Sinking Concrete Patio Gets Lifted in Maple Grove, MN

A homeowner from Maple Grove, MN, got in touch with us when she noticed that the concrete patio leading to her backyard was slowly sinking away from the door frame, creating a trip hazard. Not wanting the issue to worsen, she began the search for a company that could fix the issue. When she came across our website, she decided to claim her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist headed out to the home. 

When our Design Specialist arrived, she got right to work assessing the sinking patio. When she completed her inspection, she met with the homeowner to deliver her recommendations. She informed her that American Waterworks could address the sinking patio using our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion and slowly lift the sinking concrete back to it's desired location. Our Design Specialist finished by saying that once the patio was lifted, our team would install our NexusPro. Our NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that gets applied to all cracks and joints in the newly lifted concrete and works to prevent any moisture from penetrating the slab, compromising the vulnerable soil below. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan and the work was scheduled for some time later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Ryan T, and his team made quick work of the lift and seal. Now our customer can enjoy her backyard without worries of trip hazards!
