Poly Lift Concrete: What Homeowners Need to Know Before Replacing Your Slab
Uneven Concrete? Don’t Replace It Yet.
If your driveway, sidewalk, patio, or even garage floor has started to sink or slope, your first thought might be, “I guess we’ll need to replace it.” Before you spend thousands tearing out and replacing your concrete, it’s worth learning about poly lift concrete, a fast, clean, and cost-effective way to restore your slabs.
What Is Poly Lift Concrete?
Poly lift concrete, sometimes called poly raise concrete or polyurethane concrete leveling, uses a specialized expanding foam injected under your concrete. The foam expands, gently lifting your slab back into place and stabilizing the ground underneath.
Small drill holes
Fast cure time (ready to use the same day)
No mess, heavy equipment, or long wait times
Long-lasting results
Where Can It Be Used?
While many people think of concrete leveling for driveways and sidewalks, poly lift concrete is also perfect for:
Garage floors
Basements
Patios
Garage aprons
Interior slab floors that have sunk or cracked
Why Does Concrete Sink?
Concrete can settle over time due to:
Soil erosion or washout
Poor compaction when the home was built
Seasonal moisture changes (freeze-thaw cycles)
Heavy equipment or vehicle loads
Ignoring sunken slabs can lead to trip hazards, water pooling, or worsening cracks that are more expensive to fix later.
Poly Lift vs. Replacement: The Benefits
Faster: Most jobs completed in hours, not days.
Cleaner: No jackhammers, skid steers, or large tear-outs.
Cost-Effective: Often 50-70% less than replacing concrete.
Eco-Friendly: Uses fewer resources and reduces landfill waste.
Long-Lasting: Seals voids and stabilizes soil to prevent further sinking.
