This Leawood homeowner in the Hallbrook area had a driveway that was sinking at the garage apron, creating a low spot where water pooled after every single rain. The standing water was seeping under the garage door and threatening to cause interior flooding — the homeowner had already noticed moisture stains on the garage floor.
Johnson County's expansive clay had settled beneath the driveway over the years, creating a depression right where it could do the most damage. Replacing the entire driveway slab would have been expensive and disruptive to the property.
Rather than tear out and replace the entire driveway, we used polyurethane foam injection to lift the settled sections back to proper grade and eliminate the low spot. The foam fills voids beneath the concrete, expands to provide lift, and cures in minutes with long-term structural support.
After polyjacking the driveway, water now sheets off the surface properly instead of collecting against the garage. The homeowner avoided a costly full driveway replacement and solved the water intrusion risk in a single afternoon.
