Raising Sidewalks for Lehmen and Menis in Crystal Lake, IL

February 24, 2023 10:43 am

Here at Acme Concrete Raising & Repair, we see every situation conceivable when it comes to settled concrete. From sinking foundations to dropped interior floors to problems with municipal infrastructure, we see it all! However, this video is about the three most common problems caused by sunken concrete.

Number 1: Sidewalks: Whether residential or commercial, sinking sidewalks claim the top spot on our short list. Uneven, tilted slabs are the biggest culprit when it comes to trip hazards! If trip hazards aren't the issue, sidewalks are notorious for sinking at entryways, causing a large step up to porches, steps, or stoops.

Number 2: Patios: When patios sink, control joints may break and result in nasty trip spots. Sinking can also prevent water from draining properly. If your patio sinks along the foundation of your home, water may begin affecting the foundation or drain tile. 

Number 3: Driveways: We commonly see driveways with broken, misaligned control joints, causing trip spots and drainage issues. However, the most common driveway problem is sinking along the garage entrance, causing a large bump when pulling in or out. 

No matter if you have a sinking sidewalk, patio, driveway, or large equipment pad at a municipal pumping station…Acme Concrete Raising & Repair can fix it quickly and efficiently. Our repairs are long term solutions and very economical.

Fixing The Top 3 Sunken Concrete Problems

February 16, 2023 1:09 pm

If you’re looking into concrete raising services, you may find yourself wondering:  What is the best way to do this? In this video, we’re going to share with you 7 of the top reasons why our polyurethane services can’t be beat!

Number 1: Our polyurethane is quick and clean. Gone are the days of messy mudjacking projects and waiting to use your raised concrete! When we raise driveways or garage floors, you can drive on them as soon as we’re done.

Number 2: Our polyurethane is durable and long-lasting. Once injected beneath your concrete, our waterproof material will not crack, shrink, or wash out like mudjacking.

Number 3: Our process is cost-effective. By being specialists, our repairs are very efficient, long lasting and protected with a great warranty. We eliminate the need for replacement with our quick, clean, easy solution. 

Number 4: Versatility: As specialists in this industry, we have various polyurethane materials, each designed to best deal with your specific problem. From lifting extremely large structures, to void filling to strengthening the ground deep below your slab or foundation - we can rectify most any problem.

Number 5: Older methods compound the problem of sinking concrete by adding significant weight to an already compromised area. Our polyurethane works to compact the weak areas and raise the concrete without adding significant weight.

Number 6: Polyurethane technology is less intrusive. Old methods required large holes to be placed in your concrete and heavy equipment to move around your property. Our process involves a small hose and hand tools, which do not disrupt your lawn, landscaping, or flower gardens.

Number 7: Polyurethane is the choice of engineers. The benefits of polyurethane are not simply our opinion - they are indeed facts. Commercial properties, municipalities, and department of transportation projects require the use of polyurethane materials - not allowing any mudjacking slurries whatsoever.

In summary, polyurethane is an easy choice. Our repairs are conducted by certified technicians and result in great looking, long lasting solutions to sunken concrete. The next step is for you to select the right contractor. Raising and stabilizing concrete is our specialty!
In fact, Acme Concrete Raising & Repair is Chicagoland’s original polyurethane specialist!

Top 7 Benefits Of Polyurethane Foam Concrete Raising

February 13, 2023 1:33 pm

Although polyurethane technology has been proven as a preferable solution to mudjacking, not all polyurethane providers are equal. To increase earnings, many companies utilize low density, high yield materials, which isn't necessarily in your best interest.

Acme Concrete Raising & Repair recognizes the significance of high-density materials that satisfy compressive strength specifications for lifting and sustaining roadways. We've developed the Smart Lift System, which is unrivaled - providing a combination of engineered materials, specialized equipment, and highly trained, certified technicians and estimate guard - protecting our consumers by ensuring the best overall value for concrete raising.

Raising concrete isn't always an easy task. It's critical to begin any project with an accurate estimate from an experienced concrete raising professional. Unfortunately, many of our competitors rely on salespeople with no actual concrete raising experience. Motivated by sales commissions, these individuals provide inaccurate evaluations.

We only use qualified specialists to analyze your project, ensuring a professional and precise review. Our estimators have practical, real world, industry specific expertise, so you can rest assured that your project is in skilled hands.

As the exclusive provider of the Smart Lift System, we have been laser-focused on polyurethane technology for longer than anyone else in Chicagoland. Our broad client base reflects our expertise, with commercial and municipal customers accounting for half of our business. Our reputation speaks for itself, and when you hire Acme Concrete Raising & Repair, you can be assured that your project is in the best possible hands from start to end.

If you need concrete raising services, don't settle for just any company. Acme Concrete Raising & Repair is the place to go for expert evaluations, the Smart Lift System, and a reputation for quality. Contact us today for a comprehensive assessment of your concrete raising needs.
