A homeowner in Ashburn, VA, faced daily frustration and concern as their once-smooth concrete driveway developed uneven joints, cracks, and sinking slabs. These problems went beyond aesthetics—the uneven surface created serious trip hazards for the family and anyone visiting, making everyday activities like carrying groceries or letting kids play outside risky. The visible neglect also dragged down the home’s curb appeal, prompting the homeowner to seek a lasting, professional solution.
Turning to NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair, the homeowner found the expertise needed for a permanent fix. Our team devised a comprehensive, two-part strategy to restore the driveway’s safety, durability, and appearance. First, we tackled the sunken slab with the PolyLevel® injection system. By drilling small, dime-sized holes and injecting a high-density polyurethane foam underneath, we were able to fill voids, stabilize the soil, and lift the concrete back to its original position—all with impressive precision. The result was a level surface, free from trip hazards.
To ensure the repair would last, we applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant to all cracks and control joints. This flexible, silicone-based solution guards against water intrusion, shielding the underlying soil from erosion and further settling. Unlike conventional caulk, NexusPro® resists UV rays and extreme weather, maintaining a clean, finished look over time.
The transformation was immediate: the previously hazardous and unsightly driveway became safe, stable, and visually appealing. Sealed joints gave it a polished finish, boosting the overall curb appeal of the home. The Ashburn homeowner was delighted—not only with the quality of the repair, but with the confidence that their revitalized driveway would stand the test of time. This project is a testament to how NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair turns hazards into assets, restoring both beauty and peace of mind.
A backyard pool should be a place for summer fun and relaxation, but for one homeowner in Manassas, VA, the enjoyment was overshadowed by safety concerns when their concrete pool deck began to sink and settle, creating uneven surfaces and significant tripping hazards. In the "before" state, sections of concrete had settled at different rates, resulting in raised edges and uneven joints that posed a threat to barefoot guests, intensified by the risk of falls and injuries. The homeowner recognized additional problems like water pooling in sunken areas, which not only created slippery spots but also sped up the deterioration of both the concrete and the supporting soil, as well as the erosion caused by water seeping through open joints and cracks. These issues compromised the foundation and threatened to drive down property value—a serious concern for future resale. Wanting more than a cosmetic fix, the homeowner turned to our team for a solution that was effective, durable, and minimally disruptive compared to total replacement. Our assessment led us to recommend the PolyLevel® system, a high-strength, lightweight polyurethane foam that is injected through small holes in the affected slabs. As the foam expands, it fills voids beneath the slabs, gently lifting them back to their proper position, all while being waterproof and quick to cure, allowing for immediate use. This process restored a smooth, level surface to the pool deck and eliminated the dangerous ledges. To protect the repair and prevent further damage, we applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant to all joints and cracks. This silicone-based, flexible sealant withstands harsh weather, UV, and seasonal expansion, creating a watertight barrier that keeps moisture from eroding the soil beneath the slabs. The “after” effect was a safe, visually appealing pool deck, free of tripping hazards, with sealed joints protecting the foundation and restoring the homeowner’s peace of mind. By choosing these advanced concrete solutions, the homeowner avoided the expense and upheaval of deck replacement and regained a beautiful, secure backyard oasis that will last for years to come.

This high-quality sealant ensures water stays out, reducing the risk of erosion and extending the lifespan of the repair.
