Front Walkway Lifting at the Stoop in Newnan, GA
Case Study: Front Walkway & Stoop Concrete Lifting in Newnan
A settled walkway near the front stoop can make entering and leaving your home unsafe. Even a small height difference between the walkway and the step can create a serious trip hazard for family members and guests.
That was the issue this homeowner in Newnan, GA was facing. The front walkway had settled over time, leaving the concrete uneven where it met the front stoop.
The Problem
Years of soil movement beneath the concrete caused the walkway to sink away from the front step. The uneven surface not only affected the home’s appearance but also made everyday use less safe.
The homeowner was concerned about:
- A noticeable trip hazard at the front stoop
- Uneven concrete leading to the entrance
- Water collecting around the settled slab
- Continued movement beneath the walkway
- The high cost of replacing decorative concrete
The homeowner wanted a permanent solution that didn’t involve tearing out the existing walkway.
The Solution: Polyurethane Concrete Lifting
After evaluating the walkway, Poly Lift USA recommended lifting and stabilizing the concrete using high-density polyurethane foam.
Instead of replacing the slab, we injected structural foam beneath the walkway to fill hidden voids and carefully raise the concrete back to the proper height.
This repair allowed the homeowner to:
- Restore a smooth transition to the front stoop
- Eliminate the trip hazard
- Stabilize the soil beneath the walkway
- Avoid costly demolition and replacement
- Return the walkway to service the same day
The Process
After inspecting the settled walkway, our crew completed the repair using three simple steps.

1. Precision Drilling
Small access holes were drilled into the affected concrete slabs.
2. Polyurethane Foam Injection
High-density polyurethane foam was injected beneath the walkway. As the foam expanded, it filled underground voids and gently lifted the concrete until it matched the front stoop.
3. Patch & Clean Up
The access holes were patched, and the work area was cleaned, leaving minimal visible repair points.
The result was a level, stable walkway with a safe transition to the home’s entrance.
The Results
The entire repair was completed in just a few hours.
The front walkway is now:
- Level with the front stoop
- Free of dangerous trip hazards
- Fully supported underneath
- Better protected against future settlement
- Ready for immediate use
The homeowner was pleased to restore both the safety and appearance of the home’s entrance without replacing the concrete.
