Before Repair:
In Georgetown, Indiana, the Gray family adores their charming home. They often enjoy morning coffees on their inviting concrete porch. However, the family became increasingly concerned as the porch began shifting away from their house. This unsettling shift exposed the crawl space and foundation to moisture, posing a threat to the structural integrity of their home. Not only was this a potential hazard, but it also diminished the home’s aesthetic appeal and market value. The homeowner realized that a concrete porch repair was crucial to maintaining their home’s safety and beauty.
After Repair:
Determined to restore their porch and protect the home, the Gray family contacted TFS. The Foundation Specialists are known for our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. From the first meeting, our team displayed professionalism and clarity. Our design specialist designed a detailed repair plan tailored to the home’s needs. We communicated every step of the process, ensuring the homeowner felt comfortable and informed about the work, price, and timeline.
The repair involved using PolyLevel, a state-of-the-art technique for lifting and leveling concrete. This method injects high-density polyurethane foam beneath the sunken concrete, raising it back to its original height. After the repair, our team sealed the concrete porch with Sealent Pro to permanently protect concrete from dirt, water, and other damage. This crack between the porch and the house was repaired seamlessly, eliminating any gaps that allowed moisture intrusion. The homeowner decided to encapsulate and dehumidify their crawlspace to mitigate the excess moisture under their home.
