PolyLevel® Concrete Lifting & Leveling
PolyLevel® is sometimes mistakenly referred to as slab jacking. This concrete leveling product is a two-part foam engineered to expand immediately upon injection beneath a settled slab. Injection holes are much smaller than those required for mud jacking. In action, PolyLevel® expands to many times its original volume, forcing the sunken concrete back to its original level. Within a matter of minutes, the expanded polymer hardens and reaches 90% or more of its final strength. This makes it possible for the restored surface to regain full functionality right away.
Complete your concrete project with SealantPro and NexusPro. SealantPro, our concrete sealing formula, seals your concrete from the elements and extends its life by 3-5 times. It protects your concrete from water damage, stains from oils and gasoline, and damage from weather. NexusPro repairs cracks using a special formula that is engineered to last. NexusPro will never bubble, crack, or dry out and will keep your concrete looking new for years to come.

Project Overview: A homeowner in Alameda, CA, was experiencing persistent moisture issues in their crawl space, which could lead to structural damage, mold growth, and air quality concerns. After identifying the need for a comprehensive solution, the homeowner contacted Foundation Repair of CA for an evaluation. Our team provided a tailored solution to protect the crawl space, improve energy efficiency, and create a healthier environment within the home.
Challenges: The primary concern was the high moisture levels in the crawl space, which could lead to long-term damage to the foundation and the home's structure. The crawl space had no proper drainage system, leaving it vulnerable to standing water and potential mold growth. Without intervention, this could have resulted in costly repairs and impacted the overall health of the home.
Solution: Foundation Repair of CA recommended a comprehensive crawl space encapsulation system, designed to keep moisture out and protect the home's foundation. The key elements of the solution included:
- CleanSpace® 20ml Liner: We installed a CleanSpace® 20ml liner over the ground surface and foundation walls to encapsulate the crawl space fully. This heavy-duty liner acts as a moisture barrier, preventing water from seeping through the soil or foundation walls into the crawl space.
- Drainage Matting: To further protect the CleanSpace® liner, we installed drainage matting underneath. This allows water to flow through its dimples, ensuring it moves away from the encapsulated area, preventing water from accumulating beneath the liner, and protecting it from tears and punctures.
- SmartDrain® Water Watch Alarm System: We installed a SmartDrain® Water Watch Alarm system to detect any leaks in the plumbing that might cause water to enter the encapsulated crawl space. The alarm alerts the homeowner to potential issues, while the drainage system ensures any water safely drains into the soil.
- CleanSpace® Pier Wrap: To create a completely sealed environment, we wrapped the bottom of the pier post assemblies with the CleanSpace® liner and CleanSpace® tape. This ensured that all structural components in the crawl space were protected from moisture exposure.
- CleanSpace® Wallie: We extended the CleanSpace® liner up to 3 feet along the foundation walls, sealing the vertical surfaces and adding an extra layer of protection against moisture infiltration from the sides.
Outcome: The homeowner now enjoys a moisture-free crawl space that improves air quality and energy efficiency in the home. The CleanSpace® liner, combined with the drainage matting, ensures long-term protection against moisture intrusion, while the SmartDrain® Water Watch Alarm provides peace of mind against plumbing leaks. With a recommendation for annual maintenance through our Care Club Membership, the system remains in optimal condition, safeguarding the home’s foundation and the family’s health.
Conclusion: This project exemplifies Foundation Repair of CA's commitment to delivering innovative, long-lasting solutions for homeowners dealing with foundation and moisture issues. By encapsulating the crawl space and installing a water management system
The homeowner knew he needed to fix his uneven floors when he bought the home. There were large portions of the floor that weren't supported by anything. Our crew installed our SmartJack Adjustable Steel Post system along with new floor joists and beams to support the areas that were noticeably uneven.

This business park in Alameda, CA had 13 unlevel sidewalk areas that they wanted addressed around their various buildings. Instead of removing and replacing the concrete areas as they have in the past, they contact Foundation Repair of CA to lift and level the areas using our PolyLevel solution. In just 1 day, with limited inconvenience to the tenants in the buildings, our PolyLevel crew came out and injected the foam solution under the various sections, removing the tripping hazards.
