Photo Album: Cracked Driveway Repair in Dunedin, FL
When a homeowner in Dunedin, Florida, noticed his driveway sinking and cracking, he knew it was time to seek professional help. He reached out to LRE Foundation Repair, concerned about both the stability and appearance of his driveway. Our team quickly scheduled an inspection, and one of our Design Specialists assessed the situation. The sinking was caused by settling ground beneath the driveway, with the cracks being a result of this underlying issue. To address the problem, we recommended a three-part solution: PolyLevel to lift and stabilize the driveway, NexusPro to seal the cracks, and DecoShield to protect and enhance the entire surface. First, we used PolyLevel to lift the driveway back to its original level. This process provides immediate results and is less invasive than traditional methods. Next, we applied NexusPro to seal the cracks and prevent further damage. Finally, we applied DecoShield, which not only sealed and protected the driveway but also gave it a fresh, uniform look. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and the efficiency of our team, enjoying a stable, attractive driveway that will last for years to come.
Cracked and Sinking Driveway
This driveway's issues are quite common in Florida as shifting and eroded soils make way for slabs to start cracking.
Drilled Holes Through Concrete Driveway
The first step in the PolyLevel process is to drill tiny holes through the concrete slab where the product will be applied.
Application in Progress
Once all holes are in place, a small hand tool is used to inject the expanding polyurethane foam into each one. This material flows easily beneath the surface filling voids, stabilizing loose soils, and ultimately achieving the desired lift where needed.
Concrete Driveway Sealed and Protected
After the PolyLevel application is completed, we filled in all cracks with our NexusPro silicone-based sealer to prevent future damage. DecoShield is then applied to the whole surface of the drive to further add to the protection as well as give this drive a fresh, clean look for years to come.
