Barker Central School District Project Recap

A-1 Concrete Leveling goes back to school to teach sunken concrete a lesson!!!

This video is a series of clips from a project at Barker Central School District where A-1 Concrete Leveling (Western New York Division) raised over 5000 square feet of sunken concrete.  The project was completed in less than 3 days using our patented equipment and expert personnel.

Raising slabs back to its original position saves 50%-70% versus replacement and is environmentally friendly.  "We Pump It Up!"

A-1 Concrete Leveling has a secret to tell you.....

A-1 Concrete Leveling and the 2014 FM Expo

Thursday, November 6, 2014 (11:00 AM- 5:00 PM)

Facilities Management Expo 2014

Thanks again to Nancy Boyd Haley for organizing the ever-popular Facilities Management Expo.  We are looking forward to exhibiting there!  

For the past 19 years the FM Expo has provided a comfortable and convenient environment to meet with many of our existing commercial and industrial customers as well as the opportunity to connect with some great people that may become new customers. The FM Expo is a great opportunity to learn about new innovative products and services.  As concrete leveling is still emerging, and due to our unique, patented pressure injection application, it is always good to meet with our customers face-to-face to discuss our process.  Of course, it’s always a pleasure to reconnect with other vendors as well.

When concrete leveling is right for your project, A-1 Concrete Leveling can save you 50 to 70 percent versus replacing sunken concrete.  One of the best things about concrete leveling is that it can be done until the ground freezes even in the rain so if you have money in the budget use it with A-1 Concrete Leveling or lose it!

We look forward to seeing you at the 2014 Facilities Management Expo!  Visit us at booth #213 and see what concrete leveling can do for your facility.

The Expos is at the Grapevines Banquets (333 Dick Road) in Depew, NY, On Thursday, November 6^th, from 11:00AM to 5:00PM.

How Long Does A-1 Concrete Leveling’s Process Last?

A-1 Concrete Leveling Western New York uses proprietary concrete raising equipment to “Help Raise Buffalo to Higher Ground” by raising settled concrete back to original position through the use of specialized technology and expert personnel. 

Over the past 8 years I have completed almost 5000 estimates and we have raised over 25,000 slabs.  One of the most common questions I’m asked is “How long does concrete leveling last?”  Good questions often have more than one answer.

The quick answer is years but it depends on a number of variables.  It is similar to asking how long car tires last. Well, it depends.  Are they being used on a race car or grandma’s car?  Are they used in rough or snowy conditions?  Is the driver aggressive and flooring it every time they come off a stop light or is every drive like a Sunday afternoon stroll in the countryside?   

If the concrete is caulked and any drainage issues are resolved A-1 Concrete Leveling’s work will last for many years.  We use high density limestone based slurry which fills voided areas below slabs and generates the pressure to raise those sunken slabs back to their original position.  One need not look further than the endurance of the Pyramids, also made of limestone, to know it has the potential to outlast an Egyptian Dynasty or many nasty Northeastern winters.

Take a look below at the original Before and After pictures from a driveway project in 2007.  Then, as a testament to longevity, check out the Before-After-Now photo from this year which is 7 years after the project was completed and you can decide for yourself how long concrete leveling lasts.

A-1 Concrete Leveling keeps a patio from falling away into the abyss…..

It has been 8 years for A-1 Concrete Leveling raising almost 20,000 sunken concrete slabs in Western New York. Time fly’s when you see years of learning and expertise re-create something new out of something old. It’s not about the biggest jobs or the smallest jobs it’s about knowing when you have contributed to a positive result!!! 

During the past week we had an opportunity to revive a patio that was sinking fast enough to consider how long it would take for the patio to end up in China.  Saving money is great; but saving time and money is smart and why not be greedy when it comes to your time and money?

A-1 Concrete Leveling provides an opportunity to “Pump it Up” instead of pulling it out!

A-1 Concrete Leveling Relaxes at Del Monte Lodge & SPA Knowing We Provide A Long-Term Solution

This past weekend I had the opportunity to stay at the Del Monte Lodge & SPA in the Rochester, NY area where we completed a project 3 years ago and see first-hand the longevity of our work.  I felt like a proud dad looking at our work at this beautiful place and knowing we had provided a service that offered a long-term solution!!!  Doing something can be an accomplishment; doing something right is an achievement.

A-1 Concrete Leveling Western New York Division is “Helping to Raise Western New York to Higher Ground” by raising concrete that has settled over the years back to original position. One of the most common questions I get on estimate is “How long does concrete leveling last?”  My answer… “A-1 Concrete Leveling guarantees our work for 2 years but our work should long outlast the warranty”.  The #1 reason that concrete settles is water erosion (aka: drainage) so the longevity of concrete and concrete leveling can also be dependent on the pitch of the slab, dirt/fill being added to the sides of the concrete and caulking exposed joints/cracks to prevent future drainage from entering under the slab.
