Concrete is a durable and versatile material, but over time, it can sink, crack, or become uneven due to various factors like soil erosion, water damage, or poor installation. When this happens, you have two main options: replace the concrete or level it. At Concrete Polyfix, we specialize in leveling sunken concrete using polyfoam, a cost-effective and efficient solution. In this blog, we’ll explore why you should opt for concrete leveling instead of replacement.
Cost-Effectiveness
Replacing concrete is an expensive endeavor. The process involves removing the old concrete, preparing the site, and pouring new concrete. This not only costs more in materials but also in labor. On the other hand, leveling concrete with polyfoam is significantly cheaper. The material costs are lower, and the process is less labor-intensive, saving you money in the long run.
Time-Saving
Concrete replacement is a time-consuming process that can take days or even weeks to complete, depending on the size of the area. This means more inconvenience and disruption to your daily life. Concrete leveling with polyfoam, however, can be done in a matter of hours, allowing you to use the area almost immediately.
Eco-Friendly
When you replace concrete, the old material often ends up in a landfill, contributing to environmental degradation. Leveling with polyfoam is an eco-friendly option as it utilizes the existing concrete, reducing waste and conserving resources.
Longevity and Durability
Polyfoam is a high-density material that not only lifts the concrete but also stabilizes the soil underneath. This ensures that the concrete remains level and intact for a longer period, reducing the need for future repairs.
No Mudjacking
It’s worth noting that we do not offer mudjacking services, which involve pumping a mixture of water, soil, and cement under the concrete slab. This method is less reliable and can add significant weight to the soil, potentially leading to further sinking. Polyfoam is a lightweight yet sturdy material that provides a more reliable and long-lasting solution.
Leveling your sunken concrete with polyfoam offers numerous advantages over replacement, including cost-effectiveness, time-saving, eco-friendliness, and durability. Don’t let sunken or uneven concrete be a stumbling block in your property’s aesthetics and functionality. Choose the smart, efficient, and economical solution.
