Uneven walkways and sidewalks can create trip hazards, collect water, and make everyday foot traffic unsafe. Even small changes in height can lead to falls, drainage issues, and continued surface damage if left unaddressed.
Walkway and sidewalk leveling lifts settled concrete back into position without removing or replacing the slab. Foamjection uses polyurethane concrete lifting to restore support beneath the surface and create safer, more even walking areas around your home.
Sidewalks and walkways sink when the soil beneath the concrete loses strength. Common causes include:
Once support is lost, slabs settle unevenly and the height difference becomes a safety concern.
You may need leveling if you notice:
Fixing these issues early helps reduce safety risks and further slab movement.
If nearby concrete has also shifted, driveway leveling, steps leveling, or porch leveling may be needed to restore consistent height and support across connected surfaces. Addressing all affected areas together helps prevent future settling and uneven transitions.
Foamjection levels walkways and sidewalks by injecting high-density polyurethane foam beneath the concrete. The foam expands to fill voids, lift the slab, and restore firm support below the surface.
Most walkway and sidewalk leveling projects are completed in one visit, and many surfaces are ready for use the same day.
Homeowners choose sidewalk leveling because it removes trip hazards without the cost and disruption of replacement. Lifting restores safe walking surfaces, improves drainage, and helps prevent further settlement.
For concrete that is still intact but uneven, leveling is often the most practical solution.
Sidewalks and walkways can become uneven when soil beneath the slab erodes, shifts, or expands and contracts with changing weather. Poor drainage and freeze-thaw cycles often contribute to this movement over time.
In most cases, yes. Leveling costs less, takes less time, and avoids removing existing concrete.
Most projects are completed in a single visit, in just a few hours.
Yes. Leveling restores even slab height and helps reduce tripping risks.
The holes are small and patched after lifting. They are much less noticeable than replacement seams.
Yes. Leveling restores the proper slope of the concrete so water drains away from walking areas instead of pooling on the surface.
Yes. The foam used for concrete lifting is safe around your home and property.
Once injected, the polyurethane foam cures quickly and remains sealed below the concrete surface. It does not leach into the soil, does not release toxins, and does not break down over time. The material stays in place and provides long-term support beneath the slab.
The foam is also considered an eco-friendly concrete repair option. It is lightweight, requires no concrete removal, and helps reduce landfill waste by lifting existing slabs instead of replacing them. In addition, the foam contains renewable content and is designed to perform without harming surrounding soil, plants, or structures.
This makes polyurethane concrete lifting a safe, stable, and environmentally responsible solution for residential concrete repairs.
