This property in Sykesville had a porch that had sunken and was uneven with large cracks.
Our System Designer went out and determined that our PolyLevel Injection System would be able to fix this problem.
The foreman went out and strategically drilled holes in the brick where injection ports were installed. Polyurethane foam is injected beneath the brick to fill voids and raise the slab. The holes and control joints are then sealed. NexusPro Crack Repair was used to seal all cracks and joints.
In West Friendship, a homeowner faced the challenge of sinking concrete, a common issue that can lead to uneven surfaces and potential safety risks. As seen in the 'before' photo, the slab had noticeably sunken, disrupting the aesthetics and function of the home’s exterior. Our team at Fortress Foundation Solutions employed the PolyLevel® system to effectively stabilize, lift, and level the concrete. By injecting high-strength polyurethane foam into strategically drilled pea-sized holes, we filled the underlying voids and precisely lifted the slab, as shown in the 'after' photo.
A homeowner near West Friendship, MD, had watched his front porch sink lower and lower over the last 10 years. Growing more concerned, he called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate.

Ready to go ahead, the PolyLevel crew was soon on their way to his home. They were able to lift and level his porch three inches, back to its original height.
