Concrete Services Before & After Photos

In Polo, Illinois, uneven concrete slabs transformed a charming home courtyard into a dangerous tripping hazard. Unsealed joints had allowed rainwater to penetrate the subbase over time, washing away the underlying soil and causing the heavy concrete to sink unevenly.

To resolve the hazard without tearing up the flatwork, System Design Specialist Andrew Sagar evaluated the space and customized a targeted repair plan using PolyLevel® Concrete Leveling and NexusPro® Joint Sealant through MidAmerica Basement Systems.

Foreman Ricky Sigala and crew member Jaylen arrived on-site to execute the restoration. The team drilled dime-sized injection ports through the sunken slabs and pumped high-density PolyLevel foam into the underlying subgrade. As the geopolymer expanded, it filled empty void spaces, compacted loose supporting soil, and lifted the heavy concrete slabs precisely back to a level, stable plane.

Once alignment was restored, Ricky and Jaylen sealed all joints and cracks using NexusPro Joint Sealant. This durable, UV-resistant sealant prevents future rainwater from washing away the supporting soil beneath the courtyard. After patching the small injection ports, the crew left behind a smooth, safe, and beautifully restored space ready for foot traffic.

In Freeport, IL, a homeowner faced uneven, hazardous concrete around their property, making their outdoor space unsafe. As you can see in the before photo, the concrete had settled, creating problematic trip hazards. Our team at MidAmerica Basement Systems stepped in to solve the issue. Using PolyLevel, we lifted and leveled the slabs, restoring them to their proper elevation. Then, we applied NexusPro Joint Sealant to seal the joints and protect against further water damage. In the after photo, you'll see the transformed, smooth, and secure concrete, expertly treated to guard against the elements. 

In Walnut, IL, one homeowner noticed their concrete was settling around the pool, risking both the pool liner and safety of swimmers. As decades-old experts in concrete repair, we stepped in to solve the problem. We utilized our PolyLevel system, lifting and stabilizing the concrete slabs with precision. Then we used NexusPro Joint Sealant, blocking out any water to add longevity and durability. After our team's solution, the concrete was not just safe but prepared to endure the elements. 

A homeowner in Dubuque, IA, was tired of battling cracked, uneven concrete every time the snow fell. Seeking a solution for easier shoveling and a safer walkway, they called in the experts.

Our salesman, Shawn Conaway, met with the homeowner to design a game plan that would stand up to the brutal Iowa winters. Once the strategy was set, Justin Maddox and his crew took over as the boots on the ground. Under Justin’s expert supervision as foreman, the team installed NexusPro® Joint Sealant.

Unlike standard polyurethane sealants, NexusPro® is engineered to lock out moisture and remain flexible even when the Midwest temperatures plummet. As you can see in the "after" shot, the transformation is more than just a glow-up; it’s a hazard-free zone where snow shovels can glide and kids can walk without the risk of a skid.

Notice in the before photo, the sidewalk leading to this Davis, IL home had settled unevenly, creating potential trip hazards. With our trusted polyurethane solutions, we improved the path by using the PolyLevel system. It worked by injecting high-strength foam through small holes to lift and stabilize the concrete slabs effectively. The after photo shows how NexusPro joints sealant provided a reliable seal against water, ensuring the stability of the repair and enhancing the walkways' appearance with its advanced weather-resistant properties.
