Concrete Leveling & Raising in Highland, MD

Highland’s semi-rural setting, mature tree roots, Piedmont clay-rich soils, rolling topography, and seasonal storms can be tough on slabs. Common reasons concrete sinks here include:

• Loose or uncompacted fill around newer driveways and walkways off MD-108
• Clay-heavy soils that expand when wet and shrink during dry spells
• Erosion from frequent rain and stormwater runoff on sloped lots near the Patuxent River watershed
• Natural settling under patios, sidewalks, and garage floors, especially around older farmettes and estate homes

Left unaddressed, these issues can worsen over time, causing water pooling, deeper cracking, and safety risks.

Replacing a slab can cost thousands and take days. Slabjacking (also called concrete leveling) is usually the smarter choice for Highland, MD because it’s:

• Quick: Most jobs are completed in a single day.
• Cost-effective: Typically 50–70% less than full replacement.
• Non-invasive: No slab tear-outs or damage to landscaping and rural drives.
• Eco-friendly: Reuses your existing concrete to reduce waste.

Many Highland homeowners are amazed at how quickly their concrete is restored with no demolition and no long curing times.

We use traditional slabjacking and high-density polyurethane foam lifting, depending on site conditions and soil stability.

What to Expect:

1. Inspection: We evaluate the slab and soils to choose the best method
2. Drill: Small, precisely placed holes are drilled in the slab.
3. Pump: High-density polyurethane foam is injected to gently lift and support the slab.
4. Seal: Holes are patched; most surfaces are ready for use within hours.

This process provides a long-lasting fix with minimal disruption to your Highland property.
