Concrete Leveling
We lift and level sunken concrete slabs quickly and affordably, eliminating trip hazards and restoring the value of your property.
Why Concrete Leveling Works
When concrete slabs sink or settle, they create uneven surfaces that look bad and pose safety risks. Cracks widen, water pools in the wrong places, and trip hazards appear. Many homeowners assume they need to tear out the old concrete and start over, but there is often a better solution.
Concrete leveling, also called slab jacking or mudjacking, raises sunken concrete back to its original height without removing and replacing it. This process costs a fraction of what you would pay for full replacement and takes just hours instead of days. The result is a smooth, level surface that looks great and eliminates safety concerns.
At Braselton Concrete Master, we use proven concrete leveling techniques to restore driveways, sidewalks, patios, and other flatwork throughout Braselton, GA. Our team has the experience and equipment to handle both minor settling and serious sinking problems. If your concrete can be saved, we will level it properly and help you avoid the hassle and expense of replacement.
Common Areas We Level
Concrete can sink for many reasons, including soil erosion, poor compaction, tree roots, and water damage. We level all types of concrete surfaces to restore safety and appearance. Here are the most common areas we work on:
- •Driveways: Sunken sections that create bumps or collect water near your garage
- •Sidewalks and Walkways: Uneven slabs that create trip hazards for family and visitors
- •Patios: Tilted or settled surfaces that drain toward your home instead of away from it
- •Pool Decks: Sunken concrete around swimming pools that creates uneven surfaces and drainage problems
- •Garage Floors: Slabs that have settled and no longer sit flush with the foundation
If the concrete itself is still in good shape without major cracks or structural damage, leveling is usually the smart choice. We will inspect your concrete and let you know if leveling will solve the problem or if you need replacement instead.
How Concrete Leveling Works
The concrete leveling process is straightforward and minimally invasive. We start by drilling small holes through the sunken slab. These holes are typically about the size of a penny and are placed strategically to provide even support across the entire surface.
Next, we pump a specialized material under the slab through the holes. This material fills voids in the soil and lifts the concrete back to its proper height. As we pump, we monitor the slab carefully to ensure it rises evenly and reaches the correct level. The process is precise and controlled.
Once the slab is level, we fill the injection holes with concrete patch and smooth the surface. The repair blends in with the surrounding concrete and becomes almost invisible. The entire process typically takes just a few hours, and you can use the surface again within 24 hours.
Concrete leveling is much faster and cleaner than replacement. There is no heavy demolition, no hauling away broken concrete, and no waiting weeks for new concrete to cure. You get your level surface back quickly with minimal disruption. If you are also looking to improve other areas, we offer services like driveway installation and complete concrete solutions for your property.
