Aquasco, MD Concrete, Foundation, Crawl Space & Basement Experts

A homeowner in Aquasco, MD faced a major issue with their backyard patio: over time, the concrete had settled unevenly, forming large cracks and dangerous trip hazards. These issues not only made the outdoor space unsightly but also posed a safety risk for family and guests. Concerned about further damage, water infiltration, and the threat to their property value, the homeowner decided to seek a permanent, minimally invasive solution.

After a free inspection, NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair recommended their advanced concrete repair and leveling process. The team began by injecting PolyLevel®, a high-density polymer foam, beneath the sunken sections. This lightweight foam quickly expanded to lift and stabilize the slabs, restoring the patio to a safe, even surface in just a few hours. To ensure lasting protection, all cracks and joints were sealed using NexusPro®, a flexible, weather-resistant sealant that keeps water out and prevents further erosion beneath the concrete.

The results were immediate—trip hazards were eliminated, and the patio looked fresh and well maintained. Thanks to this efficient process, the homeowner enjoyed a quick turnaround, enhanced safety, and significant cost savings compared to a full replacement. The repaired patio was ready for use within minutes, giving the family back a beautiful, functional space to enjoy for years to come.

At NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, we recently encountered a worrying situation for a homeowner in Aquasco, MD. Their relatively new, two-story home started showing distressing signs of structural weakness, evidenced by cracks sprawling throughout the property. Understandably distressed by the potential implications for their home's foundation, the homeowner reached out to us, hoping to uncover the cause — be it foundational issues or merely settlement woes. Upon their call, our dedicated Customer Care team swiftly set the wheels in motion, scheduling an immediate inspection to assess the severity and source of the problem.

Our System Design Specialist visited the home, meticulously inspecting each crack and evaluating the property's structural integrity. It was determined that the root cause wasn't foundational settlement but rather insufficient support in the basement - a critical area often overlooked. The recommended solution? SmartJack - a high-strength, adjustable steel pier designed to halt further sinking and stabilize the home's support structure.

Our seasoned production team, led by an experienced foreman and backed by skilled installers, promptly got to work, ensuring the process was as unobtrusive as possible for the homeowner. Application of the SmartJack system was meticulous, focusing on precision and durability to provide not just an immediate fix but a long-term solution. Post-installation, the cleanup was thorough, ensuring the homeowner's property was left in pristine condition.

The outcome was as remarkable as the process. Not only were the visible cracks addressed, confirming no further sinking would occur, but the homeowner also gained peace of mind knowing their young home's foundation was secure and supported for years to come. This experience exemplifies NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair's commitment to reliable solutions and a remarkable customer experience, resolving concerns with expertise and efficiency.
