrete on the property. He shared a plan with the couple to lift and protect the sidewalk and driveway. To evenly lift the concrete, a skilled foreman and their crew would use PolyLevel® Injection Foam. Then, they would seal the joints using NexusPro sealant. Lastly, they would apply SealantPro, a protective layer, to prevent water, oil, and gasoline from damaging the concrete. Additional suggestions included installing TrenchDrain™ Grated Draining Pipe. The homeowners agreed to these plans and scheduled HomeSpec to do the work. The teams were led by the foremen named Fred and Rick.

A homeowner in Warren, MI has lived in their house for the last 20 years. Throughout that time, some of the concrete slabs from their driveway and patio have been sinking and moving. They suspect this is due to the weight of having a trailer parked there. The homeowner knew they wanted to make sure their garage, driveway, and patio were even. So, they reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free inspection and estimate. 

Yann, a project manager for HomeSpec went out to the Warren, MI household and took a detailed account of the concrete throughout the property. He shared with the homeowner that the best solution for lifting the concrete slabs would be to use PolyLevel® Injection Foam. After the area was leveled then the PolyLevel foreman would seal the joints using NexusPro sealant. This would protect the driveway and patio from the elements and provide a clean aesthetic. The homeowner agreed to this plan and scheduled a crew to install the products. The team was led by a foreman named Fred. Once the crew was done, they made sure the homeowner was happy with the final result.
