How It's Raised
Drill
Injection holes are strategically drilled around the areas where the concrete is sunken and requires lifting.
Pump
Polyurethane foam is injected through the holes. It expands to fill the space underneath the concrete slab, using the slab itself to drive the foam into the crevices, lifting concrete back to original position.
Patch
Once the concrete is stabilized and lifted to the proper protocol, the injection holes are filled with new cement, allowing you to use your surface immediately.
Important Reasons to Raise Your Slab
- Safety: Trip hazards can harm you and your family and leaves your property vulnerable to unwanted liability.
- Home Value: Trying to sell your home? First appearance is everything to a home buyer.
- Cost: You can raise your concrete for less than half the price of replacing the concrete slab.
- Structural Damage: When a concrete slab settles, doors and windows begin to stick and structures connected to the slab start to settle and crack.
- Time: Your slab problem will only worsen in time, fix it now and avoid the hassle later. Raising concrete with polyurethane foam often only takes a few hours and the structure is ready and the structure is ready immediately upon completion.
- Water Damage: Water follows the path of least resistance. A settled or sunken driveway may end up costing a home owner considerable money in foundation repairs over time.
- Appearance: Eye sores and additional structural cracks can be the result of unleveled concrete.
- Be Green: By raising your concrete, you are saving your current slab from being torn out and deposited in a landfill.
Benefits of Polyurethane Foam
- Cost Effective: Concrete raising is typically about half the cost of replacing the same concrete.
- Lightweight: This material will never lose its density, is permanent and weighs only 2 lbs per cubic foot. Comparatively, traditional mudjacking weighs an average of 100 lbs per cubic foot.
- Time: Ready to use immediately. You can drive, walk, or play on it the same day.
- Green: HMI foam is the top of the line eco friendly material. Every time concrete is raised, we are saving concrete slabs from landfills by raising versus replacing concrete!
- Clean Work Environment: No concrete or grout splatter and no wash down needed. No heavy equipment will drive through your lawn and disrupt your landscape.
- Water Damage: Water follows the path of least resistance. A settled or sunken driveway may end up costing a home owner considerable money in foundation repairs over time.
- Smaller Holes: Polyurethane concrete raising drills a nearly invisible 5/8 inch hole and the process calls for considerably fewer holes than traditional mudjacking; Minimal patchwork needed.
Testimonials
We are pleased with the Troyer Concrete Solution approach that Lowell Troyer performed on our home’s back patio concrete slab.
We had major cracks across the length of the slab as a result of the ground drying and dropping over time. This caused the front portion of slab to tilt lower and air pockets to form between the bottom of the slab and the current ground level.
He was able to raise the affected sections of slab to level the overall slab front. He also added polyfoam across other sections of the slab to fill in air pockets and thereby strengthen the overall slab.
We feel this work will improve the longevity of our home’s back patio concrete slab.
Troyer Concrete did an excellent job for us, and I highly recommend their services. Great people with great quality workmanship!
I had Troyer Concrete Solution work on my sloping walk way and steps and cracks in the patio. They did an amazing job! No more tripping hazards. Prompt, courteous and professional.
