Why Cracks Formed
Cracks form in concrete due to several factors such as soil erosion, heavy loads, poor installation, ground settlement.
Uneven Concrete
When voids form beneath the concrete, the slab can sink due to the lack of support. This can result in uneven surfaces, which can be both unsightly and hazardous. Addressing these issues promptly can prevent further damage and ensure the longevity of the concrete structure.
How We Repaired this Cracked Slab
We repaired the concrete slab by using our NexusPro Crack Repair Solution and PolyLevel System. First, we thoroughly cleaned the cracks and applied the NexusPro solution to seal them, preventing further water infiltration. Next, we used the PolyLevel System to address the sunken sections of the slab. This involved injecting a high-density polyurethane foam beneath the concrete, which expanded to lift and level the surface. The foam hardened quickly, raising the sunken sections back to their original position and providing a stable, even surface.
Repaired Sidewalk
The curing time for the NexusPro Crack Repair Solution and PolyLevel System is relatively quick. The NexusPro solution typically cures within 60 minutes, while the PolyLevel foam hardens within minutes after injection. This allows for minimal disruption and a fast return to normal use of the repaired area.
