Walkway & Sidewalk Leveling
Restore Safe, Level Walkways Without the Mess of Replacement
Uneven or sunken walkways and sidewalks are more than just an eyesore. They can create trip hazards, collect water, and make it harder for guests, kids, or deliveries to move safely around your property. In many cases, these issues are caused by soil problems beneath the concrete—not because the concrete itself is damaged.
Poly Lift USA offers a fast, affordable solution that lifts and stabilizes walkways and sidewalks without tearing out the concrete. Our process is clean and efficient, completed in hours instead of days, with no demolition, no mess, and minimal disruption. In most cases, walkways and sidewalks are ready for use the same day, helping homeowners save 50–75% compared to full concrete replacement.
Most homeowners are relieved to learn their sidewalk can be fixed instead of replaced.
Why Walkways & Sidewalks Sink
Walkways and sidewalks are especially prone to settling because they’re often poured over shallow soil that can shift over time. Exposure to weather, moisture, and foot traffic makes them one of the most common concrete areas to sink.
Common causes include:
- Soil erosion from rain or poor drainage
- Freeze-thaw cycles that weaken the soil beneath the slab
- Poorly compacted soil at the time of installation
- Water runoff washing away support
- Natural ground movement over time
When the soil beneath a sidewalk loses strength, the concrete settles into the empty space below it—creating uneven sections and potential safety hazards.
Common Signs Your Walkway or Sidewalk Needs Leveling
Sidewalks and walkways often show warning signs before the problem gets worse. You may notice:
- Uneven slabs or raised edges between concrete sections
- Trip hazards where one slab sits higher or lower than another
- Cracks forming near sunken areas
- Water pooling on or along the sidewalk
- Gaps forming between slabs or next to curbs and foundations
- Sloped sections that weren’t there before
If you’re seeing any of these signs, addressing the issue early can help restore safety and avoid more costly repairs later.

Why Uneven Walkways & Sidewalks Should Be Addressed Early
Sunken sidewalks aren’t just inconvenient—they can become a liability over time. Uneven concrete can:
- Increase the risk of trips and falls
- Make walkways unsafe for children, guests, or deliveries
- Allow water to drain toward your home or foundation
- Continue to worsen as soil erosion progresses
Fixing the issue early helps improve safety, protect your property, and reduce the risk of more expensive repairs down the road.
Our Fix: Fast, Clean Walkway & Sidewalk Leveling with Poly Foam
Poly Lift USA levels sinking walkways and sidewalks using polyurethane concrete leveling, a clean and effective alternative to concrete replacement. This approach fills voids beneath the slab and restores proper support—addressing the real cause of the problem.
Homeowners can restore a safer, level walkway without tearing out concrete or disrupting their property.
Poly Lift USA is recognized across Florida, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, and Alabama for dependable concrete leveling solutions. Experience with soil erosion, washout, and unstable subgrade conditions allows a wide range of sidewalk and walkway settlement issues to be addressed efficiently.
How the Walkway & Sidewalk Leveling Process Works
The process is straightforward and efficient:
- Small 5/8-inch holes are drilled into the sunken areas of the concrete
- Injection ports are placed into each opening
- High-density polyurethane foam is injected beneath the slab, where it expands and gently lifts the concrete
- The ports are removed and the holes are cleaned and patched
In most cases, walkways and sidewalks are ready for normal use the same day.

Walkway & Sidewalk Leveling FAQs
Concrete driveways rest on subgrade, which is a fancy term for the earth below. When the subgrade begins to weaken and settle, the driveway loses its support. This can be caused by a variety of factors…weather, rain, leaks, excess weight to name a few. While the root causes may vary, the end result is always the same. Structural damage.
Over time, often in months, driveway slabs begin to stress, then crack and, eventually, break apart and sink. This leads to trip hazards, unsightly appearance and a reduction in property values. This damage is structural – not cosmetic. Neither patching nor a new surface will solve the problem.
At Poly Lift USA we offer customers an environmentally safe, affordable, long-term resolution.
Our Foamjection technology has enabled thousands of property owners in Florida, Georgia, Texas and Alabama to repair their damaged driveway and save thousands in replacement costs. Our typical repair is well under 50% less than cost of replacement.
Here’s how Foamjection technology works:
- Penny size holes are drilled through the damaged slab at 5-foot intervals.
- Specially formulated polyurethane foam is pumped through the slab reaching the subgrade underneath.
- The liquid foam fills voids and expands rapidly to compact the earth beneath the slab.
- As the foam hardens it locks the slab in place. We call this stabilization.
- When lift is required, additional foam is pumped using carefully calibrated pressure gauges until the slab is raised to the desired height.
- Drill holes are filled with sanded concrete.
All Poly Lift USA repairs come with a 10-year, transferable warranty.
