Concrete Leveling Edmonton | Polyurethane Foam Lifting & Sunken Slab Repair
Got Sunken or Uneven Concrete?
You don't need to tear it out and start over. Our polyurethane foam lifting restores sunken slabs in hours, saving you thousands compared to full replacement. Get back to level ground without the mess, delay, or expense.
As Edmonton's concrete leveling specialists with over 11 years of experience, Poly Lift Solutions uses advanced polyurethane foam injection, also known as polyjacking, to lift and stabilize sunken concrete slabs in just a few hours. Edmonton's climate is uniquely tough on concrete: our 50+ annual freeze-thaw cycles, expansive clay soils, and heavy spring snowmelt create ideal conditions for settlement and slab shifting. Our foam lifting technology is engineered to stand up to these conditions, delivering results that outlast traditional mudjacking by years.
Whether your driveway is heaving, your patio has dropped, or your garage floor is sinking, our team restores level, stable concrete surfaces without the expense or disruption of full replacement, saving most Edmonton homeowners 50–70% compared to tearing it out.
Real Edmonton Results: Before & After
Why Does Concrete Sink in Edmonton?
Edmonton's unique climate and soil conditions make concrete settlement extremely common. The primary causes include:
Freeze-Thaw Cycles
Edmonton experiences 50+ freeze-thaw cycles annually. This constant expansion and contraction causes soil to shift and create voids beneath your concrete.
Water Erosion
Poor drainage, downspout runoff, and spring snowmelt wash away supporting soil, leaving your concrete with nothing underneath.
Clay Soil Shrinkage
Alberta's clay-heavy soils expand when wet and shrink when dry, pulling away from concrete and creating unstable support.
Poor Initial Compaction
If the ground wasn't properly compacted before concrete was poured, settlement is inevitable - sometimes appearing years later.
How Does Concrete Leveling Work? Our 5-Step Foam Lifting Process
Our concrete leveling process uses high-density polyurethane foam to permanently lift and stabilize your slabs. Here's what to expect:
Free Assessment
We inspect your concrete, identify the cause of settlement, and provide a transparent, no-obligation quote.
Strategic Drilling
We drill small, 5/8" diameter holes through your concrete - much smaller than the holes required for mudjacking.
Foam Injection
High-density polyurethane foam is injected beneath the slab. It expands to fill voids and lifts the concrete back to level.
Rapid Curing
The foam cures in approximately 15 minutes, hardening into a strong, permanent base that won't erode or wash away.
Clean Finish
Holes are patched, the site is cleaned, and you can walk or drive on your concrete the same day.
Polyjacking vs. Mudjacking: Which Is Better for Edmonton Concrete?
Traditional mudjacking has been around for decades, but modern polyurethane foam injection (polyjacking) offers significant advantages:
| Factor | Polyjacking (Foam) | Mudjacking (Slurry) |
|---|---|---|
| Material Weight | Lightweight foam (2-4 lbs/ft³) | Heavy slurry (100+ lbs/ft³) |
| Hole Size | 5/8" diameter | 1-2" diameter |
| Cure Time | 15 minutes | 24-48 hours |
| Water Resistance | Waterproof, won't erode | Can wash out over time |
| Longevity | Permanent solution | May need repeat repairs |
| Equipment | Clean, compact setup | Large trucks, messy process |

Concrete Leveling Questions: Answered by Edmonton's Experts
Most residential concrete leveling jobs in Edmonton range from $300 to $1,500 depending on the size of the area, number of slabs, and accessibility. By comparison, full concrete replacement typically runs $3,000 to $10,000+ for the same area once you factor in demolition, disposal, new pours, and curing time. Our foam lifting process typically saves homeowners 50–70%, and you can use the surface the same day. We provide free, no-obligation on-site estimates so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Most residential concrete leveling jobs are completed in 2-4 hours. You can walk on the repaired concrete immediately and drive on it within a few hours. Compare this to concrete replacement, which typically requires 7-10 days before full use.
No. The polyurethane foam we use is waterproof, non-toxic once cured, and won't decompose, erode, or wash away. It maintains its structural integrity indefinitely, making it a permanent solution for concrete settlement.
Polyurethane foam can be applied in temperatures as low as -20°C. However, the best results are achieved when temperatures are above freezing. Contact us to discuss your specific situation - we work year-round in Edmonton.
For most applications, yes. Polyjacking uses lightweight, waterproof foam that cures in minutes and won't add stress to already compromised soil. Mudjacking uses heavy slurry that can erode over time and requires larger holes. The foam injection method is cleaner, faster, and typically longer-lasting.
