Sidewalk & walkway leveling

Sidewalk & walkway leveling in Eastlake & Lake County

Uneven sidewalk joints and sunken walkway slabs raised back to flush with polyurethane foam. Homes, apartment buildings and commercial properties. The trip hazard is gone the same day, without tearing out a single slab.

The problem

A raised sidewalk joint is a trip and fall claim waiting

A sidewalk slab that sits even half an inch above its neighbor catches toes, canes, and snow shovels. On a public walk or a commercial property, that edge is premises liability with your name on it.

Grinding shaves the edge but leaves the slab low, so water keeps collecting and the settling continues. Replacement costs a full pour for a problem that sits under the slab, not in it.

Foam lifting fixes the cause. We inject polyurethane under the low slab and raise it flush with the next one. Slabjacking a walkway usually takes under an hour per section.

Signs to watch for

When a sidewalk or walkway needs lifting

Raised joints

One slab sits higher than the next. The classic stubbed toe edge.

Sunken sections

A slab dropped and now holds water or ice right where you walk.

Slabs pitched sideways

The walk tilts and sends water into the lawn or against the house.

Cracked slabs

Cracks usually mean a void underneath. Fill the void and the movement stops.

Ice patches every winter

Low spots collect melt water and freeze into the same patch of ice all season.

Gaps at the steps

The walk pulled away from your front steps and the gap keeps growing.

Commercial properties

Apartments, HOAs & property managers

If tenants, customers or the public walk on your concrete, an uneven joint is not a maintenance item. It is a claim. One trip and fall settlement costs more than leveling every walk on the property.

Apartment & condo buildings

Entry walks, courtyard paths and building sidewalks leveled without closing them for days like a repour would.

HOAs & property managers

One quote for every raised joint on the property. Fix the whole list in a visit or two instead of slab-by-slab complaints.

Retail, offices & churches

Walkways and entrances your customers use every day, lifted flush and back in service the same day.

Sidewalk & walkway questions

Frequently asked

Is lifting cheaper than replacing the slab?
Yes. Lifting typically runs 50 to 70 percent less than tear out and replacement, and the walk is back in use the same day.
Why not just grind the raised edge down?
Grinding hides the symptom. The slab is still low, water still collects, and the settling continues. Lifting fixes the slab height and fills the void that caused it.
Do you level sidewalks for apartment buildings and commercial properties?
Yes. Apartment buildings, HOAs, retail plazas, offices and churches. Uneven walks on a commercial property are a trip and fall liability, and lifting them costs a fraction of a repour with no days of closed walkways.
Can you lift city sidewalk squares?
Usually yes. Check what your city requires first. Some cities have programs for tree lawn sidewalks, and we can lift squares on your own property any time.
Will the slabs sink again?
The foam is waterproof and does not wash out or compress, so the lift holds. We also seal the joints so water stops getting under the slab.
