The weakest spots in a foundation are in areas where its open such as windows and doorways. When cracks form in one of these areas, its a sign your foundation is shifting and settling. In this homeowners situation we recommended a PowerBrace System to stabilization.
The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority had settlement issues on two rail lines at a road crossing in Ambler, Pennsylvania for several years. Previous attempts to lift settled rail slabs with mudjacking were not precise and were prone to washouts over time. They decided to contact Quality 1st to learn more about PolyLEVEL. The PolyLEVEL System is a two-part urethane that, when combined, expands into a waterproof, rigid foam that is used to fill voids, stabilize slabs, and lift concrete. The PolyLEVEL installation began by drilling penny-sized injection holes into the concrete slab. Next, using specialized equipment, approximately 500 hundred pounds of PolyLEVEL was injected below the slab through 96 injection areas. The slab was raised to its original elevation and cars as well as pedestrians were able to walk and drive on the concrete just minutes after installation.
Quality 1st had the opportunity to lift sunken and settled concrete at the train tracks in Ambler, Pennsylvania using the PolyLEVEL Polyurethane Injection System.
