WE FIX SINKING CONCRETE
Concrete Leveling & Lifting in Decatur, GA
Concrete slabs rest on subgrade, which is a fancy term for the earth below. When the subgrade begins to weaken and settle, the slab loses its support. This can be caused by a variety of factors…weather, rain, leaks, excess weight to name a few. While the root causes may vary, the end result is always the same. Structural damage.
Over time, often in months, slabs begin to stress, then crack and, eventually, break
apart and sink. This leads to trip hazards, unsightly appearance and a reduction in property values. This damage is structural – not cosmetic. Neither patching nor a new surface will solve the problem.
This happens to driveways, parking areas, pool decks, foundations, sidewalks, patios, porches, steps and seawall. Pretty much any concrete slab that depends on the earth below for support.
In the past eight years, we have enabled over 10,000 clients to “save” their concrete structures through our Poly Foamjection process. In almost every case, clients realized 50-75% savings versus replacement. With a 10-year FULL warranty on top. We serve markets in Florida, Texas, Georgia and adjacent states.
Our Foamjection process is:
- Fast – most jobs are completed same day and surfaces are usable in an hour.
- Environmentally safe – EPA approved.
- Highly cost effective – 50% plus savings.
- Durable – Full 10-year warranty
If you live in Florida, Georgia or Texas and your concrete slab is:
- Cracking and breaking into fragments.
- Settling or outright sinking.
- Unlevel creating trip hazards.
- Makes an unsightly appearance reducing property value
We understand how important it is to secure your property investment and protect your family. 10,000 clients have already repaired, instead of replaced, their damaged concrete with Poly Lift USA.
Please don’t wait for your driveway to become so damaged that repair is not possible. If cracked pieces become too fragmented (less than 3 feet square) repair will no longer be an option.

Why do I need my concrete leveled?
The two most common reasons customers call us to fix their concrete are: water concerns and tripping hazards. If your uneven concrete is near your home, and no longer directing water away from your home’s foundation, you can have some very serious problems down the road. Foundation repair can run in the tens of thousands of dollars. Tripping hazards caused by sinking concrete also present a possibility of tripping, for which you could be held liable – not to mention the shabby appearance created by uneven concrete.
What is the cost of concrete leveling or lifting?
The cost of concrete leveling depends mainly on how much material is needed to fill the void beneath your sinking concrete. Jobs with larger voids or more surface area may cost more, but in most cases, concrete lifting is far more affordable than full concrete replacement. To get an accurate price for your specific project, contact us today for a FREE estimate.
How much money will I save by using Foamjection instead of replacing the concrete?
The short answer: a lot. Poly foam concrete lifting is typically half the cost—or even less—than full concrete replacement. Plus, there’s no demolition, no waiting days to cure, and no mess to clean up. You save money, time, and hassle.
Why is my concrete sinking or uneven?
The root issue is usually the soil underneath your slab. Over time, soil can erode, compress, or shift due to water, poor compaction, drainage issues, or even burrowing animals. This creates empty pockets—or voids—under the concrete, which causes it to sink. Poly foam fills those voids and stabilizes the soil beneath.
What do you mean by a "void" beneath the concrete?
A void is simply an empty space under the slab where soil has washed away or settled. When left unfilled, these voids cause the concrete above to crack, tilt, or sink. Our Foamjection process fills these voids completely and brings the slab back to a safe, level position.
Can rodents or pests cause concrete to sink?
Yes, they can. Rodents like chipmunks or groundhogs may tunnel under slabs, creating weak spots or voids. Over time, this can lead to sinking or cracking. Foamjection is a great way to fill those gaps and restore support to the slab.
What are the benefits of polyjacking over replacing the concrete?
Replacing concrete is time-consuming, messy, and expensive. With polyurethane foam lifting, there’s no need to rip out slabs or wait weeks for concrete to cure. Most jobs take just a few hours, and the surface is ready to use almost immediately. It’s cleaner, faster, and more affordable than tearing everything out.
How long does poly leveling take?
Most Foamjection jobs take between 1 hour and half a day, depending on the size of the area. The best part? The results are instant. Your slab is lifted, stabilized, and ready to use—right away.
Do I need to be home during the repair?
Not necessarily. For outdoor projects like sidewalks, driveways, or patios, you don’t need to be there. If we’re working inside, like a garage floor or interior concrete slab, someone will need to give us access.
What’s the process for poly foam leveling?
We drill small holes in the concrete, inject high-density polyurethane foam underneath, and lift the slab back into place. The foam expands quickly, fills any voids, and hardens in minutes to provide long-lasting support. It’s a simple but powerful solution.
Why should I level instead of replace my concrete?
Unless your concrete is completely broken or crumbling, leveling is almost always the better choice. Foam lifting costs a fraction of replacement, causes little to no disruption, and delivers fast results with zero mess. It’s the smart way to fix sunken concrete.
