Concrete Leveling Process
How Polyurethane Concrete Leveling Works
Uneven concrete usually starts below the surface.
Over time, soil underneath concrete slabs can shift, wash away, or settle because of water erosion, poor drainage, weak soil, or freeze-thaw cycles. Once the concrete loses support underneath, the slab begins to sink, crack, tilt, or separate.
That’s where polyurethane concrete leveling comes in.
At Apex Concrete Leveling, we use a modern foam injection process to lift and stabilize sinking concrete without tearing it out and replacing it. This method is fast, clean, minimally invasive, and designed to provide long-lasting support beneath the slab.
Our 3-Step Concrete Leveling Process
Step 1
Drill Small Access Holes
We begin by drilling small holes through the affected concrete slab. These holes are typically about the size of a dime and allow us to safely reach the empty spaces and weak soil beneath the concrete.
Compared to traditional mudjacking, polyurethane foam leveling uses much smaller holes, making the repair cleaner and less noticeable after patching.
Step 2
Inject High-Density Polyurethane Foam
Next, we carefully inject expanding polyurethane foam beneath the slab.
As the foam expands, it fills empty voids, stabilizes loose soil, and gently lifts the concrete back toward its proper position. The lifting process is controlled carefully to help achieve a smooth and even result.
The foam is lightweight but extremely strong once cured. It helps support the slab without adding excessive weight to the soil underneath.
Step 3
Patch The Holes & Clean The Area
Once the slab is level and stable, we patch the small drill holes and clean the work area.
Because polyurethane foam cures quickly, most concrete surfaces are ready to use the same day. There is minimal disruption to your property, and no major demolition or excavation is required.
Our goal is to leave your property clean, safe, and looking better than when we arrived.
This process can be used on many types of concrete surfaces, including:
What Causes Concrete To Sink?
Concrete settlement is very common throughout Eastern Connecticut because of changing soil conditions and weather exposure.
Some of the most common causes include:
- Water erosion beneath the slab
- Poor drainage around the home
- Freeze-thaw cycles
- Soil settling over time
- Weak or poorly compacted soil
- Voids forming beneath concrete
- Heavy moisture changes in the ground
As these conditions develop, the concrete gradually loses support underneath and begins to settle unevenly.
Benefits Of Polyurethane Concrete Leveling
Fast Repairs – Most projects are completed in just a few hours.
Same-Day Use – Many concrete surfaces are ready to walk or drive on the same day.
Minimal Disruption – No major demolition or large excavation around your property.
Small Drill Holes – Our process uses small injection holes that are patched after the lift.
Long-Lasting Support – The foam helps stabilize weak soil and fill hidden voids beneath the slab.
Cost Effective – Concrete leveling can cost far less than replacing the slab entirely.
