Before & After Photos

A garage and driveway in Troy, MI had cracked slabs of concrete that were no longer level. The homeowner reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to see if they could help raise the garage entrance slab and inquired about how much a quote would be. A call center representative scheduled the homeowner for an inspection with Jeremiah, one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers. At that appointment, Jeremiah would be able to give a precise quote.

On the day of the appointment, Jeremiah took detailed measurements and notes of the concrete in question. Other observations of the exterior of the home also helped him to dictate what the best course of action would be. He then discussed a repair plan with the homeowner so they could identify the price of the project. Jeremiah proposed lifting the concrete using PolyLevel® Injection Foam and then the cracks and joints would have NexusPro sealant applied. This addressed leveling the driveway and garage as the homeowner desired; however, Jeremiah also wanted to prevent more sinking from occurring in the future. He proposed installing a downspout extension so water would no longer wash over the driveway. The homeowner agreed to all of the ideas proposed and moved forward with the project.

A Macomb, MI homeowner contacted HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair with concerns about their sump pump. HomeSpec sent one of their project managers, Sean, to the home. Upon arriving, he noticed that there were large gaps in the driveway. Certain spots had even been invaded by grass. 

Sean spoke with the homeowner about their concerns and went on to provide a free inspection. After investigating the sump pump in the basement floor he returned to the homeowner to discuss a repair plan. Sean, of course, talked about the areas the homeowner was concerned about but also brought up the driveway. Sean recommended installing a new sump pump as well as filling the concrete cracks and joints with NexusPro sealant to protect the driveway. The homeowner agreed with both of these recommendations and scheduled a team for the repairs. A foreman named Domonique led the charge and the homeowner was happy with the crew’s hard work!

The porch on this Hartland home was sinking and pulling away from the foundation - and it was quite unsightly. So the homeowners contacted the professionals here at HomeSpec. 

Thankfully, our PolyLevel system quickly and permanently solves problems like this. The PolyLevel foam just had to be injected underneath the concrete, then it expanded and filled in the gaps caused by soil erosion and shrinkage. As it expanded, the porch was raised up back into its original position. 

These homeowners contacted HomeSpec to have their concrete garage floor repaired - it was sinking so bad that there were large gaps between the floor and the wall. It was quite unsightly!

Our crew used PolyLevel to permanently raise the slabs back into place. We also sealed all of the joints with our NexusPro joint sealant - leaving the garage floor looking brand new. The sealant protects the concrete from soil compaction and washout to prevent more sinking! See more photos here.

This homeowner contacted HomeSpec because the walkway leading to their house was very uneven - causing tripping hazards. The porch was also cracked and sinking and needed to be repaired. 

Our team solved this issue permanently with our PolyLevel system. Through a dime-sized hole, we injected a polyurethane foam underneath the concrete. As it expanded, the slabs were lifted up back into place. The joints and cracks were then sealed with our strong silicone-based sealant. And the walkway was even once more!
