Concrete Repair Photo Album: Canton, MI Concrete Patio Repaired in Preparation for Outdoor Furniture
A homeowner in Canton, MI wanted to set up a gazebo on their patio. Unfortunately, the concrete slabs were cracked and sinking. If they were to set up the gazebo with the patio in its current condition, then they would be trying to relax in an unstable structure. They decided to have one of HomeSpec’s project managers, Bill, provide a free inspection to see what could be done to make their outdoor space more enjoyable.
Bill spoke with the homeowner about their goals and was shown the concerning area. He took measurements to see the height differences between sections of concrete that were sinking. While making observations about the patio, Bill brainstormed repair options. He proposed a repair plan to the homeowner where the HomeSpec team would lift the sunken sections with PolyLevel® Injection Foam, seal cracks with NexusPro sealant, and apply a concrete protection system to fight against stains and water damage. The homeowner agreed with this plan and later watched it become a reality. The crew that repaired this patio was led by a foreman who specializes in concrete lifting and leveling, Fred.
