Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Utah began noticing uneven concrete surfaces around their property. Their garage floor had developed multiple cracks, and certain areas had sunk by several inches, making it difficult to close the garage door properly. The concrete carport had also dropped significantly, creating a visible slope that not only looked bad but also posed a safety risk.

These issues were more than just cosmetic. The homeowner was concerned about further deterioration, especially with Utah’s fluctuating weather conditions. They knew that ignoring the problem could lead to more severe structural issues and expensive future repairs.

Exploring Repair Options

Initially, the homeowner considered quick DIY fixes. They looked into caulking the cracks themselves but found that store-bought sealants tend to dry out, crack, and require frequent reapplications. They also researched mudjacking, a traditional method for lifting sunken slabs. However, after learning that mudjacking materials can erode over time, they realized it wasn’t the most reliable long-term solution.

Determined to find a permanent fix, the homeowner started searching for concrete repair specialists with a track record of successful, lasting repairs.

Why They Chose Davenport Foundation Repair

After reading positive customer reviews, the homeowner reached out to Davenport Foundation Repair for a professional assessment. The company’s free inspection process and reputation for using advanced repair methods made them stand out from other contractors.

When the Davenport team arrived, they conducted a detailed evaluation and identified the root cause: the soil beneath the concrete had shifted and compacted unevenly, leading to sinking and cracking. Rather than offering a temporary patch, Davenport recommended a comprehensive solution that would:

✅ Lift and stabilize the sunken slabs using PolyLevel® Injection Foam
✅ Seal cracks permanently with NexusPro, preventing moisture infiltration and future deterioration

The homeowner was impressed by Davenport’s expertise and commitment to quality, and they decided to move forward with the repairs.

The Repair Process

Step 1: Concrete Lifting with PolyLevel®

• The crew drilled small, strategic holes into the affected slabs.
• PolyLevel® foam was injected underneath, expanding to fill voids and gently lift the concrete back into place.
• This lightweight, durable material won’t erode over time, unlike traditional mudjacking materials.
• The process was completed within a few hours, restoring the concrete’s even surface.

Step 2: Crack Sealing with NexusPro

• The existing cracks and control joints were thoroughly cleaned and prepped.
• NexusPro sealant, a weather-resistant and UV-stable solution, was applied to create a flexible, long-lasting barrier.
• Unlike traditional caulks, NexusPro won’t dry out or crack over time.
• A thin layer of native sand was added for a seamless, natural look.

The Transformation

By the end of the repair, the results were undeniable. The once-uneven and cracked garage floor was now level and stable, allowing the homeowner to close the garage door properly again. The carport, which had been visibly sinking, was lifted back into place, improving both safety and appearance.

Even better, all cracks were permanently sealed, eliminating the risk of water infiltration that could further weaken the soil beneath. The entire project was completed in a single day, and thanks to NexusPro’s quick 60-minute cure time, the homeowner could use their concrete surfaces almost immediately.

Had the homeowner waited longer, the situation could have worsened, leading to more extensive and costly repairs. Thanks to Davenport Foundation Repair’s expert assessment and advanced repair techniques, they were able to resolve the problem before it became a bigger issue.

Why Davenport Foundation Repair?

After searching online for expert foundation and concrete repair services, the homeowners found Davenport Foundation Repair. What stood out to them was the company’s strong reputation, proven track record, and commitment to using cutting-edge repair solutions.

When they scheduled their free inspection, Davenport’s team arrived promptly and conducted a thorough assessment. Unlike other companies that offered only surface-level fixes, the specialists at Davenport explained the underlying cause of the problem: the soil beneath the concrete had compressed and washed away, leaving voids that caused the slabs to sink and crack. They recommended NexusPro for crack sealing and PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift and stabilize the sunken concrete.

The homeowners were impressed by the transparency and expertise of the Davenport team. Instead of offering a temporary patch, they proposed a permanent solution designed to withstand Utah’s extreme weather conditions. Confident in their decision, the homeowners gave the green light for the repairs.

The Repair Process

Davenport Foundation Repair’s crew arrived at the scheduled time and immediately got to work. The repair process involved several precise steps:

Step 1: Concrete Lifting with PolyLevel®

• Small, strategically placed drill holes were made in the affected slabs.
• A high-density PolyLevel® foam was injected beneath the concrete, expanding to fill voids and lift the slabs back to their original position.
• Unlike traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel® is lightweight, durable, and won’t break down over time.
• The process was completed in just a few hours, with minimal disruption to the homeowners' daily routine.

Step 2: Crack Sealing with NexusPro

• The team prepared the cracks, removing debris and inserting a non-absorbent backer rod filler to prevent moisture from reaching the soil below.
• They applied NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant designed for long-lasting flexibility. Unlike traditional sealants, NexusPro is UV-resistant, meaning it won’t dry out, crack, or deteriorate.
• A thin layer of native sand was applied to blend the repaired cracks seamlessly with the surrounding concrete.

Transformation – The After

The results were immediate and impressive. The once-uneven garage floor was now smooth and level, eliminating trip hazards and making the space functional again. The sunken carport had been lifted back into place, restoring its stability and preventing further damage.

Even better, the cracks that once invited water and weeds were now properly sealed, protecting the concrete from future deterioration. The homeowners were relieved—they no longer had to worry about worsening cracks or costly foundation damage. The entire project was completed in a single day, and within just 60 minutes, the NexusPro sealant was fully cured, allowing the homeowners to use their driveway and garage as usual.

The Power of Trust: Why Acting Early Matters

This experience reinforced an important lesson: foundation and concrete issues don’t fix themselves—they only get worse over time. Had the homeowners ignored the warning signs, the cracks would have widened, the sinking would have continued, and the cost of repairs would have been much higher.

Davenport Foundation Repair provided not only a solution but peace of mind. The company’s approach—offering a thorough evaluation, expert recommendations, and long-term fixes—helped the homeowners make the right decision before the damage became too severe.

A Win for Everyone

By investing in professional concrete repair, the homeowners protected their property value, improved their home’s curb appeal, and eliminated safety concerns. What started as a stressful and frustrating problem was transformed into a success story of restoration and durability.
