Horizontal Slicing For Sidewalk Leveling
Leveling uneven concrete sidewalks
Uneven concrete sidewalk panels are caused by the growth of tree roots, erosion, settling or moving earth and a number of other causes. The result is a “lift” of one or more sides of a concrete panel. There may even be twisting of the panel. This creates a safety hazard as well as looking bad. The lift or trip hazard also creates liability for the property owners or managers both to personal injury and ADA lawsuits. |
How horizontal concrete slicing works
Horizontal concrete slicing uses a patented process to cut and remove just the lifted parts of the uneven sidewalk. This means of sidewalk leveling leaves a smooth surface across the entire concrete panel from edge to edge that has an ADA-compliant slope of 1 to 12 that removes the safety risks and liability associated with uneven concrete sidewalks. The process typically takes less than 20 minutes per hazard after which the sidewalk is level and can be immediately used. |
