State of the Art Process for Lifting Concrete
Why wait any longer to repair those trip hazards throughout your property?
It’s not too late to check this off of your summer to-do list. According to the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI), falls account for over 8 million hospital emergency room visits, representing the leading cause of visits (21.3%). – https://nfsi.org/nfsi-research/quick-facts/One way to reduce the risk of trip hazards on your property is to repair your uneven concrete spots around your sidewalks, driveways, garage approach, stairs, and slabs. This will not only reduce your safety hazards, but it will also enhance the aesthetic and resale value of your home. Kansas City’s leading concrete repair company, PolyMagic, has the most effective solution to your uneven concrete – polyjacking.Polyjacking has many benefits of the traditional mudjacking. Polyurethane injections are much lighter than the grout mixture used in mudjacking. Concrete slabs settle due to a void underneath them.
In many cases the soil is still disturbed after the grout mix of mudjacking is inserted between the soil and the concrete slab. The shear weight of the mixture can cause additional settlement. Polyurethane weighs 250 to 300 pounds less per yard then traditional mudjacking material.
DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO ADD EXTRA WEIGHT TO ALREADY COMPROMISED SOIL?
Polyurethane is much lighter in weight. The foam can find the smallest of voids to fill them. Since polyjacking is a lighter weight material the soil doesn’t get weighed down by the mixture.
POLY IS MUCH MORE RELIABLE
The extra weight of the mud may cause the soil to settle causing a return trip to readjust the slab.
CURING TIME
Polyurethane typically cures in 15 minutes after the injection. This allows all treated areas to have full availability in minutes, not days.

4 Ways to Care for Concrete in Summer
Concrete is a sturdy material that is perfect for garage floors, porches, stairs, patios, sidewalks or driveways on your property. However, summer brings on several weather elements that can cause damage to your concrete surfaces, so knowing these 4 ways to care for concrete in summer can help you.
The Kansas City summers range in such extreme cases of humidity, rain, very hot temperatures that both homeowners and business owners have to deal with the end results. The results with concrete can be new cracks or existing cracks widening. Concrete typically has the most issues in cold winter weather, during the freeze/thaw cycle, but the warm temperatures and humidity can have the same effects. Both of these extreme weather elements are relevant in the Kansas City area, and our team at PolyMagic is here to help you.
4 Ways to Care for Concrete in Summer
Way #1: New Concrete Projects
Ready to start a new project? Concrete flatwork services are available at PolyMagic and result in some amazing new living spaces around your home. This is one way to care for your concrete in summer… to expand it and create new projects.
Way #2: Check Cracks Regularly
As a homeowner and business owner, you should review your concrete cracks regularly. A crack will continue to widen and create uneven surfaces. Trip hazards can worsen quickly and cause you, as the homeowner or business owner, tens of thousands of dollars should anyone fall on them.
Before summer ramps up, take the time to have an expert come out to review the cracks. PolyMagic is a KC-based concrete repair company that specializes in polyjacking. This is the most efficient and effective form of lifting concrete out there. The team at PolyMagic offers free estimates and as our 80+ 5-star reviews show, the crew is honest, effective and quick.
Way #3: Concrete Cleaning
Just like the interior of your home or apartment building, cleaning should be prioritized to the exterior of your home as well. The concrete surfaces in the exterior include any of the following locations – sidewalks, driveways, garages, porches, patios, and stairs. An easy way to clean the concrete surfaces is to use a pressure washer, spray down the concrete to remove built-up dirt. Then, use a mixture of water and mild detergent to scrub down the entire surface using a scrub brush. After the mixture, do a final rinse of the concrete.
Way #4: Weekly Maintenance
A little shade cast on your concrete can go a long way when the sun is hot and the temperatures are rising. Direct sunlight can cause concrete to get extremely hot and develop cracks, but it can also cause stained concrete to fade over time. PolyMagic can help you mitigate the need to replace the concrete by filling and lifting by using the method of polyjacking.
