What Causes Concrete to Sink in South Elgin?

Located near the Fox River, South Elgin’s mix of moisture, clay-rich soils, and seasonal weather patterns can lead to concrete settlement. Common causes include:

  • Water erosion from rain, gutter runoff, or poor drainage
  • Expanding and contracting clay soils
  • Frost heave during freeze-thaw cycles
  • Inadequate soil compaction at the time of construction
  • Decomposing organic material like old tree roots or buried debris

These factors create empty spaces under your concrete slabs, causing them to crack, shift, and sink over time.

Why We Use PolyLevel® Instead of Mudjacking

PolyLevel® is a high-performance polyurethane foam that lifts and levels concrete precisely — without the downsides of mudjacking.

  • Lightweight material doesn’t add stress to unstable soils
  • Quick cure time — most surfaces ready in 2-4 hours
  • Waterproof and won’t erode or wash out
  • Smaller drill holes than traditional methods
  • Long-lasting results backed by years of proven performance

If you want a clean, fast, and minimally invasive fix, PolyLevel® is the modern solution that outperforms mudjacking every time.

PolyLevel Concrete Leveling

Our Concrete Leveling Process

1. Inspection & Evaluation

We start with a detailed on-site inspection to evaluate the severity and cause of the uneven concrete.

2. Drill & Prep

We drill small access holes (less than a dime in size) into the slab for injection points.

3. Foam Injection (Polyjacking)

Polyurethane foam is injected beneath the slab, expanding to lift and level the concrete precisely.
