Concrete slab lifting raises a sunken slab back to its original grade without tearing it out. Balch Springs Concrete Lifting handles this on driveways, walkways, and patios where the concrete itself is sound but the ground underneath has washed out or compacted unevenly.

Most homes here sit on clay soil that shifts with the seasons. That movement leaves a void under one edge of a slab, and the slab drops into it. Lifting fills the void and pushes the slab back up. No demolition, no new pour.

FAQs

Concrete Slab Lifting FAQs

Is it cheaper to lift a slab or replace it?

Lifting usually runs a fraction of full replacement cost since there's no demolition, no forms, and no new concrete cure time.

How long does a lifted slab last before it needs redoing?

A properly filled void holds for years. Clay soil movement can eventually cause new settling elsewhere on the same slab, which is a separate lift, not a redo of the same spot.

How soon can I walk or drive on it?

Foot traffic is usually fine within an hour. Vehicle weight needs about 24 hours depending on the material used.

Will this crack the slab further?

A controlled, gradual lift is designed to avoid new stress cracks. Existing cracks may need separate sealing.

Does homeowners insurance cover this?

Most policies treat soil settlement as normal wear, not a covered event. Check with your carrier, but plan to budget for it as maintenance.
