Comprehensive Concrete Lifting Services in Highlands Ranch, CO
In Highlands Ranch, CO, a homeowner contacted Ram Jack Colorado to address uneven settlement issues in their driveway. The settlement had caused significant unevenness near the threshold, creating a potential hazard and an eyesore. The customer opted for a comprehensive polyfoam injection solution to lift the affected area, covering approximately 200 square feet of the driveway. Additionally, joint sealants and backer rods were applied to prevent water infiltration beneath the slabs.
Efficient Polyfoam Injection and Concrete Sealing by Ram Jack Colorado
The Ram Jack Colorado team successfully lifted the driveway back to its original elevation using advanced polyfoam injection techniques. This process involved injecting a specially formulated polyurethane foam under the slabs, which expands to fill voids and create the pressure needed to lift and recover the settlement. The polyfoam cures or hardens within a few minutes stabilizing the treated area. After lifting, the crew applied a concrete joint sealer topped with fine sand to protect the sealant from UV rays, ensuring long-lasting durability. The entire project, including patching the holes and finishing the sealants, was completed in about an hour, demonstrating the efficiency and expertise of the crew.
Long-Term Solutions and Preventative Measures for Driveway Stability
The project not only restored the driveway’s original elevation but also enhanced its overall stability and appearance. To minimize the risk of future settlement, the team recommended extending the downspouts to discharge rainwater and snowmelt away from the driveway. This preventive measure aims to reduce water seepage under the slabs, ensuring the longevity of the repair. The successful completion of this project underscores Ram Jack Colorado’s commitment to providing effective and lasting concrete lifting solutions for homeowners.
