How It Works
Effective Concrete Leveling in MD, NVA & DC
Concrete Slab Jacking Inc. fixes sunken concrete without total replacement. We raise concrete from beneath to adjust an uneven slab. Our technique saves you time and money. We inject a strong base material composed of polyurethane foam under the existing concrete to raise it back to alignment. This closes gaps and separations in the slab, providing lasting stability with robust and reliable material. Slab jacking is the perfect solution for sinking slab floors, driveways, sidewalks, patios, and more and our repairs come with a 3 Year Warranty.
How Concrete Raising Works
We inject HMI Polyurethane expanding foam underneath sunken concrete slabs. First, we drill small, 3/8-inch holes at strategic locations on the sunken slab. Then we pump and inject the polyfoam underneath the slab using sealed, specialized equipment. The polyfoam expands and fills the voids as well as compacts soils beneath the concrete. As the foam expands and hardens, it puts pressure on the slab, lifting it back to a level position. Once the foam raises the concrete to the desired level, we patch the holes with grout and trowel smooth until they are nearly invisible. This technique is also known as the following:
- Concrete lifting
- Concrete leveling
- Concrete raising
- Void filling
