A homeowner in Chicago faced 3 inches of settlement on the rear patio from weak soil and pooling water. We lifted the slab and fixed the drainage at the source, all in under four hours.
The rear patio slabs had sunk three inches, pulling away from the home and creating a trip hazard at the back door. The underlying cause was weak soil, worsened by poor drainage and water pooling against the patio after every rain.
Stratalock developed a targeted injection plan using specially formulated geotechnical polymer to lift the slab back to level and compact the weak soil beneath. We also added downspouts to redirect water away from the patio, addressing the root cause of the settlement. Start to finish, the project was completed in less than four hours.
