Is your driveway, patio, or walkway starting to look a little… off? Uneven slabs, trip hazards, or sunken concrete are more than just an eyesore—they’re a safety issue and could be the reason for ruining someone’s day with a big trip up.
You might be thinking about replacing your concrete or getting new concrete. However, there’s a smarter, faster, and longer-lasting solution than tearing it all out or going with outdated methods.
Let’s talk about concrete lifting, concrete levelling, and how True Level Concrete can bring your cracked and sunken concrete back to life—better than ever.
Lifting and filling your concrete back to level is a quick and cost effective way to restore your home’s concrete. Whether it’s your driveway, steps, or patio giving you issues, we have a great solution.
What Causes Sunken Concrete?
Sunken or cracked concrete is most often caused by soil issues under the slab. Over time, the soil can settle or wash away—leaving gaps and voids that cause the concrete above to sink or crack. This can happen from:
- Poor compaction during initial construction
- Water erosion or drainage problems
- Freeze-thaw cycles
- Natural soil settlement
Left ignored, these problems will only get worse—and more expensive to fix.
The Best Solution: Concrete Lifting and Levelling Repair
At True Level Concrete, we use PolyLevel, which is a polyurethane foam to lift, level, and stabilize sunken concrete slabs. This isn’t just another quick fix—it’s a high-tech, long-term solution designed to last.
Fast – Most jobs are done in just a few hours, and you can walk or drive on it the same day.
Non-invasive – Small drill holes, no heavy equipment, and minimal disruption to your yard.
Lightweight but strong – PolyLevel won’t add extra weight to unstable soils like heavy mudjacking grout.
Why Not Mudjacking?
Mudjacking may seem like a cheaper fix, but it comes with some major drawbacks:
- It uses a heavy slurry of cement and soil that can add pressure to already unstable ground.
- Larger holes are required, making it more invasive and noticeable.
- It’s not waterproof, which means the problem can return when water washes the slurry away.
- Shorter lifespan—meaning you could be repeating the process (and the cost) in a few years.
When you compare the two side by side, PolyLevel wins every time.
Why Not Full Concrete Replacement?
Sometimes, people wait too long and end up needing to fully replace their concrete. But here’s why waiting is the worst option:
- More expensive – Replacing concrete costs significantly more than lifting and levelling it.
- Time-consuming – You’re looking at days or even weeks of work, including demolition, framing, pouring, curing, and clean-up.
- Not guaranteed to last – If the underlying soil issue isn’t fixed, your brand-new concrete may sink again.
Our concrete lifting method addresses the root cause—unstable soil—and stabilizes it permanently.\
Why Acting Now Saves You Money (and Headaches)
If you’ve noticed uneven slabs, cracks, or pooling water on your concrete, the time to act is now. Waiting only lets the problem get worse—and more costly. Small gaps can turn into big cracks. Minor tripping hazards can become liabilities. And simple repairs can become full replacements.
