Why Should You Invest In PolyRenewal™ Injections?

While concrete damage like cracks and uneven slabs must be promptly and properly fixed, you have many repair options.

In another article, we compared and contrasted mudjacking and polyurethane injections.

In this article, we dig deeper into other methods, explaining why they are no match for our proprietary PolyRenewal™ polyurethane injection system.

Let’s dive in!

What Is PolyRenewal™ and Why Should I Invest In It?

Groundworks’ exclusive PolyRenewal™ system is an expanding polyurethane foam that fills voids under your concrete slabs. The lightweight, yet durable foam works twofold to stabilize underlying soil while lifting and leveling the above concrete.

Among its many advantages, this minimally invasive process only requires small holes and unobtrusive equipment to implement our eco-friendly, quick-curing, long-lasting polyurethane foam.

Once you invest in our PolyRenewal™ system, you won’t have to worry about concrete problems (in the area where it was installed) again. There’s no need to keep injecting polyurethane foam in the same place over and over, saving you time, money, and stress. PolyRenewal™ is engineered to stand the test of time, weather the elements, and not wash out or settle beneath concrete.

Other Repair Methods and Why They Aren’t the Answer

You have other options to repair your damaged concrete, but they’re not as reliable. They include:

  • Mudjacking: Heavy material pumped under the concrete weighs down the soil, takes a considerable amount of time to cure, and does not fully fill gaps. The process is invasive, expensive, time-consuming, and ultimately not effective.
  • Replacement: Demolishing existing concrete and repouring cement gives your concrete a fresh face, but the same problems will happen again. Cement takes a long time to dry and can be costly.
  • Self-Leveling Concrete: Cement treated with polymers is easy enough to implement for DIY patch jobs, but self-leveling concrete comes with a host of issues, including improperly mixing and pouring the material.
  • Other Patching, Caulking, and Overlay Systems: These methods only cover up cosmetic issues like cracks and holes.

The bottom line: These solutions are temporary fixes that must be repeatedly purchased and installed. This costs you time and money, plus they do not address the underlying causes of damage.

What to Know Next

Of the various concrete repair options, PolyRenewal™ stands out as the best choice. Other methods fail, but our proprietary solution lasts. Investing in PolyRenewal™ now saves you money in the future.
