Concrete Porch Leveling

Uneven concrete porches create safety concerns and affect how your home looks and functions. Settling can cause steps and porch slabs to shift out of alignment, create trip hazards at entryways, and allow water to pool near the foundation. Over time, these issues can worsen as soil continues to move beneath the concrete.

Foamjection lifts sunken porch slabs back into position without removing or replacing the concrete. With decades of experience in concrete lifting, we use an eco-friendly polyurethane foam made with renewable content to restore support beneath the porch, improve drainage, and create a safer, more level entryway—ready for use immediately and at a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Why Porches Sink

Porches sink when the soil beneath the concrete loses support. Common causes include:

  • Soil erosion from water runoff
  • Poor drainage near the home
  • Backfilled soil settling over time
  • Freeze-thaw movement
  • Voids forming under the porch slab

As support weakens, the porch settles and can continue to shift if left unaddressed.


Signs Your Porch Needs Leveling

You may need porch leveling if you notice:

  • Uneven or sloped porch surfaces
  • Cracks forming near the home
  • Gaps between the porch and foundation
  • Water draining toward the house
  • Trip hazards at entry points

Addressing these issues early helps protect your home and improve safety.

Our Fix: Polyurethane Porch Leveling

Foamjection levels porches 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.

  • Small access holes are drilled
  • Foam is injected beneath the porch
  • The slab is lifted and stabilized
  • Holes are patched after lifting

Most porch leveling projects are completed in one visit, and many surfaces are ready for use the same day.

Why Homeowners Choose Porch Leveling

Homeowners choose porch leveling because it fixes uneven surfaces without the cost and disruption of replacement. Lifting improves safety, drainage, and alignment with the home while keeping existing concrete in place.

  • Costs less than replacement
  • No tear-out or heavy equipment
  • Minimal impact to landscaping
  • Fast completion time
  • Long-term support under the slab

For porches that are intact but uneven, leveling is often the most practical solution.

Porch Leveling Questions

What causes porches to become uneven?

Porches become uneven due to soil erosion, poor drainage, freeze-thaw cycles, and soil movement under the slab.

In many cases, yes. Leveling costs less, takes less time, and avoids removing existing concrete.

Concrete Replacements vs Concrete Raising

Most projects are completed in a single visit – in a matter of a few hours. No big trucks. No heavy equipment. No mess. No stress. Just level concrete. 

No. Porch leveling does not disturb your home’s foundation. The polyurethane foam is injected below the porch slab to restore support beneath the concrete, not the foundation itself.

If a porch is structurally connected to the foundation, that relationship is evaluated before lifting begins. The process is planned to ensure the porch is raised safely without placing stress on the home. In most cases, porch leveling is completed without any issues and helps improve drainage and stability near the foundation.

Yes. Leveling helps improve drainage near the home by restoring the proper slope of the concrete.

When a porch or slab is lifted back into position, water is able to drain away from the house instead of pooling near the foundation. This helps reduce moisture issues and protects nearby concrete and structures.

 

The repair holes are small and discreet and are patched after the leveling process is complete. Over time, these patches often blend in further as the concrete weathers, making them less noticeable.

For decorative or colored concrete, care is taken to use patch materials that closely match the surrounding surface whenever possible. While the patches may be visible up close, they are far less noticeable than seams or surface changes caused by full concrete replacement.

Yes. The foam is safe to use near entryways. It is injected below the concrete and cures into a stable waterproof material that stays in place.

Once cured, the foam does not leach into the soil, does not release harmful chemicals, and does not affect nearby structures, doors, or foot traffic areas. This makes it a safe and reliable option for lifting porches, steps, and entryway slabs while restoring proper support and stability.
