Q: How does commercial concrete lifting work?
A: We use polyurethane foam injection to lift and stabilize sinking or uneven concrete surfaces. The expanding foam fills voids under the slab, raises the concrete, and creates a strong, long-lasting foundation.
This process, also called poly leveling or polyjacking, is superior to mudjacking in many ways. The foam is lighter, stronger, cures faster, and is environmentally friendly. It also provides more precise lifting and requires fewer holes to be drilled.
Q: What types of commercial properties do you service?
A: We work with a wide range of commercial properties, including warehouses, factories, office buildings, retail stores, restaurants, hotels, apartment complexes, parking lots, and municipal sidewalks.
Q: Why should I lift my concrete instead of replacing it?
A: Concrete lifting is 50-75% more cost-effective than replacement, requires no demolition, and allows immediate use of the repaired surface. It’s a fast, clean, and durable alternative to full slab replacement and a better choice for your business.
Q: How do I know if my commercial property needs concrete leveling?
A: If you notice uneven surfaces, pooling water, cracks, or trip hazards, it’s time to consider concrete raising. These issues can pose safety risks and lead to costly repairs if left untreated.
Q: How long does the concrete leveling process take?
A: Most commercial concrete leveling projects are completed in just a few hours, depending on the size and condition of the area.
Q: How soon can we use the repaired concrete?
A: Your concrete is ready to use immediately after lifting, allowing business operations to continue with minimal disruption!
Q: Will the polyurethane foam break down over time?
A: No. Our polyurethane foam is waterproof, durable, and designed to last for decades. Unlike mudjacking, it won’t shrink, wash away, or deteriorate over time.
Q: How big are the drill holes for the lifting process?
A: We drill small, dime-sized holes for precise foam injection. These holes are sealed and color-matched after the lifting process for a clean finish. Mudjacking, on the other hand, requires larger holes that can be more difficult to patch up.
Q: Can commercial concrete lifting help prevent future settling?
A: Yes! Our process includes soil stabilization, which strengthens weak ground conditions to prevent future shifting and settling.
Q: How much does commercial concrete lifting cost?
A: Every project is unique, but concrete lifting typically costs 50-75% less than full slab replacement. Contact us for a free estimate.
Q: Is polyurethane foam safe for commercial environments?
A: Yes! The polyurethane foam we use is eco-friendly, non-toxic, and EPA-tested. It’s safe for use in warehouses, factories, and food service areas.
Q: Can you repair large industrial concrete slabs?
A: Yes! We provide concrete lifting for warehouse floors, parking lots, airport hangars, loading docks, and more. No job is too big.
Q: Does lifting concrete meet ADA compliance standards?
A: Yes! Uneven sidewalks and walkways can violate ADA accessibility guidelines. Our concrete leveling service helps businesses maintain safe, compliant walkways.
