Alchatek offers world-class custom-built pump systems for both slab lifting and soil stabilization applications. If you're looking for a full-sized trailer rig system, click here to read more on that subject. In this blog post, we'll take a look at two propriety systems designed by the professionals at Alchatek. 

The PolyBadger: Compact Lifting System on Wheels

The wheel-mounted PolyBadger two-component pump system is an extremely valuable addition to any slab lifter's arsenal. It is perfect for new contractors looking to make an initial investment and for experienced contractors looking to add a portable option for those hard-to-reach locations. Small enough to fit in the back of a pickup truck, this simple system requires minimal equipment.

• Lower Initial Investment
• Less Equipment Needed
• Easily Fitted to a Truck, Trailer, or Cart

The PolyShark: Skid-Mounted Soil Stabilization System

The skid-mounted PolyShark single-component pump system is essential for large-scale soil stabilization and void-fill projects. The PolyShark system includes a gas-powered high-pressure injection pump, two hose reels, and flow meters. The entire skid-mounted system can easily be fitted to a flatbed truck for efficient transport.

• Ideal for Large-Scale Jobs
• Complete System (Pump, Hose Reels, Flow Meters)
• Easily Fitted to Flatbed Truck

Slab Lifting Overview

Over time, concrete surfaces settle and need to be lifted and leveled. Polyurethane foam is an effective slab lifting method. The process involves injecting polyurethane into voids beneath the concrete surface to lift and level the slab. Cost-efficient and effective, this method has become increasingly popular over time.

Slab lifting with polyurethane is non-invasive, quick, and causes minimal disruption to nearby areas. Small holes are drilled into the concrete and foam is injected through them. The foam expands, filling voids beneath the slab and lifting it back to its original position.

Commercial/Industrial Slab Issues

Settled and/or rocking slabs in factories, parking decks, and warehouses can pose severe safety and liability issues. Unstable supporting soil and unlevel slabs can cause:

• Employee and customer injuries.
• Damage to equipment and forklifts.
• Unstable storage racks.
• Floor collapse.
• Lawsuits.

Advantages of Commercial Jobs

Large businesses and organizations tend to have more slabs in need of repair than smaller residential customers. While taking on these types of jobs may seem daunting to a residential slab lifting contractor, you can mitigate a lot of the risk by taking advantage of Alchemy-Spetec's technical support team and onsite training. Commercial/industrial organizations offer more repeat business opportunities as well. If you're going to spend marketing dollars on leads, why not focus some of that budget on larger jobs like these?
