Concrete Lifting Foam Injection

Level Home Foundation Repair has a complete division thats dedicated to lifting and leveling existing concrete. This can range from warehouse floors, interior concrete slab, driveways/sidewalks, porches/patios,etc.. Our Polymer has a wide variety of uses and not only lifts but fills any voids that may be under existing concrete. Deep Soil Injections allow us to re-compact a failing foundation pad. Polyurethane structural foam is also used in conjunction with our interior piering process. This allows us to lift and then fill the void created from the lift. Only the best!

Deep Injection Foam Lifting / Soil Stabilization 

Loose Soil Compaction 

When structures sink; its generally because of the soil undereath losing compaction and/or structural integrity. Foam Injection allows us to strengthen the soils under the strucure and solve the root cause of the settlement, in addition to lifting and supporting. Each project varies in application needed. Level Home is sure to get you lined out with the proper repair!

Residential & Commercial Applications

Voids and or loose compacted soils are a danger to any structure. Luckily the strength provided by the polymer used in our deep injection process is strong enough to lift and support a structure of any size or weight! The applications for concrete are endless no matter how large or small of project. Enviornment frendly and certified safe against drinking water!

Structural Foam Injection / Concrete Lifting & Leveling

 

There are cases where traditional Pier Systems are not the right solution. For these we and other structural repair experts suggest a structural polyurethane foam that can lift and level concrete of all types. This injection process can also stabilize underlying soils that may have lost compaction. Also is great for filling voids from plumbing leaks and or natural erosion under concrete slabs. This application is the prefered method for large warehouses who experience un-level / un-safe concrete floors, residential driveways, patios and, sidewalks. Just about any structure that sits on concrete and or the concrete itself! There are also great waterproofing applications; contact a Level Home Representative today to schedule a Free Informative Evaluation! No matter the situation we generally have a complete solution to your problem and will be able to communicate your available options to remedy!

Steel Sleeve Lock System

 

Pictured is the Steel Sleeve Lock System. The 12"-36" sections are made from 2.5" Schedule 40 Pipe, which allows us to achive proper pressure regardless of pier depth. This system can push as far as needed to ensure it reaches bedrock and/or refusal. Each piece is connected and has a 2.5" diameter allowing it to reach deeper depths than other systems. This system sits directly underneath the structure footing, preventing it from detaching like some tradtional steel piers. The Sleeve-Lock design comes with a 20 Year Transferable Warranty.

Helical Pier Systems (Helical Pier)

 

Helical Pier 

 

Helical Pier Systems are a great way to lift a structure without needing the weight to drive your pier into the ground. This method is done with a drive motor that turns the helical pier with auger at bottom end until reaching load bearing strata. This application is ideal for Retaining Walls, Bowing Basement Walls (Helical Tie-Backs), and/or General Structure Support. This method is generally preffered when dealing with extreme depths as it is gauged by the pressure of the resistence rather than the effects of the structure like some tradition resistance push piers.

Crawl-Space Pier Systems

 

 

Pictured below on the left is the system used in crawl-spaces. It consist of a 4x16x16 pre-casted pad that stops the pier from sinking with moisture. From there we build up with 8x8x16 solid block rated to withstand 4,000psi each. All piers are shimmed using 1/4" steel shims to ensure longevity. We specialize in crawl-space repair and leveling. There's no crawl-space too tight or too un-level for us to repair!!

Crawl-Space Encapsulation

Crawl-Space Encapsulations have many benefits for your home or structure. Having you crawl-space sealed will keep out un-wanted moisture and gas vapor from the ground. A majority of the air circulated through a home, comes through the crawl-space. By encapsulating the area and sealing it off, it helps defend from mold, moisture, vapor and cuts down on utilites by insulating the space rather than having it change with the seasons. The air quality of the structure will improve along with helping keep out unwanted pest and insects. Level Home Foundation Repair offers Vapor Barriers from 6-20 Mil. fiberglass re-inforced liners. Foundation Wall Insulation is an option with a termite resistant 2 1/2" insulation barrier offered, which will keep the space insulated with the home. We offer humidity solutions that pair-well with this service. Along with many drainage options for those whom just can't keep the water out! Crawl-Space moisture problems lead to a long list of foundation problems and wood damage. This is one of the most essential points of your home, don't let it go unprotected!

Crawl-Space Dirt Removal / Excavation

 

Older crawl-space homes are often in jeopardy of rotting support beams / joists due to lack of vertical spacing. This means that there is not enough room from the flooring support-structure to the ground, which doesn't allow the wood to breathe properly. This is also a common cause of Termite Damage. The repair process for these homes; is to remove around 24" of dirt from the entire crawl-space. This process creates both room to work and, space for the wood to breathe. Stops wood destroying organisms such as termites from easy access to the support structure as-well. Although it is an extensive process, it is a necessary one! This will dramatically increase the longevity of the structure.

Concrete Slab Removal / Replacement

 

Concrete slab removal and replacement, is a solution offered by Level Home for houses that the concrete slab is cracked beyond repair. Once the slab has multiple cracks running multiple directions, it can be almost impossible to lift and support evenly. Although this is a last resort, it is necessary on certain homes who's concrete is just too broken to be repair. The process is to first remove the existing broken slab. Once concrete slab is removed, the ground can be re-graded and compacted. Rebar will be tied into the existing slab and new concrete will be poured and leveled.

Bowing Foundation Wall Repair

 

Bowing/Leaning Structural Walls can create a large array of problems for the support system of any structure. This is usually caused by a combination of improper drainage and hydrostatic pressure from the surrounding soils. When the moisture doesn't have anywhere to go, it starts to swell in certain soil-types or back-fill from origional construction. This pressure pushes on basement/cellar walls and retaining walls until they start to break apart and push in. This can be elevated with a combination or drainage and interior bracing. The wall can be stabilized where it currently sits can potentially go back into place over time. Permanent braces are installed that support and push back. Carbon fiber strips can also be applied as an added measure to prevent the wall from being able to expand.
