The process involves drilling small, strategically placed holes in the affected concrete and injecting a specialized expanding foam beneath the slab. As the foam expands, it fills voids in the underlying soil, stabilizes weak areas, and gently raises the concrete back toward its original position.
​
While polyurethane foam injection is an excellent repair method, every project must be evaluated individually before work begins. Concrete settlement can occur for many reasons, including soil erosion, poor compaction, drainage issues, plumbing leaks, or natural ground movement. Identifying the root cause is essential to determining whether lifting is the best solution and ensuring the repair delivers long-lasting results.
​
The condition of the existing concrete is also a critical factor in the evaluation process. Concrete that is structurally sound but has settled is often an ideal candidate for polyurethane lifting. However, slabs with severe deterioration, extensive cracking, significant spalling, or structural damage may require alternative repair methods or replacement. A thorough inspection helps determine whether the concrete can be safely and effectively lifted while meeting performance expectations.
