One of the biggest liabilities around your house is your uneven concrete. Areas that often begin to see uneven or setting concrete include:
This case study focuses on an easy, inexpensive repair for your home. Repairing your existing concrete is a more effective, and efficient, repair than replacing the concrete. Let’s check out this specific customer in Kansas City, Missouri. They have a standard case of uneven concrete at the area where the driveway meets the garage. The concrete had dropped about 1.5″ and was becoming a potential trip hazard for the family and guests to the home. In addition, this was a home improvement project to take on that would eventually help in the resale value of the home in the future.
The team at PolyMagic came out to the home in the Kansas City area and provided an in-depth assessment, including measurements to specifically determine the drop in the concrete. Our team determined the most effective method of repair would be to lift the concrete back to its safe and even driveway area. Our customers typically ask us why we use polyjacking, and we have some solid reasons why. Here are our main reasons for utilizing the polyjacking technology compared to traditional mudjacking.

- Cost Effective – Concrete raising is typically about 33% less than replacing the same concrete at your commercial location. Ultimately, the cost of raising or stabilizing concrete is a direct reflection of how much leveling material the project will require. The experienced team at PolyMagic is equipped to offer a free estimate and walk you through each step of the process for the most cost effective solution that fits your needs.
- Time – Polyjacking has very little ‘rest’ time. Your business and commercial area is able to continue operation before, during and after the polyjacking process. Your business will experience little to no down time.
- Clean Work Environment – The polyjacking process does not require a wash down and will not have any concrete or grout splatter. The area is clean and can operate as normal immediately after.
- Smaller Holes – Polyurethane concrete raising drills a nearly invisible 5/8 inch hole and the process calls for considerably fewer holes than traditional mudjacking. The tiny holes require very minimal patchwork.
- Lightweight – This material will never lose density. It is permanent and weighs only about 2 pounds per cubic foot. Compared to traditional mudjacking that weighs about 100 pounds per cubic foot.Check out the below comparison in the amount of product needed for mudjacking vs. polyjacking.
- Green – Polyurethane is environmentally friendly. It consists of 39-49% renewable and recycled materials.
