The Polyjacking Process for Concrete Floors

Using poly equipment, polyjacking is a relatively simple process. This process uses a high-density polyurethane foam that is injected into the concrete. This polyurethane foam expands 20 times its liquid volume and contours to the size and shape of the voids beneath the concrete for 100% coverage. This will lift the concrete back to its original level. The process includes:

1. Drilling a small 5/8" hole through the affected concrete.
2. Polyurethane foam is injected into the voids beneath the concrete. As it expands the concrete is raised and permanently stabilized and the site cleaned up
3. Polyurethane has a short hardening time, so the concrete surface is ready for use after about 15 minutes.

Polyurethane is waterproof so it prevents any future erosion problems. After your concrete floor is lifted and stabilized, it will stay that way for many years to come.

There are many advantages to using the process of polyjacking over mudjacking for your residential or industrial concrete floor repair. Here are some of the advantages:

• Economical - less expensive than removing and replacing concrete
• Moisture resistant - Polyurethane is water resistant
• Polyurethane creates a precise lift of the concrete
• Durability - Polyurethane is strong yet dense and can support a large amount of weight
• Less disruption - Polyurethane dries quickly to concrete can be used immediately
• Conformability - Polyurethane foam contours to the size and shape of the voids to provide total coverage
