Concrete Leveling: PolyLevel® Foam Lifting for Sunken Slabs

Before you replace sunken concrete, find out whether it can be lifted instead. PolyLevel® restores sunken driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors and other concrete slabs without the cost, disruption or downtime of replacement.

What Does Concrete Leveling Involve?

Concrete leveling is the process of lifting a sunken concrete slab back toward its original position by filling in the open space below it. Most of the time, the concrete is still structurally sound on its own—the real issue is that shifting soil, erosion or poor drainage has created voids underneath. Here in OK, freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rainfall, shifting soils and changing moisture levels are among the most common causes of settled concrete. When soil beneath the slab shifts or washes out, the concrete is left unsupported and begins to sink.

Unlike traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel® polyurethane foam concrete leveling rebuilds support without adding significant weight beneath the slab. As it expands, the foam fills hidden voids, precisely lifts the concrete and helps stabilize it for long-lasting performance.

Why PolyLevel® Is Different

Not all concrete leveling methods deliver the same long-term results. PolyLevel® was designed specifically to lift and support load-bearing concrete slabs, from driveways and sidewalks to patios and garage floors. Its lightweight, closed-cell polyurethane foam won’t absorb water or wash out, and it’s installed through small 5/8-inch injection ports that leave a cleaner finish than traditional mudjacking.

For homeowners throughout Oklahoma City, long-term performance matters just as much as the lift itself. When PolyLevel® is paired with NexusPro® joint sealant, joints are sealed off from water intrusion to help reduce future soil washout—creating a complete concrete repair system that protects your investment long after the slab has been leveled.

The Concrete Leveling & Protection System We Use

  • For lifting and supporting sunken concrete slabs

    PolyLevel®

    PolyLevel® is our own proprietary polyurethane foam concrete leveling system, engineered to lift and stabilize settled concrete with precision. Injected under the slab, the expanding foam fills hidden voids, brings the slab back toward its proper position and sets quickly so most surfaces are ready for normal use the same day.

    • Lightweight formula adds virtually no weight to the supporting soil
    • Raises and stabilizes driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors and other concrete surfaces
    • Won’t wash out, shrink or degrade like traditional mudjacking materials
    • Installed through small 5/8-inch injection ports for a cleaner repair with minimal patching
    • No costly tear-out or unsightly patchwork that comes with concrete replacement
    • Quick-curing formula allows most concrete surfaces to be used the same day
    • Waterproof formula won’t absorb water or break down over time
    • Environmentally friendly, inert material won’t leach into the surrounding soil
    • When paired with NexusPro®, helps guard against soil erosion and future concrete settlement
    • Supported by an industry-leading transferable warranty

  • For sealing joints and protecting your concrete repair

    NexusPro®

    Once your slab has been lifted with PolyLevel®, sealing open joints and cracks helps protect the repair against future water intrusion. NexusPro® is our professional-grade polyurethane sealant for joints that helps stop water from washing away the supporting soil beneath your concrete, reducing the chance of future settlement.

    • Seals up expansion joints and cracks after concrete leveling
    • Helps prevent water from washing away the soil supporting your concrete
    • Helps reduce soil erosion and safeguard the PolyLevel® repair
    • Flexible polyurethane flexes with seasonal expansion and contraction
    • UV resistant to help prevent cracking and breakdown
    • Resists both water and deicing salts
    • Covered by an industry-leading transferable warranty
How It Works

The PolyLevel® Leveling Process

Step 1

Free Inspection

Your Design Specialist evaluates the entire concrete surface, marks low areas, measures elevation changes and determines whether PolyLevel® is the right solution. You’ll receive a written repair recommendation and estimate before work starts.

Step 2

Prepare the Concrete

Our crew marks strategic injection points and drills small 5/8-inch holes through the concrete—about the size of a penny. We also protect nearby landscaping, walkways and surrounding surfaces before lifting begins.

Step 3

Lift the Concrete

PolyLevel® polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete, where it expands to fill the hidden voids beneath the slab before gently lifting the concrete back toward its original position.

Step 4

Fine-Tune the Elevation

As the work progresses, our crew watches the slab’s elevation with specialized leveling equipment. Additional foam is injected where needed to achieve a smooth, even surface with precise results.

Step 5

Seal & Finish

Once leveling is complete, the injection holes get patched, and expansion joints can be sealed with NexusPro® to help keep water from carrying away the supporting soil. Most concrete is ready for foot traffic in about 15 minutes and vehicle traffic within an hour.

When Does Concrete Leveling Make Sense?

Most uneven concrete doesn’t need to be replaced. If the slab is structurally sound and settling soil or erosion beneath it is the cause, PolyLevel® can restore the concrete at a fraction of the cost and mess of replacement.

If your concrete has significant structural damage—such as severe cracking, widespread spalling or a failing base—replacement may make more sense in the long term. During the free inspection, your Vesta Foundation Solutions Design Specialist will let you know whether concrete leveling or replacement is the best option for your property in Oklahoma City.

This is for logan and rolo who showed up at the appointed time and did a great job. they had a breakdown of equipment and had to come back the day after but were prompt to finish the job. During the repair, a car became stuck in a neighbors driveway and they were the first to help the person- to help someone else in need. I was really impressed with that. I give a 5 star review and rating. I plan to do additional work because they would be doing it. I enjoyed their friendliness and workmanship.