Will there be a lot of noise, dust, or debris?
Not at all. Our equipment is compact and quiet—no louder than a lawn mower. The holes we drill are small (about the size of a dime), and we clean everything up before we leave. There’s very little dust or debris involved.
How much space do you need to work?
We don’t need much. Our hoses can reach tight spots, and our equipment fits in most driveways or side yards. Just contact us and we’ll let you know exactly what’s needed based on your project.
Will my yard or sprinkler system be damaged?
No. Our process is non-invasive and safe for landscaping and irrigation systems. The only exception is if the yard is very muddy or soft, in which case our equipment may leave slight impressions.
Can poly leveling crack my concrete?
Cracking is rare with polyurethane foam, especially when done by experienced pros. Any minor cracks that do appear are usually pre-existing and hidden underneath the slab. Our process is designed to minimize movement stress and prevent damage.
How many holes will be drilled?
It depends on the area and the size of the voids. We use the fewest holes necessary to get a safe, even lift—each hole is small, clean, and patched when we’re done.
Will the patched holes match the rest of the concrete?
Patches may look slightly lighter at first, especially on older concrete, but they’ll blend in more over time as the slab naturally weathers. We always do our best to match the finish as closely as possible.
Can Foamjection cause any problems?
When done by professionals like us, poly leveling is a safe, reliable process. The only real risk comes from hiring the wrong company. Poor technique or cheap materials can lead to weak lifts or future sinking. We use top-grade foam and proven methods to get the job done right.
What happens if I ignore sunken or uneven concrete?
Letting your concrete continue to sink can lead to serious problems. Water may start pooling or flowing toward your foundation, which can cause costly water damage or even structural issues. Sinking slabs also become tripping hazards, putting you or others at risk for injury—and liability. If ignored long enough, the slab may crack or break completely, turning what could have been a simple repair into a full replacement job at double or triple the cost.
How can I prevent concrete from sinking in the first place?
It all starts with stable soil. Make sure the ground under your slab is properly compacted and that drainage flows away from your home—not toward it. Faulty gutters, poor grading, or leaky plumbing can all erode the soil under your concrete, creating voids that lead to sinking. Regular maintenance and proper water management can go a long way in preventing future issues.
Does poly leveling lower concrete slabs?
No. Poly foam lifting (Foamjection) is designed to raise sunken slabs—not lower them. However, in cases where one section is higher than another, we can often lift surrounding slabs to create a smooth, even transition. If a slab has been raised by something like tree roots, it may require a different solution like trimming or removal.
Can you level my sidewalk if tree roots caused the lift?
If the concrete was pushed up by active tree roots underneath, lifting isn’t the solution. However, if roots simply caused surrounding soil to shift or erode, Foamjection can usually fill the void and bring the slab back into place. Each situation is unique, and we’ll assess it during your free estimate.
What is “grinding,” and do you offer it?
Concrete grinding is a method of shaving down raised sections of concrete. It’s sometimes used when lifting isn’t an option, like when a slab has been physically pushed up by a root or structural element. We specialize in lifting with poly foam—not grinding—but we can advise on the best solution based on your situation.
How long will your concrete leveling service last?
Our Foamjection solution is built to last. The high-density polyurethane foam we use won’t wash out, shrink, or break down over time. It permanently fills voids, stabilizes the soil, and supports the concrete. While we can’t control what the soil does in the future, the lift itself is strong, clean, and reliable for years to come.
Is any maintenance required after foam leveling?
Usually, very little. To help prevent future sinking, we may recommend sealing joints, caulking cracks, or improving drainage around the area. These simple fixes go a long way in protecting your newly leveled slab.
Does sunken concrete mean I have a foundation problem?
Not necessarily. Most sinking slabs are caused by shifting or eroding soil—not structural foundation issues. However, if you’re seeing cracking walls or doors sticking inside the home, it may be worth having your foundation inspected. In most cases, slab settlement is isolated and fixable with Foamjection.
Can I do poly leveling as a DIY project?
Nope. Foamjection requires professional-grade equipment and precise control to avoid over-lifting, under-filling, or damaging the slab. This isn’t a weekend DIY job. We’ve heard stories of creative attempts using jacks and makeshift tools, but the results are rarely consistent—and it can end up costing more in the long run. Save the headache. Call our crew and we’ll do it right the first time.
Do you offer any kind of guarantee?
Yes. We stand behind our work with a limited warranty against significant settlement caused by foam shrinkage or failure. Our materials are strong, stable, and built for long-term performance. We’ve completed thousands of successful lifts and take pride in delivering lasting results.
Will I need a building permit for concrete leveling?
Nope! Foamjection is considered a repair, not new construction—so no permit is required in most cases.
