Concrete sinks in the upstate because the rain washes the soil out from under it. We lift your driveway, patio, or pool deck back to level with foam injection — usually the same day.

Around Greenville, the upstate's heavy rain washes the soil out from under your concrete and the red clay swells and shrinks until the slab loses its support and drops. We lift it back. Below are the eight services we run across Greenville. Every one is concrete lifting or concrete repair, and the same crew runs the whole job. We lift the concrete you already have rather than tearing it out, which is why a repair costs a fraction of a new pour.
The fix for a sunken slab without tearing it out and repouring. We drill a few dime-sized holes, pump expanding foam underneath until the slab reads level, and patch the holes. Most jobs wrap in an afternoon and you're back on the concrete the same day. Sinking concrete almost always comes from a void underneath, not from bad concrete, so filling that void is the repair. Concrete lifting puts the slab back where it started without replacing a single panel. Concrete leveling and concrete lifting describe the same work. The concrete is never removed, only raised.

A driveway apron that's dropped at the street, or a panel settled into a dip, is the job we run most around Greenville. We lift the low section, fill the void underneath, and you can pull in on it the same day. Older homes around Botany Woods and Cleveland Forest have driveways that have been settling for decades. Driveway leveling is the job we run most in Greenville, and the concrete goes back to grade in a single visit.

When one slab heaves up past the next, you've got a toe-catcher and a liability. We raise the low slab to meet the high one, level the run, and patch the injection holes — no jackhammer, no new pour. Sidewalk slabs are the cheapest concrete lifting work we do, and the repair removes the trip hazard the same afternoon. Most walkway concrete needs one visit, and the work takes under an hour.

A patio is supposed to shed water away from the house. Once it settles back toward the foundation, rain pools against the wall and finds its way in. We lift the sunken edge, put the slope back where it belongs, and the water drains the right way again. Water running toward the foundation is what turns a small concrete problem into a structural one. Correcting the slope is part of the concrete repair, not an add-on. Foundation drainage and concrete leveling get solved in the same trip, which keeps the foundation dry.

Splash-out and irrigation wash the soil from under a pool deck faster than anywhere else in the yard. We lift pool decks with foam — light enough to raise the slab without leaning on the pool shell — and a lot of our deck work runs neighborhoods like Chanticleer and Gower Estates. Pool deck slabs move for the same reason every other slab does, and the concrete is lifted with the same equipment.

A garage slab dipped toward the back pulls water and oil away from the door and toward the wall. We raise the low spots, fill the void under the floor, and you can park on it that day. Garage slabs are thicker concrete, so the lifting is slower, but the repair holds just as long.

Any settled slab — a porch, a stoop, a shed floor, an AC pad — comes back the same way: foam pumped underneath until it's level and fully supported. If a slab on your property has dropped, it's usually liftable. That covers interior slabs, exterior work, and any concrete attached to the house. If the slab is sound, lifting beats replacing it on cost every time.

Leveling fixes the height; crack repair seals the gaps. After a lift we fill cracks with a flexible sealant that moves with the slab and keeps water from getting back underneath and washing the soil out all over again. Crack sealing on its own is not a repair. If the concrete underneath is unsupported, the crack reopens within a season.

Tell us what's sunk and we come out and look, no charge. We measure the drop, check what's under the slab, and figure out where the soil went. The assessment covers every slab on the property, so you get one plan for all of the concrete rather than a price per piece.
You hear exactly what's happening under the slab, what the lift involves, and the price — before any work starts. If a slab's too far gone to lift, we'll tell you that too. Most concrete is worth saving. Replacement is the exception, not the default. We look at the concrete first and the budget second. A leveling project on a whole driveway still beats a new pour on cost, and the concrete stays put. Our services are built around lifting concrete rather than pouring it. Concrete leveling is the whole business, so the services list stays short.
Small holes, foam pumped underneath until the slab reads level and the void below it is full and supported again. The same concrete lifting method works on a walkway, a driveway, or an interior slab.
We patch the holes, clean up, and you're walking or driving on it the same day. No cure-time wait. That is the practical difference between concrete lifting and a full replacement, which takes days of cure time.
Most of our Greenville jobs are a few hours, start to finish. Somebody answers the phone seven days a week and we usually get out to look within a day. When a slab's a trip hazard or water's running the wrong way, you shouldn't have to wait a month. Concrete repair calls across Greenville are usually scheduled inside a couple of days. Greenville homeowners rarely wait more than a week, and sinking slabs across Greenville get the same turnaround.
The price is written down before we start, and that's the price — no "starts at" teaser, no surprise change order unless you add work. If we get under the slab and find something that changes the job, we stop and show you before we touch it. The written price covers the concrete work and the repair together, with no separate line added later.
Foam injection is light, cures in about fifteen minutes, and holds twenty-plus years — you're back on the slab the same day instead of waiting on a fresh pour. And if a slab isn't worth lifting, we'll tell you straight instead of selling you a job you don't need. Our services are limited to concrete lifting and concrete repair, so there is nothing else we are trying to sell you.
Real jobs we've done. Same slab, lifted back to grade.
The questions we get most often during free assessments around the city.
Less than replacing the slab, usually by a good bit. It comes down to the size, how far it's dropped, and how much foam the void takes. A single sidewalk panel or a settled step runs low; a full driveway or pool deck runs higher. You get the real number in writing after a free on-site look — never a guess over the phone. Pricing tracks how many slabs are involved and how far the concrete has dropped. Concrete leveling on a small walkway runs a few hundred dollars. Larger concrete projects are quoted slab by slab.
Mostly water. The upstate catches more rain than the Piedmont cities below it — right around fifty inches a year — and that runoff off the foothills works under driveways, patios, and pool decks and washes the soil out from under them. Once the dirt's gone the slab has nothing to sit on, so it drops. Loose fill that was never packed down tight settles the same way, and the region's red clay swelling and shrinking adds to it. That movement is why concrete across Greenville settles unevenly, and why a repair that skips the void will not hold.
We drill a series of dime-sized holes in the slab, then pump expanding polyurethane foam through them. It spreads under the concrete, fills the empty space the soil left behind, and lifts the slab in a slow, controlled way until it's back to level. It cures hard in minutes — we patch the holes and you're done. The concrete is walkable before the crew leaves. Foundation work takes a little longer to cure than a walkway.
The lift is permanent as long as the soil underneath stays put; the foam itself holds twenty-plus years and doesn't wash out or break down. What ends a lift early is water washing the soil out again — so where drainage is the real culprit, we'll point out what's sending water under the slab. Fixing the drainage protects the concrete repair for years afterward.
Usually not. Insurers treat settling from soil movement and washout as wear-and-tear, not sudden damage — and that's nearly always what's behind a sunken slab. A sudden covered event, like a plumbing line letting go under the slab, is the exception. Check your policy, but plan on out of pocket; it's still a fraction of replacement. A repair on one slab costs far less than replacing the concrete around it. The repair is priced per slab so you can see what each one costs. Concrete leveling keeps the existing concrete in place, which is why the repair costs a fraction of replacement.
If the slab's sound and just sitting too low, leveling is the easy call — a fraction of the cost of tear-out and a new pour, and you're back on it the same day. Replacement only makes sense when the concrete itself is crumbling or badly broken up. On the free look we'll tell you honestly which side of that line your slab is on. When concrete can be lifted we lift it; when it cannot, we say so. That judgement costs nothing and it is made on the concrete itself.
