Do you have a concrete slab that is sinking or uneven? One potential solution is to use polyurethane foam lifting or undersealing to stabilize the concrete and lift it back to its original position. Sunbelt Sealing has spent decades in the industry of concrete and asphalt repair and reconstruction services. Our expertise is unrivaled and we have consistently delivered exceptional results for businesses and infrastructure agencies across the South who have concrete and asphalt repair needs.
What Is Polyurethane Foam Lifting?
This process is more commonly known as polyjacking or foam jacking and is a repair method used for concrete leveling. Sunbelt Sealing uses expanding polyurethane foam to lift and stabilize sunken or uneven concrete slabs. We inject the foam under the slab through small drilled holes which then expands as it fills the voids, lifting the concrete slab back into place as it expands. This process is typically done when sinking or settling concrete occurs due to soil erosion, poor compaction, during grading, or changes in moisture in the soil. The foam fills voids and compact the soil, creating a durable, long lasting solution.
Common Applications for Polyurethane Lifting and Undersealing
Undersealing and polyurethane lifting is used in a wide range of applications designed to offer an affordable and simple solution to concrete slab issues.
- Residential foundations: Over time, the foundations of homes often settle, leading to a sinking foundation, as evidenced by uneven floors, and cracked walls or ceilings. Polyurethane lifting is a viable and affordable solution for these situations, and is a much more lasting and cost-effective method rather than a full foundation replacement.
- Infrastructure projects: Roads, bridges, airport, runways, sidewalks, and other infrastructure often suffers from soil compaction, erosion, and settlement issues. Undersealing is a way to provide a quick and reliable solution to stabilize these structures and keep everyone safe.
- Utility maintenance: Pipelines, electrical installations, and other utility infrastructure can benefit from polyurethane lifting to prevent ground movement that potentially causes service destruction and costly repairs.
- Commercial and industrial facilities: Commercial buildings often lead to uneven surfaces due to heavy usage and weight bearing loads that cause the flooring to sink or crack. Warehouses, factories, and other commercial structures can benefit from polyurethane lifting to maintain even flooring and enhance safety.