Brent M. | Coweta, OK

Everything went as expected, maybe a little better! Very nice crew, enjoyed the installation all around!

Bob H. | Tulsa, OK

Gino H. from Shawnee, OK purchased a charming old home built in 1939 with a full basement. Expanding soils that are so prevalent in many areas of OK exert an enormous pressure on foundations. As a result, most homes with full basements will eventually develop some sort of structural issue over time. When Gino learned about the problems, he decided to call Vesta Foundation Solutions for help. In this video, he speaks about his experience with the company. He is so happy with the service that he is hiring the company again, to repair another one of his properties. “I would absolutely recommend Vesta Foundation Solutions to any friends or family,” says Gino.

Gino H. | Shawnee, OK

“We knew something wasn’t right when the doors stopped closing properly and cracks started showing up. The Vesta team walked us through everything with total transparency. The crew was professional, fast, and left our place cleaner than they found it. Now our home feels solid again, and we finally have peace of mind.”

David R. | Luther, OK

“I’ll give the guys (Cory and Jose) a great 5+ rating. Great, efficient installation. They were very pleasant and professional.”

Nancy S. | Guthrie, OK

“We had no idea how bad things had gotten under our house until the Vesta team showed us the damage. They were honest, thorough, and explained everything clearly. The crew worked efficiently, replaced the damaged wood, and gave our floors the support they needed. It’s such a relief to walk through the house and not feel everything shifting. We’re incredibly thankful for the work they did.”

Sally B. | Nicoma Park, OK

Bryan and Cornileus were amazing. Our project was huge and required a lot of heavy lifting. Every day, they came to work with smiles on their faces and were hardworking the entire time. Bryan was great at communicating the process and what to expect. He would call me every morning to let me know where he was and at what time to expect him. Very reliable. They both are great around kids and were a joy to have in our home! Thanks guys!!

Shelby D. | Crescent, OK

I had a sinking concrete apron around my pool. I was considering replacing the concrete, which is very expensive, or “mudjacking” the concrete back in position. For about the same price as mudjacking, I hired Vesta Foundation Solutions to inject a polymer in the ground and bring the concrete back in position. I was very pleased with the results, and I feel I saved a considerable amount of money from other solutions available to me. William Blake, the hands-on owner, did an excellent presentation of his product. The work was completed in a timely manner by Adam and Daniel, who took extra time to explain the process as they were doing the work. The work site was cleaned up when the fellows were finished, and Mr. Blake reviewed the finished work to ensure I was satisfied. I am very satisfied with this type of concrete lifting process, and I can certainly recommend the workforce at Vesta Foundation Solutions for their professionalism, thoroughness, and friendliness in getting the work done.

David O. | Edmond, OK

Ricardo and his team did an excellent job installing my 10 piers. He was very informative, polite, and took good care of my yard and my house. Definitely would use them again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes concrete sink? 2026-10-05T15:06:35-05:00

Concrete typically sinks because the soil beneath it changes—not because the concrete itself wears out. Across OK, heavy rainfall, poor drainage, soil erosion, freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal moisture changes can create empty spaces beneath concrete slabs. PolyLevel® fills those voids and restores support without replacing the concrete. 

Can concrete be leveled instead of replaced? 2026-10-05T15:06:08-05:00

In many cases, yes. If the concrete is structurally sound and settling soil is the cause rather than extensive damage, PolyLevel® can lift and stabilize the slab without demolition. During the free inspection, your Vesta Foundation Solutions Design Specialist will determine whether concrete leveling or replacement is the best long-term solution. 

Is concrete leveling permanent? 2026-10-05T15:04:57-05:00

Concrete leveling is built to provide a long-lasting repair. PolyLevel® is a waterproof, inert polyurethane foam that resists washing away, shrinking and breaking down over time. It’s engineered to permanently fill voids beneath concrete slabs and comes backed by an industry-leading transferable warranty. 

Will PolyLevel® fix cracked concrete? 2026-10-05T15:01:26-05:00

It depends on what caused the crack. If uneven settlement is what cracked the slab, PolyLevel® can lift and stabilize the concrete before the crack is sealed with NexusPro®. Hairline or cosmetic cracks that have nothing to do with settlement may only need sealing. During your free inspection, we’ll point you to the right repair for your concrete. 

How does PolyLevel® compare to mudjacking? 2026-10-05T15:00:39-05:00

For most properties in OK, yes. PolyLevel® uses a lightweight polyurethane foam that won’t add unnecessary weight to the supporting soil or absorb water like traditional mudjacking materials. It’s installed through small 5/8-inch holes, allows for precise lifting and is designed to deliver longer-lasting performance in areas with shifting soils and seasonal weather. 

How long does concrete leveling take? 2026-10-05T14:49:20-05:00

Most residential concrete leveling projects take only a few hours, with bigger repairs sometimes taking up to a day. Once the final PolyLevel® injection is complete, the concrete is typically ready for foot traffic in about 15 minutes and vehicle traffic within an hour—far ahead of the days required for new concrete to cure. 

What does concrete leveling cost? 2026-10-05T14:48:20-05:00

What concrete leveling costs depends on the size of the slab, how far it has settled, accessibility and whether additional repairs like NexusPro® joint sealing are recommended. In many cases, PolyLevel® costs 30–50% less than replacing the concrete while delivering long-lasting results backed by a transferable warranty. Schedule a free inspection for a written estimate.
