Highways and roadways endure constant stress from heavy traffic, large vehicles, weather extremes, and long-term soil movement. Over time, concrete panels can settle, creating uneven transitions, dips, faulting, and drainage problems that compromise safety and ride quality.
Foamjection provides a targeted solution for highway concrete leveling and stabilization. By lifting settled slabs and strengthening weak soils beneath the roadway, we help transportation agencies correct problem areas quickly—without full-depth replacement or extended lane closures. The result is a safer, smoother surface that’s ready for traffic immediately after repairs – for fraction of the cost and time of replacement.
Highway concrete sinks when the soil beneath it loses strength. Common causes include:
As support weakens, slabs settle unevenly and roadway conditions decline.
Concrete leveling may be needed if you notice:
Addressing these issues early helps improve safety and extend pavement life.
If surrounding infrastructure is also affected, municipal concrete leveling, parking lot leveling, or loading docks & ramps may be needed to restore consistent elevation and support across connected surfaces.
Foamjection levels highway concrete by injecting high-density polyurethane foam beneath the slab. The foam expands to fill voids, lift the concrete, and restore firm support below the surface.
Most highway concrete leveling projects are completed efficiently, and many surfaces are ready for use the same day.
Property owners choose concrete leveling because it corrects uneven road surfaces without full reconstruction. Lifting restores smooth transitions, improves drainage, and reduces long-term maintenance needs.
For intact but uneven highway concrete, leveling is often the most practical solution.
Concrete leveling and stabilization can be used on roadway panels, shoulders, ramps, approach slabs, bridge approaches, intersections, and other concrete pavement sections affected by settlement.
Settlement is typically caused by soil erosion, water intrusion, poor subgrade compaction, freeze-thaw cycles, and repeated heavy vehicle loads. These conditions can create voids beneath large concrete panels, allowing them to drop or shift.
In many cases, yes. When the concrete itself is structurally sound, leveling can correct surface issues and underlying soil weakness, without the cost, time, and disruption of full reconstruction. It’s used to extend pavement life and address safety concerns efficiently.
Highway leveling is designed to be fast and precise. Many repairs can be completed within a single work day, allowing lanes to reopen quickly—often immediately after the work is finished.
Yes. Work is commonly performed in phases or during off-peak hours to reduce traffic impacts. We coordinate closely with project managers to align with traffic control plans and safety requirements.
The access holes required for foam injection are small and patched after the work is complete. They are minimal compared to traditional repair methods and do not affect roadway performance.
Often, yes. Restoring proper slab alignment can improve surface drainage, helping water flow away from joints and low spots that contribute to pavement deterioration.
Yes. The eco-friendly foam cures rapidly, becomes inert once installed, and is resistant to moisture. It is designed for long-term performance beneath concrete pavement.
