Many people assume that as long as a contractor uses polyurethane, their concrete raising project will be successful and last a long time. 

This could not be further from the truth!

The type of polyurethane used and how it’s installed is absolutely critical! 

Some contractors cut costs by using low-density foams that compress over time, leading to future settling. Others don’t inject material in enough locations, leaving voids beneath the slabs. This puts excessive stress on the foam and also results in premature failure.

At Acme Concrete Raising & Repair, we use only high-quality polyurethane and follow strict installation procedures utilizing our Smart Lift System, ensuring long-lasting, reliable results. Don’t settle for a quick, cheap fix—demand a true specialist!

Reparing a Failed Polylift Project

January 29, 2025 11:11 am

Here is a recent project we completed for Heidenhain Corporation in Schaumburg, IL. Over 500 feet of commercial sidewalks and entryway areas had settled, leading to uneven surfaces and drainage issues. Acme Concrete Raising & Repair utilized high-density, water-resistant polyurethane to lift and level the sunken concrete, restoring it to its original grade and pitch. To expedite production and minimize disruption to facility operations, we employed two specialized systems. Acme’s certified technicians, equipped with advanced polyurethanes and cutting-edge technology, handle projects like this with ease. If your commercial property is dealing with sunken or settled concrete, trust the best—demand Acme Concrete Raising & Repair and our Smart Lift System®.

Raising Commercial Concrete in Schaumburg

September 23, 2024 8:00 am

This project is a great representation of how sunken, but otherwise perfectly functional, concrete can be saved - quickly and economically!

The Fountains of Arlington is a condominium community developed in the mid-2010s by Gettysburg Development Corp. This community is located in Arlington Heights, Illinois, on the former site of the Goebbert and Sons farm and farm stand. Since its construction, the exterior concrete surfaces have suffered from extensive sinking, causing drainage issues and trip hazards throughout the property. 

In summary, this project involved:

- Over 600 feet of sidewalks
- Access ramp stabilization
- Remedying trip hazards
- Solving drainage issues

Acme utilized high-density polyurethane, meeting the compressive strength requirements of the Illinois Tollway.  This material was used to raise and stabilize the slabs using a specialized air-purged injector system which promotes proper material flow & spread beneath the concrete.

I had ACME service for my front walkway and rear pad. They did a good job on both. The price was not lowest but reasonable. The crew showed up early and were professional and friendly with my questions. I'm happy to select ACME for my project and would highly recommend them.

Acme employees arrived on time and did the job within an hour although the original estimate was 1.5 hr. The job was done quick and very accurately. They also gave me some tips for my future project. Both employees were kind and very professional. I will definitely call them again!

Acme did a great job lifting my driveway and the steps to the front door. Notice the before and after pics where step was raised 3-4 inches to make the steps much safer. Nick was very professional and he did a 3 car driveway and steps in 4-5 hours.
