Defender Concrete Solutions Before & After Photos

The front part of this portico in Rifle Colorado had sank.  The support beams were actually loose and could be easily moved.  This was compromising the roof above and actually pulling away from the house.  In the before picture you can notice how far from the edge of the slab the support beam is compared to the after picture.  Defender Concrete Solutions was able to stabilize and lift the supporting slab using PolyLevel, a super strong foam that compacts the soil below as it lifts.  During this process the beam was moved back into its original place and became very stable, supporting the roof above.

This patio in Rifle Colorado had sank all the way across the front of the house.  Defender Concrete Solutions was able to lift and stabilize the slab.  This was done in a few hours with zero inconvenience to the homeowner.  The results were amazing.

Defender Concrete Solutions recently completed this job in Rifle, CO.  The customer was tired of dealing with the eye sore and potential liability of the trip hazards leading up to their front door.  PolyLevel was used to quickly lift and stabilize the sinking slabs, the joints were then sealed with a flexible, UV resistant joint compound.  All this at a fraction of the cost and hassle of replacing and a 5 year warranty.

Pictures do not really do the job justice that Defender Concrete Solutions recently completed in Silt, CO.  This porch and walkway had sank in the middle causing pooling and the risk of further damage.  Defender lifted the front step and then the walkway using PolyLevel.  This will eliminate the pooling and stabilize the front entry while greatly enhancing the appeal of the house.  The walkway was also supported and trip hazards eliminated with zero disruption to the family.

You can see Compression Guard that was added in the picture. Compression Guard is engineered thermo plastic that allows the slabs of your concrete to expand and contract without damaging the concrete. The slab pictured here pushed toward the garage and then retracted and settled. Defender lifted the slabs back into place, sealed the exposed joint and then added the compression guard to protect the slab in the future.
