Traditional SlabJacking is a proven method used to Lift Settled Concrete by pumping material beneath the slab to fill voids and restore support. The goal is usually restoring concrete back toward its original grade without tearing it out and replacing it.

Is SlabJacking the same as concrete leveling?

Not always. Most concrete is intentionally poured with pitch so water drains properly away from homes and structures. The goal is generally restoring concrete toward its original position rather than making everything perfectly level.

How much does SlabJacking cost?

Every project is different, but many residential SlabJacking projects typically range from approximately $600–$1,900 depending on access, size, settlement, and location.

How long does SlabJacking last?

Nothing is completely permanent. However, HowellSlabJacking has lifted tens of thousands of slabs over more than 35 years that have remained stable for many years when erosion and outside conditions are controlled.

Do you serve Indiana and Illinois?

Yes. HowellSlabJacking serves property owners throughout Central Indiana and Central Illinois including Indianapolis, Greenwood, Bloomington, Decatur, Champaign, Normal, and surrounding areas.

Uneven Commercial Concrete Creating Safety Problems?

Uneven commercial concrete can create more than an appearance problem. Settled concrete around warehouses, factories, loading areas, entrances, sidewalks, and commercial floors can become a safety concern, create liability issues, and make daily operations more difficult.

At HowellSlabJacking, we have been helping property owners Lift Settled Concrete since 1989. We have Specialized in SlabJacking for over 35 years, helping businesses across Indianapolis and Central Indiana restore settled concrete without the cost and disruption of complete replacement.

Many newer companies may call it “concrete leveling,” but in many situations commercial concrete must be restored carefully while maintaining proper drainage and matching adjacent sections. Experience matters.

Why Commercial Concrete Sinks

Commercial concrete is constantly exposed to heavy use and changing conditions beneath the slab. Over time, support beneath the concrete can shift or wash away.

Common causes include:

Soil settlement beneath the slab
Heavy vehicle traffic
Poor compaction during construction
Water erosion
Drainage problems
Freeze and thaw cycles
Voids beneath concrete
Long-term ground movement

When support underneath the slab changes, the concrete can begin settling and creating uneven areas.

If ignored, the problem often becomes worse over time.

Signs You May Need Commercial SlabJacking

You may notice:

Uneven loading areas
Trip hazards near entrances
Water pooling around buildings
Sinking sidewalks
Uneven warehouse floors
Gaps beneath concrete
Cracks widening over time
Concrete pulling away from structures

Smaller problems are often easier and less expensive to address before they become larger repairs.

If commercial concrete around your property is settling, there is often a good chance nearby surfaces are experiencing similar issues. We also help property owners restore driveways, garage floors, walkways & sidewalks, steps, patios, and concrete slabs. Whether the issue involves safety concerns, water pooling, or settled concrete sections, our Traditional SlabJacking process helps restore concrete without unnecessary replacement.

Our Fix: Traditional Commercial SlabJacking

Traditional SlabJacking has been a tried and proven method for lifting settled concrete for decades.

At HowellSlabJacking, experience matters. The material itself is only one part of the process. Knowing where to place the holes and how material should spread beneath large commercial slabs comes from decades in the field.

Step 1: Inspect & Drill

We inspect the concrete and identify areas where support has been lost beneath the slab. Small access holes are drilled in strategic locations.

Step 2: Pump Material Beneath The Slab

Material is pumped beneath the concrete under pressure to fill voids and carefully lift settled sections.

Step 3: Lift, Support & Finish

The slab is restored toward its original position while maintaining support and matching surrounding areas as closely as possible.

Most projects can often be completed with minimal interruption to daily operations.

Commercial SlabJacking FAQs

We help restore many types of commercial concrete including warehouse floors, sidewalks, loading areas, entrances, industrial floors, parking areas, and other settled concrete surfaces. Every job is different, so we evaluate each situation individually before recommending a solution.

Many times yes. One advantage of Traditional SlabJacking is that projects can often be completed with minimal interruption to operations. Every project varies depending on access, safety concerns, and the amount of work involved.

Not always. Replacement often involves demolition, disposal costs, downtime, and major disruption. Traditional SlabJacking frequently allows businesses to restore existing concrete while avoiding many of those issues. You can also learn more about our SlabJacking Process and how it works.

No two projects are exactly the same. Cost depends on the amount of settlement, access to the area, slab size, voids beneath the concrete, and scheduling. We evaluate each project individually before providing recommendations.

Nothing is permanent. Ground movement and erosion can continue affecting concrete over time. However, our material itself does not sink. When erosion and drainage problems are controlled, many lifted slabs remain stable for many years.

Both methods can work well and each has advantages depending on the situation. One of the biggest factors is not simply the material itself but the experience of the contractor performing the work. You can learn more on our SlabJacking vs Poly Foam Lifting page.

Scheduling depends on the size of the project, location, weather, and current workload. Some projects can be completed quickly while others require more planning and coordination.
