Concrete Leveling
Concrete leveling is a proven way to correct uneven, sunken, or settled concrete without the cost and disruption of full replacement. At Level Best Northwest, we use polyurethane foam lifting to raise and stabilize concrete slabs, restoring safety, improving drainage, and extending the life of your existing concrete. Most projects are completed in a single day with minimal impact to your home, landscape, or daily routine.
Is Your Concrete Showing Signs of Damage or Wear?
Concrete is designed to be a stable, durable surface, but it can only perform as well as the soil beneath it. When soil erodes, shifts, or compacts over time, concrete slabs can begin to sink, tilt, or crack.
Common problems we see with settled concrete include:
Uneven slabs that create trip hazards for family members, customers, or visitors
Concrete settling against a building, often causing water to puddle near foundations
Cracks that form and gradually widen as slabs shift and separate
Sidewalks, driveways, patios, garage floors, or pool decks that are no longer level
Uneven concrete is more than just an appearance issue. It can create safety risks, contribute to drainage problems, and make a property harder to sell or insure if left unaddressed.
How We Restore and Protect Your Concrete
In many cases, concrete that has settled can be repaired rather than replaced. If the slab is not excessively cracked or broken into too many sections, concrete leveling is often an effective solution.
Our concrete leveling process:
Small, discreet ⅝-inch holes are drilled into the affected concrete
Polyurethane concrete lifting foam is injected beneath the slab
As the foam expands, it fills voids in the soil and gently lifts the concrete
The slab is raised back to a practical, stable level, restoring function and safety
We use Eco-Rise polyurethane foam because it is lightweight, waterproof, and designed to cure quickly. This method allows us to correct uneven concrete without heavy equipment, extensive demolition, or long downtime.
Concrete leveling works well for:
Sidewalks and walkways
Driveways and garage floors
Patios and pool decks
Basements, crawl spaces, and other interior slabs
Why Repairing Concrete Is Often the Better Option
Concrete leveling offers significant advantages over tearing out and replacing existing concrete.
Key benefits of concrete leveling:
Cost-effective: Generally about half the cost of replacement
Fast turnaround: Most jobs are completed in one day
Minimal disruption: No heavy equipment and very little disturbance to landscaping
Eco-friendly: Existing concrete is preserved and kept out of landfills
Durable results: Foam cures quickly and helps prevent future soil erosion
By lifting and stabilizing the concrete you already have, you avoid unnecessary demolition, reduce waste, and protect the long-term integrity of your property. Concrete leveling is a smart, practical solution when replacement is not required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is concrete leveling?
Concrete leveling lifts sunken slabs back to their original height by injecting expanding polyurethane foam beneath the concrete. It fixes the cause, which is voids and settled soil, without tearing out and replacing the slab.
How long does concrete leveling last?
When the soil underneath is stabilized at the same time, concrete leveling is a long-term repair. Polyurethane foam does not absorb water or break down, so it holds the slab in place as long as the ground stays supported.
How much does concrete leveling cost compared to replacement?
Concrete leveling typically costs 30 to 50 percent less than full replacement, and most jobs are finished in a single day with no curing wait.
What kinds of concrete can be leveled?
We level driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors, pool decks, and entry steps. Almost any sunken exterior slab that is still structurally sound is a candidate for foam leveling.
How long does concrete leveling take?
Most residential jobs take a few hours. The polyurethane foam cures in about 15 minutes, the injection holes are patched, and the surface is ready to use the same day.
What areas does Level Best Northwest serve?
We serve the Yakima Valley and the Tri-Cities, including Yakima, Ellensburg, Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, Union Gap, and Wapato.
