Photo Album: Injection Technology Lifts and Levels Concrete in Delhi, IA
Voids under concrete can cause slabs to sink, leaving tripping hazards and ugly appearance, and can even cause the slabs to crack. MidAmerica Basement Systems offers an injection technology to lift and level sunken and cracked concrete. PolyLevel uses modern knowledge and technology similar to mud jacking. Small holes, roughly the size of a dime, are drilled into the concrete where PolyLevel will be injected. Voids then become filled and the polyurethane expands, lifting and stabilizing the slabs, with the most accurate precision. NexusPro Joint Sealant is than placed along all cracks, sealing them and helping prevent future void. Tripping hazards are eliminated, and the area looks just like the day it was poured, with unnoticeable injection-holes.
