COMMERCIAL CONCRETE LIFTING AND LEVELING IN HAM LAKE, MN

Recently, DBS had the opportunity to help a business owner in Ham Lake, MN, who was facing a significant settling issue with the concrete entrance and sidewalks of their commercial property.

Recently, we had the opportunity to help someone in Ham Lake, MN, who was facing a significant issue with the concrete entrance to their business. Over time, the concrete had begun to settle unevenly, leading to an uneven surface that not only looked unappealing but also presented a safety hazard for visitors. Understanding the importance of first impressions and the safety of their customers, the homeowner reached out to us for a reliable solution. Upon receiving their call, our customer care team promptly scheduled a home inspection to assess the situation firsthand. Our Design Specialist was on-site to take a closer look at the uneven concrete, identify the root cause of the problem, and recommended PolyLevel© injection—a state-of-the-art solution for lifting and leveling concrete surfaces. PolyLevel© is a fast-acting, durable product perfect for adjusting concrete to its proper position without the mess of traditional mudjacking. It requires minimal downtime, which was a huge benefit for our client hoping to cause the least disruption possible to their business operations. They carefully injected PolyLevel© beneath the settled slabs, which gently lifted the concrete back to its original level. The outcome was just what the owner hoped for—a beautifully leveled front entrance that speaks volumes of their business’s regard for professionalism and safety, without any intrusive downtime or mess. Thanks to our production team led by Justin, they now enjoy a long-lasting resolution that reaffirms their decision in trusting our expertise for not just a quick fix, but a reliable, enduring solution.
