Concrete Lifting Services in Long Grove

Concrete slabs are heavy and rigid, but the ground beneath them is neither. Soil moves with moisture, settles under a slab’s own weight, and can wash away wherever drainage sends water underneath instead of around it. Since Long Grove is a Lake County village known for its historic covered bridge and small, walkable downtown, our crews regularly see this play out a little differently from one property to the next, so we evaluate each job individually rather than assuming every slab is the same.

To lift a settled slab, we drill small holes and inject polyurethane foam beneath the concrete. As the foam expands, it fills the voids left by the eroded or compacted soil and lifts the slab back to its intended grade, curing quickly enough that there’s little downtime before the area sees use again. Because the foam is lightweight and sets quickly, the surface can typically handle foot and vehicle traffic again shortly after the job is finished. It’s a practical option for driveways, sidewalks, patios, and other flatwork around the property.
