Concrete Stabilizing
Concrete stabilizing is a proactive solution designed to support concrete slabs before they settle or fail. At Level Best Northwest, we stabilize concrete by filling voids beneath the slab with polyurethane foam, preventing future sinking, cracking, and structural issues. This process protects your existing concrete, improves safety, and helps avoid costly repairs or replacement down the road, all with minimal disruption to your property.
Is Your Concrete Showing Signs of Damage or Wear?
Concrete does not fail overnight. In many cases, problems begin beneath the surface, where soil erosion or compaction creates voids under otherwise level slabs.
Common signs concrete may need stabilizing include:
Hollow sounds when walking across the concrete or bouncing a ball
Visible gaps beneath the slab when viewed from the side
Early or excessive cracking, even though the slab has not visibly sunk
Concrete near buildings where doors or windows begin to stick as slabs shift
Areas where water collects or flows toward cracks instead of away from structures
Unstable concrete is a safety concern and can lead to additional damage over time. Cracks allow water to enter, which accelerates soil erosion and freeze-thaw movement. Left untreated, these early warning signs often lead to settlement, uneven surfaces, and more extensive repairs.
How We Restore and Protect Your Concrete
Concrete stabilizing is ideal when voids exist beneath a slab, but the concrete itself has not yet significantly settled. In these cases, stabilizing the soil early can prevent the slab from sinking in the future.
Our concrete stabilizing process:
We assess the concrete to identify voids and areas of unstable soil
Polyurethane foam is injected beneath the slab
The foam expands to fill empty spaces and compact loose soil
The slab is stabilized and supported, reducing movement and future cracking
This process works well for:
Sidewalks and walkways
Driveways and garage floors
Pool decks and patios
Interior slabs and hard-to-reach areas
Because the foam is lightweight and waterproof, it provides long-term support without adding stress to the soil or surrounding structure.
Why Repairing Concrete Is Often the Better Option
Concrete stabilizing offers a practical alternative to full replacement, especially when problems are caught early.
Benefits of concrete stabilizing:
Prevents future settlement by addressing soil issues before slabs sink
Costs less than half the price of replacing concrete
Takes less time, with minimal disruption to daily activities
Improves safety by reducing cracking and uneven movement
Eco-friendly, since existing concrete stays in place and out of landfills
By stabilizing concrete early, you protect your investment, reduce long-term maintenance costs, and avoid unnecessary demolition. It’s a smart solution for homeowners and businesses looking to maintain safe, stable concrete surfaces.
