Do you provide SlabJacking in Central Indiana & Central Illinois?

Yes. HowellSlabJacking provides Traditional SlabJacking services in Central Indiana & Central Illinois and surrounding areas. We help property owners restore settled driveways, sidewalks, patios, porches, steps, garage floors, concrete slabs, and commercial concrete without tearing everything out and replacing it.

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 in Central Indiana & Central Illinois?

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

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 both Indiana and Illinois?

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

Uneven Concrete Slab Causing Problems?

If your concrete slab has started sinking, cracking, separating, or creating uneven surfaces, the problem usually does not improve on its own. Whether it is a detached building slab, shed slab, barn slab, workshop floor, or another concrete surface around your property, settlement often becomes worse over time if left alone.

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

Many people use the term “concrete leveling,” but most of the time concrete does not need to be perfectly level. The goal is usually restoring the slab back toward its original grade while maintaining proper support and helping prevent future problems.

Why Concrete Slabs Sink

Concrete slabs can settle for many reasons. Most of the time the slab itself is not the problem. The issue is usually what is happening underneath the concrete.

Common causes include:

Soil settling beneath the slab
Poor compaction during construction
Water erosion beneath the concrete
Rodent activity creating voids
Freeze and thaw cycles
New construction settlement
Drainage issues around the property

When support beneath the slab changes, the concrete eventually starts to move and settle.

If ignored, the problem often becomes worse over time.

Signs Your Concrete Slab May Need SlabJacking

You may notice:

Uneven concrete surfaces
Cracks becoming larger
One side of the slab sitting lower
Gaps beneath the slab
Water collecting around the concrete
Trip hazards
Doors not closing properly in detached structures
Separation between concrete sections

Smaller problems are usually easier and less expensive to address before settlement becomes more severe.

If your concrete slab is settling, there is a good chance other concrete around your property may also be moving. We also help property owners lift garage floors, driveways, walkways & sidewalks, steps, patios, and pool decks. Whether you are dealing with trip hazards, settlement, or uneven surfaces, our Traditional SlabJacking process helps restore settled concrete without replacement.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had Howell Concrete lifters lift a few sections of our driveway and sidewalk that had settled over time. The driveway had settled so much that it was approximately 4" lower than the garage floor and a major tripping hazard. I had another local company do an estimate prior to getting one from Howell and the price was nearly three times higher than Howell. They scheduled the job quickly and did an excellent job! They were friendly, efficient, and cleaned up the site very well. I recently contacted them again after approximately three - four years because the driveway had settled slightly again where it met the garage floor and they came out and re-lifted the same area plus another part of the driveway never lifted before and all for no charge! I understand that there is normally a charge after a certain amount of time but they waved the fee. You don't find this kind of customer service these days! Thank you David & Crew!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The folks at Howell Concrete Lifters exceeded my hopes and expectations.  I was faced with the serious possibility of having to jack hammer concrete stairs and driveway.  Settling had made my front stoop over three inches different at the top step from the height of our other stairs and going into our garage was a very bumpy rider.  It looked terrible.  After looking at reviews I gave them a call, received a visit, an honest discussion of what to expect and an estimate.  Within 10 days of accepting they were on site, on time, and very efficient.  My front stoop look and does its job so much better and my driveway is flat.  Great pricing with huge savings over concrete replacement.  I recommend them really enjoyed working with them.  They saved me thousands of dollars.

Our Fix: Traditional Concrete Slab 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 much material should be pumped beneath the slab comes from decades of real-world experience.

Step 1: Inspect & Drill

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

Step 2: Pump Material Beneath The Slab

Material is pumped beneath the slab under pressure to fill voids and gradually restore support.

Step 3: Lift, Support & Finish

The slab is carefully lifted toward its proper position while supporting surrounding areas and matching adjacent concrete sections as closely as possible.

Most residential jobs can often be completed in less than a day.

Concrete Slab SlabJacking FAQs

Yes. Concrete naturally cracks over time. As the old saying goes, concrete is guaranteed to do two things: get hard and crack. In many situations, cracked slabs can still be lifted successfully. The goal is usually restoring the slab toward its original position and reducing separation between cracks and joints. Depending on the situation, cracks can sometimes also be addressed afterward.

Every slab is different, so pricing depends on several factors including location, access, voids beneath the slab, and the amount of settlement involved. Most residential SlabJacking jobs typically run between $600–$1,900, although larger projects can cost more depending on size and conditions.

Not necessarily. We have lifted tens of thousands of slabs over the past 35+ years that someone else originally poured. Traditional SlabJacking often allows property owners to avoid demolition, keep existing concrete, and save money. You can also learn more about Traditional SlabJacking vs Poly Foam Lifting.

Nothing is permanent. If the support under the slab continues sinking because of erosion or ongoing settlement, movement can happen again. However, when drainage and erosion issues are controlled, many slabs remain stable for many years.

Yes. Interior slabs and floors can often be lifted depending on the situation. Interior surfaces sometimes require more precise lifting because levelness can be important inside structures. You can also learn more about our Concrete Floors services.

Scheduling depends on current workload, weather, job size, and location. Sometimes projects can be completed fairly quickly while other times scheduling may take longer. We coordinate multiple projects throughout Central Indiana and Central Illinois and work everyone in as quickly as possible.

Voids can develop for several reasons including water erosion, poor soil compaction, animal activity, or natural settlement over time. When support beneath the slab disappears, the concrete no longer has consistent support and can begin sinking.
