Concrete Repair Photo Album: Uneven Royal Oak, MI Sidewalks Leveled by HomeSpec
A Royal Oak, MI resident was worried about the tripping hazards in the sidewalk leading to their home and the public sidewalk in front of it. They were also concerned that the city might consider replacement as the only option, which would be costly if they deemed the homeowner responsible. Instead of jumping right to replacing the sidewalks, the homeowner decided to research other options. They learned that HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair had an alternative process and reached out to schedule a free inspection.
Benjamin, one of HomeSpec’s project managers, arrived at the house and spoke with the homeowner. He then investigated the sidewalks, taking measurements and notes to accurately plan the repairs. Afterward, Benjamin spoke with the homeowner again and discussed the best strategy to fix the paths. He shared that HomeSpec uses PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift the concrete slabs until they are level and NexusPro sealant on all of the cracks and joints. The homeowner decided this was a better route to pursue than replacing entire sections of the sidewalk and proceeded with the project. A foreman specializing in PolyLevel® repairs led a team and completed the application.
