Driveway Repair

Polyurethane foam being injected below concrete.

A broken driveway can make your home less safe and less attractive, and it might even lower its value. AFS Foundation & Waterproofing Specialists uses a modern driveway repair method called polyurethane injection.

Homeowners in our service area, including Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, and Kentucky rely on us for our excellent service and lasting results. This article explains why our concrete driveway repair is the best choice for your home.

What is Driveway Repair?

Fixing a concrete driveway means repairing damaged, cracked, or sunken areas to make it stable and look better. This is usually done with concrete lifting, but some methods work better than others.

Old methods like mudjacking, concrete repair, or replacing the whole driveway are messy, expensive, and often don’t fix the root problems. Instead, using polyurethane injection is the best way to level a driveway.

AFS Foundation & Waterproofing Specialists uses PolyRenewal™, our exclusive polyurethane solution. With a curing time of only 15 minutes and a fast installation process, this technique quickly addresses the underlying causes behind concrete damage. See the video for a glimpse into how it works.

Signs Your Driveway Needs Repair 

It’s easy to tell if your concrete needs repair by looking at it. If you notice any of these problems, it’s time to fix your driveway:

Driveway Repair FAQs

Instead of using conventional fillers, our repairs involve injecting durable polyurethane foam beneath the concrete to lift and level it. While we don’t “patch up” concrete cracks in the traditional sense, we often succeed in sealing them. After stabilization, we apply a silicone-based sealant to the cracks and adjoining joints.

Rather than wasting money on temporary solutions that require continued installation, you can ensure your concrete’s safety and longevity and enhance your home’s value and aesthetics with professional assistance.
