Nortex Concrete Lift & Stabilization Serving Plano, Texas
Hello! You have reached Texas’ premier concrete solution-needs company – Nortex Concrete Lift & Stabilization. As a licensed road-construction company home-based in Fort Worth, we specialize in the lifting and stabilizing of concrete panels that have become compromised due to erosion, unstable soils, etc. From uneven airport runways to defective sidewalks in residential neighborhoods, Nortex is there to correct the problems and eliminate the hazards.
Given enough time, concrete settles on its own when weak soil expands and contracts. The remedy for this malady is an easy one: Nortex’s high-density polyurethane-foam injections. This highly-efficient, cost-effective repair option is, often, half the cost of new concrete, and the material hardens within minutes, allowing for minimal disruption.
The foam is forced beneath the pavement which, in turn, allows the concrete slabs to regain their correct grades and elevations. The foam seeps into the sub-base of the concrete and binds soil particles which strengthen the base material. The hydrophobic qualities of polyurethane foam allow it to repel water and be unaffected by moisture.
Nortex offers another critical specialty: concrete grinding. Our very own ‘PolyGrinding’ procedure addresses issues below concrete slabs and remedies issues of faulted pavement on top of slabs. It is no wonder that transportation departments across the country rave about these two concrete-repair options. They are proven to be more efficient and more cost-effective when compared to full-depth repair and dowel bar retrofit.

Nortex has over 35 years of experience
Nortex’s polyurethane-foam injections and concrete grinding procedures are used to remedy a multitude of concrete-repair applications involving:
*** Airport Runways – cracking and severe pavement settlement due to poor base and sub-grade soils – fast repairs allow for quickly-resumed flight operations.
*** Bridges – slab settlement at approach and departure areas caused by unstable foundation soils, water penetration, and constant impact and pressure – soils are stabilized and strengthened, eliminating future settlement and erosion.
*** Pavements – faulted pavements due to poorly-compacted foundation soils, water penetration, and heavy tractor-trailer loads – polyurethane-foam injections and ‘PolyGrinding’ are, commonly, used here.
*** Industrial/Commercial – settlement due to voids beneath concrete foundations – concrete foundations are quickly repositioned to their original elevations with the polyurethane foam becoming as dense as 10 lb/ft3 – Nortex’s foundation-lifting process can extend the life of slabs that are still in good shape.
*** Infrastructure – leaks, voids, and deterioration of large pipes, culverts, manholes, drop inlets, and more due to water infiltration, settling, poor compaction of foundation soils, etc. Costly repairs, such as excavation, can be bypassed.
*** Ponding Water – pooling of water, where the pavement has settled, caused by erosion of subgrade soils – foam injection lifts the concrete to its proper grade, allowing for proper water flow.
*** Sidewalk Division – settling of sidewalks resulting in trip hazards – the lightweight property of sidewalks, when compared to other concrete structures, means extra care must be taken during the lifting and leveling. Our three crews specialize in this delicate operation where preventing over-lifting is critical. Sidewalks can be lifted back to their original position in as little as 30 minutes.
*** Soil Densification – pavement-surface failures caused by weak or insufficient support in the foundation soil – patching or replacing the surface pavement and the replacement of foundation soils can be ineffective, temporary, and costly. Polyurethane foam strengthens the sub-grade soils to extend the life of the surface pavement.
