Uneven concrete is more than just an eyesore—it’s a hazard that can lead to injury, water damage and reduced property value. At Mid Michigan Concrete Lifting, we specialize in polyurethane foam lifting, the most effective way to raise and stabilize concrete slabs. If you’ve been wondering, “how does concrete levelling work?”, here’s a breakdown of the process and why it’s a smart investment for Michigan homeowners.
Step 1: Inspection and Assessment
Every successful repair starts with a proper inspection. Our team visits your property to examine the affected areas, measure the extent of settling, and check for underlying voids or water issues. We determine whether polyurethane foam is the right solution and provide a clear quote.
Step 2: Small Holes, Big Impact
Once approved, we drill small, ½-inch holes into the sunken concrete slab. These access points allow us to inject the foam with precision. Unlike mudjacking, which requires larger holes and heavy slurry, our method is minimally invasive and clean.
Step 3: Polyurethane Foam Injection
Through each hole, we inject a specialized expanding foam. The foam flows into empty pockets beneath the slab and expands to lift the concrete back to its original level. Because the foam sets quickly, adjustments can be made in real time for maximum accuracy.
Step 4: Realignment and Seal
As the foam hardens, it stabilizes the concrete and helps seal the area from moisture intrusion. The slab becomes level, secure and ready for use—often within minutes of the repair. We then fill the holes with a durable patch that blends with the surrounding surface.
Step 5: Long-Term Protection
One of the best things about polyurethane foam lifting is its durability. The foam won’t wash out, shrink or degrade over time, making it an ideal fix for Michigan’s freeze-thaw cycles and wet weather. It also improves drainage and helps prevent future settling.
Our concrete levelling services are perfect for sidewalks, patios, garage floors, driveways and more. Whether you’re looking to boost curb appeal or eliminate safety risks, we’ll make sure your surfaces are level, stable and built to last.
