Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “PolyLevel: The Quick and Easy Way to Fix Sunken Concrete”.
Poly level concrete slabs in patios, sidewalks and driveways often sink into the ground due to soil erosion and settlement. Although this is certainly not a beautiful sight to behold, the incident can also be very dangerous and a safety hazard as well. There is always a threat of trip Hazard as water tends to pool on sunken surfaces and unleveled Floors Foundation. Support Works have come up with the most advanced alternative to Mud Jacking, as we know it as the polylevel system to repair sinking concrete slabs. The state-of-the-art approach of the polylevel system is the best method. It is actually the process of mudjacking carried out with the most advanced technology.
Poly level uses high density polyurethane specially engineered for this purpose, rather than the use of conventional mix of mud and cement to raise the slab. There are various advantages of using polylevel over conventional Mud Jacking. It raises the slab without adding a lot of weight to it. As poly level is lighter than mud, cement mixes generally four pounds per cubic yard as compared to concrete’s 120 pounds.
It completely fills the cavity and safely raises a slab to the desired level, as the expanding nature of the material allows it to penetrate crevices in the soil and poly level is made with recycled materials and is thus environmentally friendly as well. Using polylevel saves time as well as it can be installed in just one day. Smaller penny-sized holes can be drilled in the concrete and you can walk or drive over the slab, nearly five minutes after installation.
This revolutionary product can also be used in pipeline trenching work and even in Rocky uneven or steeply inclined terrain. Moreover, to construct trench Breakers sandbags have traditionally been used, but polylevel spray foam can also do this work faster, more affordably and with Superior results. Spray foam provides a cushioning effect as it expands to fill voids around exposed pipe apart from that, poly level is also long lasting and the cured SPF is stable, strong and waterproof as well. .
