Homeowners contacted DryZone with their concerns about their driveway. It was sinking as much as 4 inches in some areas.

Team DryZone used PolyLevel to lift the sinking slab and then applied NexusPro to all of the joints and cracks which had been caused by the sinking. Now this homeowner is able to use their driveway unhindered. The tripping hazard along the front walkway is also remedied by the driveway being lifted and repaired.
