3-Part Concrete Protection System

The concrete around our homes can tend to sink, crack, break, crumble at the surface, and even split.  But do you know why one of the strongest and most durable materials can never stand the test of time? It's because concrete is only as good as the soil it's built on.  If the soil doesn't have the load-bearing capacity it needs, it will compact and settle, causing stress on the concrete above.  Once the concrete cracks or breaks, it's vulnerable to water infiltrating and washing the soil out, only making matters worse.  This creates large voids or empty spaces under the concrete that can do serious damage.  In these cases, there are two options; replace it or repair it. 

 

Replacing it would require tearing out all the concrete that's been affected and potentially dealing with the same problems in the future.  This process is extremely invasive, costly, and sometimes takes over a week before fully functional.  Or, for a fraction of the cost, repair and restore the concrete to a state that is more than capable of withstanding the elements.  Our three concrete repair products that make up our Concrete Protection System work together to provide the best possible permanent restoration.  

 

For sunken and uneven areas, PolyLevel concrete lifting foam is inserted beneath the slab to raise and level the surface to its original position.  It is the quickest and most effective way to lift and stabilize any uneven material.  PolyLevel is made of a lightweight yet strong, high-density polyurethane foam that supports the concrete without adding any additional stress to the soil. It's even waterproof to help prevent any washout that may have originally caused the problem in the first place.  Installation is often completed within a few hours and done by drilling penny-sized holes into the surface, and then the concrete lifting foam is injected into the empty space below.  Therefore, there is very little disturbance to the existing concrete and it's even environmentally friendly.

Water tends to find its way through any cracks in concrete and down into the soil, but NexusPro joint sealant is the ultimate barrier for any moisture vulnerability.  It is applied to all cracks and joints to prevent any water infiltration, and even the most severe weather will not break its structure.  It's a UV-resistant and highly flexible material that's proven to last over two decades. In addition to the functionality of NexusPro, it drastically enhances the appearance of the concrete to give it a healthy and restored look.

The final of the three products guarantees that the curb appeal of the concrete will be permanent.  SealantPro is the first line of defense against intruders such as water, chemicals, oil, fertilizers, etc., that cause eye-aching surface damage.  SealantPro is innovative and effective because it penetrates the concrete to form a chemical bond deep within.  With just one spray-on application, a clear and permanent barrier is formed to extend the concrete's lifespan.  Plus, this product won't wash away or weaken over time, and never needs to be reapplied.

Cracked, broken, or uneven concrete can be harmful to the home's foundation, become a potential tripping hazard, and even decrease its value.  Whether these three products are used separately or all together as a complete Concrete Protection System, they are guaranteed to restore peace of mind and enhance the property's value.  For a fraction of the cost of replacing, your concrete could be permanently restored with all the qualities it needs to stand the test of time.  Our concrete lifting foam, joint sealant, and topcoat sealer are industry-changing solutions that can solve all of your concrete needs.
