Concrete Lifting Services in Lake in the Hills

Sunken concrete is almost always a symptom of what’s happening in the soil below it, whether that’s water washing out fill, soil that settles unevenly, or ground that simply wasn’t compacted well to begin with. Given that Lake in the Hills is an established McHenry County suburb with residential subdivisions built mostly from the 1970s onward, the soil conditions our crews run into here can vary quite a bit from property to property, which is why we look before we lift.

Our lifting method relies on polyurethane foam, injected through a pattern of small holes drilled directly into the concrete. As the foam expands beneath the slab, it fills voids and raises the concrete back to level, then hardens to provide stable, long-term support underneath. Because the foam is lightweight and the holes are small, there’s minimal impact to the surrounding landscaping or hardscape. This method applies to driveways, sidewalks, patios, pool decks, and interior slabs alike.
