A garage and driveway in Troy, MI had cracked slabs of concrete that were no longer level. The homeowner reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to see if they could help raise the garage entrance slab and inquired about how much a estimate would be. A call center representative scheduled the homeowner for an inspection with Jeremiah, one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers. At that appointment, Jeremiah would be able to give a precise estimate.
On the day of the appointment, Jeremiah took detailed measurements and notes of the concrete in question. Other observations of the exterior of the home also helped him to dictate what the best course of action would be. He then discussed a repair plan with the homeowner so they could identify the price of the project. Jeremiah proposed lifting the concrete using PolyLevel® Injection Foam and then the cracks and joints would have NexusPro sealant applied. This addressed leveling the driveway and garage as the homeowner desired; however, Jeremiah also wanted to prevent more sinking from occurring in the future. He proposed installing a downspout extension so water would no longer wash over the driveway. The homeowner agreed to all of the ideas proposed and moved forward with the project.
