Concrete Leveling Services in Chicago

Our team at Perma-Seal offers professional residential and commercial concrete leveling services in Chicago and Northwest Indiana.

How Settlement Causes Uneven Concrete

Concrete is often poured over recently backfilled soil around a home after construction. This loose soil settles over time, creating a void under the concrete. Another common occurrence is soil erosion under the slab. As water runs down through the cracks and joints in the concrete, it washes the soil out, creating voids. These voids cause your concrete to shift and settle, creating cracked, uneven concrete and dangerous tripping hazards.

Fill Voids and Quickly Level Uneven Concrete Around Your Property

Perma-Seal offers a simple, quick, and highly effective way to repair your sunken, cracked driveway, patio, pool deck, or sidewalk. Our concrete leveling solution is called PolyLevel®, a polyurethane foam designed for polyjacking. It is a custom formulation developed by Supportworks for a network of concrete contractors across North America. PolyLevel is a lightweight, strong, high-density polyurethane foam injected through small holes in your concrete slab. Initially, PolyLevel flows like water, filling even the smallest cracks and crevices in the soil. As the foam expands and hardens, it lifts the concrete slabs above it and compresses the soil around it, simultaneously creating a rigid structure to prevent further settlement. PolyLevel is waterproof, so it will never wash out and won’t degrade over time due to temperature extremes. It’s environmentally friendly, too, with no environmentally harmful chemical leaching. Best of all, PolyLevel cures quickly, allowing your concrete to be used normally on the same day. Neither mudjacking nor concrete replacement is that effective.

Why Choose To Level Your Concrete Now?

Concrete settlement problems only get worse with time.

Sinking concrete is easy to ignore because it typically develops and worsens slowly. But you should know that because it only gets worse with time, it’ll never be less expensive to fix than it is today.

Fixing Uneven Concrete Gives Peace of Mind, Quality of Life, And Property Value

Imagine your home when it was new. Picture everything working exactly the way it was designed. The original owner—maybe it was even you—didn’t have to worry that their largest investment was losing value due to concrete settlement issues. They didn’t lose sleep at night, wondering if a floor might buckle or a wall might cave in. These are all good reasons why it makes sense to schedule concrete leveling now rather than wait.

And, as we said earlier, you’ll have to address your concrete problems eventually. So, wouldn’t you rather fix them now, when it’s much less expensive?

Concrete Replacement Doesn’t Address the Real Problem

Maybe you’re putting off addressing your concrete problems because you think the only answer is a disruptive, noisy, messy concrete replacement. You picture old concrete being jackhammered out and hauled away. New concrete being poured and left to cure for up to a week or more. And, when it’s all said and done, the soil issues that caused your concrete to fail in the first place are still there lurking beneath the slabs. There is a better way –– to lift, level, and stabilize concrete permanently and have it ready for use within just 48 hours.

Why DIY Fixes Won’t Cut It

With a big-box DIY store around just about every corner, trying a quick fix for your cracked or sunken pavement is tempting. You could seal the cracks with cheap polyurethane caulk. (Of course, it will likely peel and crack over time.) You might even try some sort of driveway resurfacing kit to hide the flaws in your concrete, but that won’t address the soil underneath your slabs that’s causing the problem. Plus, let’s face it, a DIY surface never looks as good as one professionally installed. If you want professional results, you need to hire a professional team with experience, equipment, and a guarantee that you will do the job right.
