In Tucson, Arizona, a homeowner noticed significant cracks in their driveway concrete slab. These unsightly cracks had worsened over time, allowing moisture to seep beneath the slab, which could lead to further soil compaction issues and potentially more extensive damage. Concerned about the long-term effects and the impact on their property’s appearance, the homeowner reached out to Arizona Foundation Solutions for a professional assessment.
TJ, the design specialist, conducted a detailed inspection of the driveway and confirmed that the cracks were due to soil settlement and compaction beneath the slab. He recommended using NexusPro, a high-performance silicone-based sealant, to address the issue. This product is designed to withstand Tucson's harsh climate and prevent further damage. Brianna, the customer care representative, promptly scheduled the repair, ensuring the homeowner was fully informed about the process and timeline.
The driveway repair project in Tucson, Arizona, was successfully completed under the leadership of Anthony, the foreman. The cracks in the driveway slab were carefully sealed using the NexusPro system. The process began with the preparation of the cracks, which included drilling and smoothing to ensure a clean surface. A non-absorbent backer rod filler was then inserted, followed by the application of NexusPro sealant. This provided a durable, long-lasting seal that resists UV rays and extreme temperatures, ideal for Tucson’s climate.
The final result was a smooth, uniform finish that not only enhanced the appearance of the driveway but also ensured the protection of the underlying soil from moisture intrusion. Thanks to NexusPro’s quick curing time, the homeowner could use their driveway shortly after the repair was completed. The project was executed with precision and care, leaving the homeowner extremely satisfied with the outcome and the professionalism of the entire team, from TJ’s initial inspection to Brianna’s excellent customer service.
An area of the Homeowner's driveway was settling. With the technology of PolyLevel, we were able to bring the sidewalk back up to a level position.
Cracked concrete occurred when a section of a concrete slab broke and sank into the underlying soil that had compressed or washed away. These cracks not only looked unappealing but also allowed moisture to seep beneath the slab, causing further soil softening or erosion. This led to additional cracking and sinking of the slab into the void created by the washed-away soil. To prevent moisture from seeping into the soil beneath, it was crucial to seal these cracks and the control joints that were cut between the slabs when they were first poured. Using urethane caulk from a DIY store was a temporary solution prone to cracking, bubbling, and drying out over time, necessitating frequent reapplications.
