Just when we thought it was time to start the patio makeover, we found major erosion under our concrete aggregate. So in this video I show you how John and my dad fixed the void under the concrete with poly foam and CPVC pipes. Plus, a huge tip to avoid a huge mess like we had :)
UPDATE: In the video I say to wait 15 seconds between pipes to avoid spraying, but I meant to say 2 minutes. Wait at least 2 minutes and use a towel to prevent spraying.
TOOLS USED (as an Amazon affiliate, I may earn a small commission on qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you):
Secure Set Spray Foam (www.secureset....)
1/2” diameter CPVC pipe (we got ours from Ace Hardware www.acehardwar... )

3/8 concrete drill bit (bit.ly/3wtcbee)
Work gloves
Respirator
Goggles
Reinforced fiberglass strip packing tape (www.acehardwar...)
Chalk
Recommended long sleeve shirt - cover up everything!
NOTE: The company who makes the foam also provides helpful videos. Be sure to watch these videos before filling your concrete void: • Secure Set Spray Foam:...

It would have been nice if you showed the product and how it works prior, but thats one way to correct. Great job on partial/limited information.

Excellent video. Love your channel. I am moved by your words about a log degrading under the concrete and thus leaving a gap. You are proposing an hypothesis for how a gap (or a void) can form in the ground beneath concrete. Decay happens in the presence of soil (not it's absence) and the soil remains. Gaps or voids beneath and/or near the perimeter of concrete is typically created by standing water. For us it took 18 years, but standing water finally eroded a complete path into my crawlspace and then into my basement.

Good job! Such a pain. We have a front porch that is fine, but the dirt under it is pulling away! I have seen a snake coming out from under the porch. Time to do something!! TY for your videov& tips!

We have a patio that is lifting up under the wooden steps to our back door. The cement has lifted at least 2 inches by the foundation. Our steps mini deck4x4 is all slanting now. What do we do
