Uneven Porch Creating Gaps, Cracks & Unsafe Entryways?
A sinking porch can quickly become a safety and appearance problem around your home. Uneven concrete near your front entrance can create trip hazards, gaps near steps or doorways, drainage issues, and visible settling that hurts curb appeal. Many homeowners across Eastern Connecticut notice porch slabs slowly pulling away from the home or sinking unevenly over time.
At Apex Concrete Leveling, we help homeowners lift and stabilize settled porches using modern polyurethane foam concrete leveling. Instead of tearing out and replacing the concrete, our process raises the existing slab from underneath to help restore a safer and more level entryway with minimal disruption to your property.
Most porch leveling projects are completed in just a few hours and are ready to use the same day in most cases.
If other concrete areas around your home are becoming uneven too, Apex Concrete Leveling also provides professional driveway leveling, walkway & sidewalk leveling, steps leveling, and patio leveling services across Eastern Connecticut.
Why Porches Start Sinking Over Time
Porch slabs often sink when the soil beneath the concrete begins to settle, shift, or wash away. In Eastern Connecticut, freeze-thaw cycles, moisture exposure, and drainage problems can slowly create empty spaces beneath the porch.
As the porch loses support underneath, the concrete starts settling unevenly. This can lead to:
- Gaps forming near the home or steps
- Uneven porch slabs
- Cracks caused by settling
- Water collecting near the entrance
- Unsafe or uneven walking surfaces
The longer the problem is ignored, the worse the settlement usually becomes.
Signs Your Porch May Need Concrete Leveling
A sinking porch problem often starts gradually before becoming more noticeable over time.
Common warning signs include:
- Porch slabs pulling away from the home
- Uneven concrete near the entrance
- Cracks forming around the porch or steps
- Water pooling near the front door
- Gaps beneath the concrete slab
- Uneven transitions between steps and porch surfaces
- Slabs tilting or settling on one side
- Trip hazards around entryways
If you notice these issues, leveling the porch early can help prevent larger repairs and more expensive damage later.
Our Porch Leveling Process
Apex Concrete Leveling uses a fast, clean polyurethane foam lifting process to raise and stabilize sinking porches without the mess and cost of full replacement. Our process is designed to minimize disruption while helping restore a safer and more level surface around your home.
1. Drill Small Access Holes
We drill small holes through the affected porch slabs to reach the empty spaces beneath the concrete.
2. Inject Expanding Polyurethane Foam
High-density foam is injected beneath the slab where it expands to fill voids, stabilize weak soil, and carefully lift the porch back toward its proper position.
3. Patch The Holes & Clean The Area
Once the porch is properly lifted and stabilized, we patch the small drill holes and fully clean the work area. Most porch leveling projects are completed in just a few hours, and in many cases, the concrete is ready to use the same day.
Benefits Of Polyurethane Porch Leveling
Replacing a concrete porch can be expensive, disruptive, and time-consuming.
Polyurethane foam leveling offers a faster and more cost-effective solution for many sinking porch problems.
Benefits include:
- Avoid costly porch replacement
- Most jobs completed in hours
- Minimal disruption to your property
- Small drill holes with clean patching
- Same-day use in most cases
- Helps stabilize weak soil beneath the slab
- Lightweight material designed for long-term support
- Cleaner process compared to traditional mudjacking
For many homeowners, leveling the existing porch is a smarter option than tearing everything out and starting over.

FAQ About Porch Leveling
Can a sinking porch be lifted instead of replaced?
Yes. In many cases, a sinking porch can be lifted and stabilized using polyurethane foam concrete leveling instead of full replacement.
Why is my porch pulling away from the house?
This usually happens because the soil beneath the porch has settled or washed away over time, causing the slab to sink unevenly.
How long does porch leveling take?
Most porch leveling projects are completed in just a few hours depending on the size and condition of the slab.
Will the drill holes be noticeable after the repair?
The injection holes are small — usually about the size of a dime — and are patched after the lifting process for a clean appearance.
Is porch leveling less expensive than replacement?
Yes. Polyurethane porch leveling is often far more affordable than tearing out and replacing the entire concrete porch.
Can you level porches with steps attached?
In many cases, yes. We can often lift and stabilize porches and connected concrete steps depending on the condition of the concrete.
How soon can I use my porch after leveling?
Most porches are ready to use the same day because the polyurethane foam cures very quickly after installation.
Do you repair other uneven concrete around homes too?
Yes. Apex Concrete Leveling also provides garage floor leveling, pool deck leveling, and concrete slab leveling services across Eastern Connecticut.
