Safety Concerns from Sinking Patio and Walkway Slabs
Tim M. of Memphis, TN had only lived in his home for a couple of years when he began noticing issues that made him uneasy. Several wooden joints throughout his patio and walkway had started deteriorating, creating gaps and uneven surfaces. A walkway slab near the patio tilted out of place, while a 4x8 patio slab had sunk toward the house, raising water drainage concerns. Even a smaller 4x4 slab near the bedroom angled away from the home, causing both cosmetic frustration and safety worries. Tim feared that these problems could become a liability if a guest tripped or if the concrete shifted further, damaging the home’s structure.
Professional Concrete Leveling and Joint Sealant Application
To address these problems, our team recommended a comprehensive concrete repair plan. The uneven slabs were lifted and leveled using proven concrete leveling techniques, restoring a smooth and even surface. All wooden joints were carefully removed—work that can take a full day depending on how they were originally installed. Once cleared, NexusPro® joint sealant was applied in place of the old wood, as well as around the pool coping and patio caulking. This premium sealant provided lasting flexibility, water resistance, and protection against future cracking, ensuring the patio and walkway were not only safer but also more attractive.
Long-Term Benefits of Concrete Repair in Memphis
By choosing professional concrete repair, Tim not only improved the look of his outdoor spaces but also protected his home’s value. Lifting the slabs redirected water away from the foundation, preventing costly future damage. The replacement of worn wooden joints with NexusPro® created a seamless, modern appearance while safeguarding the concrete from weather-related wear. This project demonstrates why expert solutions for concrete leveling, walkway lifting, and joint replacement are essential for Memphis homeowners who want safe, durable, and beautiful outdoor living areas.
