Concrete Leveling

If you have uneven concrete around your home, you are not alone. Concrete slabs sink for a few simple reasons. The soil underneath settles over time, water washes away the dirt below, or the ground was not packed tight enough when your concrete was first poured. When this happens, you end up with cracks, trip hazards, and surfaces that pool water instead of draining properly.

Here is the good news: you do not always need to tear out and replace sunken concrete. Professional concrete leveling can lift your slabs back to their original position for a fraction of the cost. This process is sometimes called slabjacking or mudjacking, and it works by pumping material under your concrete to push it back up.

Your walkways, driveways, patios, and garage floors all depend on stable ground beneath them. When that ground shifts or erodes, your concrete follows. Instead of living with the problem or spending thousands on replacement, leveling gives you a fast, affordable fix that can last for years.

We see sunken concrete all over Land O Lakes. It happens to driveways that were installed decades ago and to newer patios built on soil that was not properly compacted. No matter when your concrete was poured, the solution is the same. Lifting and leveling restores both the look and function of your outdoor surfaces.

Concrete leveling is straightforward, but it requires experience and the right equipment to do it correctly. Here is how we handle every project from start to finish.

Step 1: Inspection and Assessment

We start by inspecting your concrete to see how much it has sunk and where the problem areas are. We check for cracks, drainage issues, and any signs of soil erosion underneath. This helps us figure out exactly how much lifting is needed and whether leveling is the right solution.

Step 2: Drilling Small Access Holes

Next, we drill small holes in the sunken concrete, usually about the size of a penny. These holes are where we will pump in the leveling material. The holes are placed strategically so they do not weaken the slab or show up once the job is done.

Step 3: Pumping in the Leveling Material

We use a special pump to inject a leveling compound under your concrete. This material fills the voids and lifts the slab back to its original height. The process is controlled and precise, so we can adjust the lift in real time. We make sure everything is even and properly aligned.

Step 4: Sealing and Finishing

Once your concrete is lifted, we seal the access holes so they blend in with the rest of the surface. The result is a smooth, level slab that looks just like it did before it sank. You can use the area right away, with no waiting for materials to cure or dry.

The entire process usually takes just a few hours, depending on the size of the area. You do not need to leave your home or avoid the space for days. We clean up when we are done, and your concrete is ready to use immediately.

If you are tired of tripping over uneven concrete or watching water pool in the wrong places, concrete leveling services can fix the problem fast. It is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve your property without the hassle of a full replacement.
