The Wallet-Friendly, Minimally Invasive Solution
In Part One of this series, we explored the “old ways” of handling some foundation repairs. Oklahoma Foundation Solutions succeeds in evaluating genuinely and offering a customized solution for our customers. For numerous situations, the engineer-approved process of polyurethane injection helps.
After causes and signs appear, it is usually best to get the property evaluated. Whether it is OFS’s free, comprehensive evaluation or an evaluation from a structural engineer, you will know for sure that a polyurethane injection is warranted.
Here’s how polyurethane injection works:
- Our award-winning team carefully preps the job site to ensure our thorough cleanup will be efficient and easy once the work is completed.
- Small holes are drilled into the concrete slab in a strategic pattern where the concrete requires lifting.
- Polyurethane is injected through the drilled holes. The material expands to fill the voids between the concrete slab and the subgrade. Once the voids have been filled, the concrete slab is lifted and stabilized.
- The injection holes are filled, allowing homeowners to use the surface immediately.
Why Oklahoma Homeowners Choose Polyurethane Injection
The benefits of polyurethane injection, also known as foam injection or poly-leveling, are numerous.
The polyurethane injection process can do all of the following:
- Saves Money. Polyurethane concrete raising is often less than half the cost of replacing the concrete.
- Saves Time. Polyurethane stabilizes concrete very quickly, allowing homeowners to walk on or even drive on it the same day. Further, most polyurethane jobs are completed in a single day, minimizing disruption and maximizing cost savings.
- Leaves No Mess. Polyurethane concrete raising is a minimally invasive process that does not require heavy equipment. With no concrete or grout splatter and with no wash down needed, our thorough cleanup is efficient and easy.
- Appears Barely Noticeable. Polyurethane concrete raising drills a nearly invisible 5/8-inch hole and requires fewer holes than other services, requiring minimal patchwork once the work is completed.
- Solves It Seemingly Effortlessly. No more unsightly excavations or intrusive repairs.
- Enjoys Long-Term Stability. The polyurethane remains stable for years (backed by a strong foundation repair warranty), providing lasting protection for your most important investment.
- Weighs Relatively Little. Polyurethane is lightweight, only two pounds per cubic foot. Yet, it never loses its density, and provides long-lasting durability that stands the test of time.
- Remains Eco-Friendly. The polyurethane foam used by OFS is nontoxic and non-hazardous, helps save our natural resources, and uses environmentally friendly blowing agents.
Quick Note: While polyurethane injection is a fantastic solution for many foundation issues, we also understand that some situations require more extensive repairs. If your home has significant damage, such as severely cracked or uneven slabs, we may recommend methods like floor stitching or interior slab replacement. These techniques, while more invasive, can provide long-term stability and peace of mind in cases where polyurethane injection alone isn’t enough. Our experienced team will carefully assess your foundation and recommend the most appropriate solution for your specific needs and budget.
