Photo Album: Stabilizing Sinking Concrete Pad in Melbourne Beach, Florida
Mike in Melbourne Beach, Florida, sought assistance from LRE Foundation Repair to repair the concrete pad under his home's AC. A large crack had formed in the middle, and the pad was detaching from the side of the house. After inspecting the concrete, it was found that the soil underneath had washed away, causing the pad to sink. LRE used PolyLevel to lift and stabilize the concrete beneath the pad and applied NexusPro to seal the crack, preventing water from getting underneath and causing further soil washout. Now, Mike's concrete is repaired and stable, and he doesn't have to worry about it sinking in the future.
Significant Cracking
Soil washout has caused part of the concrete to sink, creating a large crack down the middle of the pad.
Wall Separation
The border wall on the concrete pad has detached from the adjacent wall of the home due to the sinking of the concrete.
A Clear Divide

PolyLevel and NexusPro Solutions
PolyLevel has been injected under the concrete to raise and level the pad, and NexusPro has been applied to seal the crack, protecting against water seeping below and preventing further soil washout.
