Concrete Leveling Near Monroe, Shreveport, Ruston
If you have sinking concrete around your home, Level Tech can lift and restore your concrete to help eliminate trip hazards and pooling water problems. We level concrete driveways, walkways, patios, pool decks, and slabs using a proven polyurethane foam injection solution called PolyLevel®.
What Causes Uneven Concrete
As soil underneath a concrete slab shrinks, settles or washes away, this leaves empty space, or voids, beneath the slab. With the soil no longer supporting the slab, the concrete will sink, creating an uneven surface.
Uneven slabs are nuisances for both home safety and curb appeal. Since slabs are also a tripping hazard, they can also become a liability issue. Fortunately Level Tech has an easy solution.
Quickly and Effectively Lift Sunken Concrete with PolyLevel®
PolyLevel uses a high-density polyurethane foam to fill voids and stabilize and lift sinking concrete slabs. The expanding properties of the two-part urethane formula allows for accurate leveling of the slab. The result is a waterproof repair that’s cleaner, faster and much more permanent than mudjacking and other common concrete repair methods.
How PolyLevel® Works
Small 5/8” holes are strategically drilled in the slab.
Injection ports are installed.
Polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slab.
Holes and control joints are sealed.

PolyLevel® Applications
Traditional Concrete Leveling Solutions vs PolyLevel®
Before PolyLevel, there were two basic options for lifting and leveling concrete: mudjacking and slab replacement. Both approaches have limitations and disadvantages. PolyLevel offers many advantages over traditional concrete leveling methods.
PolyLevel® vs. Mudjacking
| PolyLevel Foam Injection | Mudjacking or Slabjacking | |
|---|---|---|
| Cure Time | 15 minutes | 24 hours or more |
| Material Weight | 2 lbs per cubic foot | 100 lbs per cubic foot |
| Hole Size | 5/8″ (size of a penny) | 1″ (size of a quarter) |
| Waterproof | Yes | No |
PolyLevel® vs. Concrete Replacement
Replacing a concrete slab is both expensive and disruptive. Concrete slabs can take days — or even weeks — to cure. Pouring new concrete over bad soil often delays future problems and leaves unsightly patchwork. PolyLevel material is lightweight, so it won’t add weight to weak soil. Best of all, PolyLevel allows for use of concrete within hours, not weeks.
If your concrete is structurally-sound, why replace it? Replacing the concrete won’t fix the soil problem that’s causing the settlement. Concrete leveling is the answer.
