If you have uneven sidewalks, a sinking driveway, or a sunken patio, you may think your only option is to tear out and replace the concrete. Fortunately, that’s often not the case. At The Concrete Lifter, we help homeowners and businesses throughout Springfield, Missouri restore uneven concrete using polyurethane foam lifting—a fast, effective, and minimally invasive repair method.
What Is Polyurethane Foam Lifting?
Polyurethane foam lifting is a concrete leveling process that raises sunken slabs back to their proper position without replacing the existing concrete. Instead of removing the slab, a specialized polyurethane material is injected beneath it to fill empty spaces and provide support.
This method can be used on many types of concrete surfaces, including driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors, pool decks, and walkways.
How the Process Works
The repair process begins with a thorough assessment of the affected area. Once the cause and extent of the settlement have been identified, our team drills a series of small holes in the concrete.
Next, we inject a high-density polyurethane material beneath the slab. As the material expands, it fills the voids below the concrete and gently lifts the slab back toward its original position. Because the lifting process is carefully controlled, adjustments can be made with precision to achieve an even surface.
Once the desired height is reached, the injection holes are patched, leaving the concrete ready for use much sooner than traditional replacement methods.
Why Springfield Property Owners Choose Polyurethane Lifting
Polyurethane concrete lifting has become a popular solution because it offers several advantages over replacing concrete altogether.
Since the existing slab remains in place, there is no need for demolition or hauling away broken concrete. The polyurethane material is lightweight, durable, and designed to provide long-lasting support beneath the slab.
Many projects can also be completed in a single day, allowing homeowners and businesses to get back to using their property with minimal disruption.
Common Signs Your Concrete Needs Leveling
Concrete settlement can happen gradually, making it easy to overlook until it becomes a larger issue. You may benefit from polyurethane foam lifting if you notice:
- Uneven sidewalks or walkways
- A driveway that has begun to sink
- A patio with noticeable low spots
- Gaps beneath concrete slabs
- Trip hazards around your home or business
- Water pooling on concrete surfaces
Addressing these issues early can help prevent further movement and restore the appearance and functionality of your concrete.
