Trip Hazard Removed and Patio Joints Sealed in Germantown, TN

We recently met with a homeowner, Richard, in Germantown, TN, to inspect a sidewalk in front of his home that had developed a significant trip hazard. After a complaint was filed with the city, he was required to either repair or replace the damaged concrete slabs. To meet city requirements without incurring the cost of full replacement, Richard chose the most efficient and budget-friendly option—PolyLevel® concrete lifting. This method allowed us to quickly and cleanly raise the sunken slab, removing the trip hazard and restoring a safe, even surface.

During the visit, Richard also requested an assessment of his backyard patio. The patio featured 34 linear feet of control joints, each approximately two inches wide and three inches deep. Most joints still contained aging wood filler that had begun to rot. We removed all decayed material and prepped the joints for sealing. Given the depth, we installed backer rod to support the sealant, ensuring durability and a clean, finished appearance that will protect the concrete for years to come.

This project resolved both a public safety concern and a maintenance issue in one visit, all while staying within budget.
