FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Concrete leveling is a repair technique that raises and stabilizes sunken or uneven concrete slabs. Rather than replacing the entire slab, we inject material beneath the concrete to lift it back to its original position. This method is faster, less invasive, and more cost-effective than full replacement.

Signs that your concrete may need leveling include: uneven or sunken sections, cracks in the concrete, water pooling in certain areas, trip hazards between slabs, doors or gates that don't close properly, and visible gaps between the concrete and adjacent structures like your home's foundation.

When performed correctly, concrete leveling can last 10-15 years or more. The longevity depends on factors like soil conditions, drainage, and the quality of materials used. We use high-grade polyurethane foam and proven mudjacking techniques that provide long-lasting results.

Concrete leveling is a long-term solution, though no repair is truly permanent. The key to maximizing longevity is addressing the underlying cause of settlement, such as drainage issues or soil problems. We assess these factors during our free inspection and provide recommendations.

Polyurethane foam leveling uses a lightweight, expanding foam that's injected through small holes (about the size of a penny). It cures quickly and doesn't add significant weight to the soil. Mudjacking uses a cement-based slurry injected through larger holes. While both are effective, foam is often preferred for its lighter weight, faster cure time, and more precise control.

The best method depends on your specific situation. Polyurethane foam is ideal for areas where weight is a concern, when you need quick cure times, or for precision leveling. Mudjacking may be more cost-effective for larger areas or when budget is the primary concern. We'll recommend the best option during your free assessment.

We use high-density polyurethane foam for foam leveling projects and a specially formulated cement-limestone slurry for mudjacking. All materials are chosen for their durability, environmental safety, and proven performance in Central Texas soil conditions.

Yes, the polyurethane foam we use is environmentally inert once cured. It won't leach chemicals into the soil or groundwater. The foam is also moisture-resistant and won't break down over time like some other materials.

Most residential projects are completed in just a few hours. The exact time depends on the size of the area and the extent of the settling. Unlike concrete replacement, which can take days or weeks, leveling allows you to use your concrete again the same day in most cases.

With polyurethane foam leveling, you can typically walk on the concrete within 15-30 minutes and drive on it within a few hours. Mudjacking requires a bit more cure time—usually 24-48 hours before vehicle traffic.

No, concrete leveling is minimally invasive. We drill small holes directly through the concrete slab and inject the leveling material below. Once complete, the holes are filled and patched. There's no excavation, no heavy equipment tearing up your property, and minimal cleanup.

First, we drill small injection holes through the concrete. Then we pump either polyurethane foam or mudjacking slurry beneath the slab. The material fills voids and expands (in the case of foam) to lift the concrete to the desired level. Finally, we patch the injection holes and clean up.

Concrete leveling typically costs 50-75% less than full concrete replacement. Actual costs depend on the size of the area, the method used, the extent of the settling, and accessibility. We provide free, no-obligation estimates so you know exactly what to expect.

Replacement requires demolishing the old concrete, hauling it away, preparing the base, pouring new concrete, and waiting for it to cure. Leveling skips most of these steps—we simply lift and stabilize your existing concrete. Less labor, less material, less time equals lower cost.

Yes! We offer completely free, no-obligation estimates. One of our technicians will assess your concrete, explain your options, and provide a detailed quote. There's no pressure and no hidden fees.

We understand that unexpected repairs can strain your budget. Contact us to discuss payment options. We're committed to making concrete leveling accessible to homeowners and businesses throughout Central Texas.

We serve Greater Waco and Central Texas. This includes Waco, Hewitt, Woodway, Robinson, Bellmead, Lacy-Lakeview, McGregor, Temple, Killeen, Gatesville, and surrounding communities. Not sure if we serve your area? Give us a call—we're happy to help.

We try to accommodate scheduling requests as quickly as possible, often within a few days. For the best availability, we recommend scheduling at least a week in advance, especially during our busy seasons (spring and fall).

We primarily work Monday through Friday, but we can sometimes accommodate weekend appointments for customers with special scheduling needs. Contact us to discuss your situation.

Concrete leveling typically can't be performed in rain or when concrete is wet. If weather forces a postponement, we'll contact you to reschedule at the earliest available time. We monitor forecasts closely to minimize disruptions.

Yes, we stand behind our work with a written warranty. Specific warranty terms depend on the project and will be outlined in your service agreement. Our warranties cover both materials and workmanship.

If settling occurs within the warranty period due to our work, we'll return to make it right at no additional cost. If settling occurs due to new soil conditions or drainage issues that develop after the repair, we'll assess the situation and provide options.

Yes, we are fully licensed and insured. We carry liability insurance to protect your property and workers' compensation to protect our team. We're happy to provide proof of insurance upon request.
