Campo, CA: Sinking Walkway Reversed in One Afternoon-Saber Foundation Repair Restores Safety & Peace of Mind
A family in Campo, CA had watched their front-walkway slabs sink deeper every season. The concrete trip hazard was more than cosmetic; delivery drivers stumbled, rainwater pooled against the foundation, and the homeowners worried that the spreading settlement signaled larger structural trouble. When cracks began radiating up the adjacent stem wall, they knew the problem had to be solved before it eroded property value or someone was hurt.
Initial patching attempts with store-bought cement failed within months, and traditional mud-jacking looked messy, heavy, and likely to wash out again. Online research pointed them toward firms specializing in lightweight polymer lifting rather than grout pumping. Saber Foundation Repair’s reputation for thorough inspections and straight-talk solutions convinced the homeowners to schedule a free evaluation.
During the visit, Saber’s technician mapped voids beneath the slabs with precise measuring tools and explained why the soil had compacted unevenly. The recommendation was PolyLevel®—a high-density expanding polyurethane foam that is environmentally safe, waterproof, and engineered to exert enough controlled lift to realign concrete without adding load to weakened soil. Because the foam is lighter than traditional fill, it would not promote future settlement, and the cured material would seal out moisture, preventing washout.
The crew bored a pattern of discreet ⅝-inch holes through the walkway, set slim injector ports, and filled the voids beneath with the two-part foam. Within seconds the polyurethane expanded, gently raising each slab until the walkway matched its original grade. The entire operation—from arrival to final sweep—finished in a single afternoon, leaving only pea-sized patches to mark the injection points.
Immediately, doors near the walkway swung freely again, stormwater drained away from the foundation, and the surface felt solid underfoot. Most important to the homeowners was the confidence that the issue had been solved with a modern, lasting technology rather than a stop-gap. Saber’s transferable warranty and clear after-care guidelines underscored that peace of mind.
Foundation or concrete problems rarely improve on their own; they deepen, spread, and grow more expensive to correct. Saber Foundation Repair’s transparent assessments, minimal-disruption procedures, and commitment to permanent results empower homeowners to act early and avoid cascading damage. By restoring a level, stable walkway in Campo, the company not only removed an immediate safety risk but also protected the long-term health of the home.
If cracks, settlement, or uneven slabs are appearing around your property, now is the best moment to address them. Call Saber Foundation Repair for a complimentary inspection and learn how a precise PolyLevel® application can secure your concrete—and your peace of mind—before minor issues become major headaches.
