Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions about concrete lifting and leveling? You’re not alone. Most homeowners and business owners want to understand how the process works, what it costs, and what to expect before getting started.
At Top Notch Raising, we believe in keeping things simple and honest. Below, you’ll find answers to the most common questions about concrete lifting, concrete leveling, polyurethane foam, and more—so you can feel confident about fixing your uneven concrete.
How Our Concrete Lifting Process Works
Concrete lifting is a process where we restore sunken or uneven concrete by injecting polyurethane foam beneath the slab. We drill small holes, then inject the foam, which expands to fill empty spaces (voids) and gently lifts the concrete back to a level position. At the same time, it stabilizes the soil underneath so the problem doesn’t continue. You can see a full breakdown here: Concrete Leveling Process
Polyurethane foam is lightweight, strong, and designed to last. Unlike older mudjacking methods, it doesn’t add heavy weight to already weak soil. It also expands to fill small gaps, resists water, and cures quickly. This allows for a cleaner, more precise lift and long-term stability. You can compare both methods here: Poly Leveling vs Mudjacking
Yes, in most cases. The main reason concrete sinks is because of empty space under the slab caused by soil erosion or settling. Our process fills those voids and stabilizes the base, not just the surface. That’s why we often include void filling as part of the repair: Void Filling
When done correctly, concrete lifting provides long-lasting results. The foam we use is designed to hold its shape, resist moisture, and support the slab for years. While no repair can guarantee zero movement forever, this method is one of the most reliable ways to fix sinking concrete without replacement.
Pricing, Estimates & Getting Started
The cost depends on several factors, including how much the concrete has sunk, the size of the area, and the condition of the soil underneath. In most cases, concrete leveling costs significantly less than full replacement because you’re not paying for demolition, hauling, or new concrete. The best way to get accurate pricing is to request a free estimate: Contact Us
Yes, we provide free, no-obligation estimates for all projects. We’ll assess the problem, explain what’s causing it, and recommend the best solution so you can make an informed decision.
Absolutely. We offer virtual estimates to make things easy. You can send photos of your driveway, patio, sidewalk, or other problem areas, and we’ll review them and provide guidance. Start here: Request a Free Estimate
In most situations, yes. Lifting allows you to fix the problem quickly and at a lower cost while keeping your existing concrete. Replacement is more expensive, takes longer, and can be disruptive. Lifting is the smarter option when the concrete is still structurally sound.
What to Expect on Project Day
Most jobs are completed in just a few hours, depending on the size and condition of the area. Smaller residential projects like driveways or sidewalks are often finished the same day.
One of the biggest benefits of polyurethane foam is how quickly it cures. In most cases, your concrete is ready to use immediately after the work is completed.
No, the process is clean and minimally invasive. We drill small holes (about the size of a coin), complete the lifting, and patch them so they blend in. There’s no heavy equipment, no large demolition, and minimal disruption.
In most cases, we just ask that you clear the area so we can access the concrete. If there are any special requirements, we’ll let you know ahead of time so everything goes smoothly.

Concrete Leveling vs Replacement
In many cases, yes. Lifting is faster, more affordable, and far less disruptive. Instead of removing and repouring concrete, we restore what you already have. This saves time, reduces waste, and gets your surface back to use much quicker.
Replacement may be necessary if the concrete is severely damaged, crumbling, or beyond repair. If the slab is still in good condition but uneven, lifting is usually the better choice.
Lifting can help stabilize the slab and prevent cracks from getting worse. However, sealing joints and cracks may also be needed to protect against water damage: Concrete Caulking
Polyurethane foam is designed for durability and long-term performance. It resists moisture and erosion, helping your concrete stay level for years when properly installed.
