What is the ROI with PolyRenewal™?

If you’re debating whether concrete repair is worth the cost or the return on investment (ROI), you’re not alone. Many homeowners debate whether to address immediate damage, like cracking and chipping, or invest in a longer-term repair, like concrete lifting. However, delaying maintenance often leads to extensive damage and higher costs later. 

This page explores PolyRenewal™ concrete lifting and whether the ROI is worth the repair cost. Let’s get started.

What is PolyRenewal™ Concrete Lifting?

PolyRenewal™ concrete lifting is a modern repair technique that utilizes lightweight, water-resistant polyurethane foam to raise and level sunken concrete slabs. The foam is injected through small holes drilled into the slab, causing minimal surface and landscape disruption. The foam expands beneath the slab, filling voids and potentially lifting the concrete to its original position. PolyRenewal™ is a cost-effective solution for uneven, sinking concrete slabs.

PolyRenewal™ solves concrete issues quickly and permanently because it solves the underlying cause of concrete damage: unstable soil. This repair method is an excellent long-term solution for residential and commercial concrete surfaces.

Is the ROI on PolyRenewal™ Worth It?

PolyRenewal™ offers a worthwhile ROI compared to conventional repair methods, including complete replacement. In fact, it costs significantly less than slab replacement. We discuss the factors affecting this comparison in the sections below.

Does PolyRenewal™ Concrete Lifting Affect Home Value?

Yes, PolyRenewal™ positively affects home value in several ways, including:

Enhanced Marketability and Curb Appeal

Well-maintained concrete driveways, pool decks, patios, and other surfaces enhance curb appeal, making your property more marketable to potential buyers. It may also increase property value. In fact, a study conducted by the University of Texas at Arlington indicates that curb appeal accounts for up to seven percent of a home’s selling cost. That is a significant statistic, considering some homeowners neglect concrete repair due to the expense. And let’s face it, well-maintained concrete usually indicates an overall well-cared-for property, contributing to your home’s market appeal.

Durability and Low Maintenance

PolyRenewal™ extends concrete longevity, maximizing long-term value. This quick and effective repair method allows for same-day use of the treated areas. Unlike alternative repair methods, like mudjacking and complete slab replacement, PolyRenewal™ addresses the root cause of damage—unstable soil and soil washout. This reduces future maintenance, enhances home value, and offers long-term peace of mind.

Cost-Effective

The cost savings of PolyRenewal™ compared to slab replacement can amount to thousands of dollars, depending on the size of the affected area, repair materials used, and regional cost. However, slab replacement doesn’t address the issues that caused the damage in the first place. Untreated soil issues may lead to higher expenses in the future and reduced home value due to persistent damage. Concrete lifting with PolyRenewal™ is cost-effective due to its longevity. 

What Affects PolyRenewal™ Repair Costs?

PolyRenewal™ costs are determined by several factors, including:

  • Size of the damaged area 
  • Soil conditions
  • Extent of the damage
  • Specific area treated (driveway, patio, etc.)
  • Regional cost

Exact numbers are determined during a professional concrete inspection. It is important to remember that concrete lifting costs significantly less than complete slab replacement and addresses the underlying causes of damage. These factors make PolyRenewal™ a cost-effective, long-term solution for home and business owners.

Why is PolyRenewal a Smart Investment?

PolyRenewal is a wise investment because it provides unmatched benefits that other solutions cannot match. These advantages include:

  • Long-Term Solution: PolyRenewal solves unstable soil conditions for longer-term results.
  • Lightweight: Polyurethane foam is lightweight, reducing additional load weight on soil.
  • Minimally Invasive: Requires small injection holes and minimal damage to the surrounding landscape.
  • Waterproof and Durable: PolyRenewal provides a robust and waterproof bond, preventing further water damage, cracks, and other damage.
  • Cost-Effective: PolyRenewal is durable and requires minimal upkeep, making it a wise, long-term investment for property owners.

PolyRenewal™ Concrete Lifting FAQs

PolyRenewal™ technology involves injecting advanced polyurethane foam beneath porch slabs to precisely lift and stabilize them. This technology eliminates cracks and uneven surfaces while providing long-lasting results. 

PolyRenewal™ is needed for any concrete lifting because it far surpasses other concrete lifting options. Mudjacking and concrete replacement are long, tedious processes that can take days to complete and fully dry. Not to mention, these processes can be extremely invasive to your yard. 

Meanwhile, PolyRenewal™ is easy to install and makes virtually zero mess. Once installation is complete, you won’t be able to tell where the polyurethane foam was injected. If you want a solution that is easy to install and also lasts, PolyRenewal™ is for you.

Our team injects the polyurethane foam solution below your home, where it acts like a liquid and quickly fills any voids below the ground. Afterward, the foam expands and hardens, pushing your concrete back into place and supporting its weight.

*Disclaimer: “Concrete leveling” means the process by which cracked, uneven concrete is stabilized, and in many cases lifted, by means of PolyRenewal™ polyurethane foam. Foundation Support Specialists does not guarantee that PolyRenewal™ can make your concrete perfectly level.
