Detroit, MI Driveway Lifted and Leveled in Preparation for New Garage

A Detroit, MI homeowner originally reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair due to water entering their basement during heavy rain events. A senior project manager named Jeremiah went out to the home for a free inspection, where he discussed concerns and goals with the homeowner. After receiving the estimate, they needed time to evaluate their options. Later that year, the homeowner reached out to HomeSpec again; however, they now wanted to get a estimate for concrete leveling as well. They were preparing to install a garage and wanted their driveway fixed in advance. Another project manager, Jim, visited the home to evaluate the driveway where they wanted to level the area. Once this inspection was complete, Jim spoke with the homeowner about both the waterproofing and concrete leveling repair plans. They agreed to move forward with both projects and scheduled crews to begin the work.

For the concrete leveling and repair portion of the work, there were three main steps. The first step was to cut through the joints of the concrete slabs and drill small holes through to the underside. This would allow for step two, to inject PolyLevel® Injection Foam and lift the concrete to an even level with the other slabs. Finally, the crew could seal the cracks and joints using NexusPro sealant. This combination of products would keep the driveway even and protect it from sinking further. The work was led by foremen named Domonique and Fred.
