Concrete Lifting Services in Crystal Lake

It’s rarely the concrete that’s the problem. What’s usually changed is the soil underneath it, compacting, eroding, or shifting until the slab above no longer has even support. Since Crystal Lake is a McHenry County town built around its namesake lake, with an established downtown and residential neighborhoods, 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.
