Challenge
A San Antonio homeowner reached out to Baird Foundation Repair after noticing his air conditioning unit’s concrete pad was sinking. With the intense San Antonio heat putting extra strain on cooling systems, the uneven slab created a dangerous tilt that threatened the AC’s stability and performance.
Our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled a home inspection. Upon arrival, our System Design Specialist confirmed that the slab had significantly settled, leaving the heavy AC unit vulnerable to damage. Immediate concrete repair was necessary to prevent future issues and costly replacements.
Solution
To restore stability, our team recommended PolyLevel, an advanced polyurethane foam injection system designed to lift and level concrete efficiently.
Under the guidance of our experienced foreman, the crew executed a precise, minimally invasive repair:
- Small, Clean Drill Holes: Pea-sized openings were drilled into the affected slab.
- Polyurethane Injection: High-strength PolyLevel foam was injected beneath the concrete.
- Controlled Expansion: The foam expanded to fill voids, lifting the slab evenly.
- Final Leveling: The AC unit’s foundation was carefully leveled and stabilized.
This solution provided a quick, clean, and long-lasting fix without the disruption of traditional concrete replacement.
Result
The PolyLevel concrete repair restored the slab to a level position, securing the homeowner’s AC unit and preventing future settlement.
Key Results:
- Immediate stabilization of the sinking slab
- Long-term reliability with a permanent PolyLevel solution
- Minimal disruption and fast completion
- Restored confidence in the AC unit’s stability during peak Texas heat
This project highlights Baird Foundation Repair’s commitment to providing San Antonio homeowners with innovative, lasting concrete repair solutions that deliver dependable results.
