The Problem
on't replace it - Raise it! Sinking concrete can be repaired with greater ease and expense, often hundreds of dollars less, than replacing it! The soil underneath driveways, sidewalks, and patios can erode with changing weather conditions or constant exposure to water. You will easily notice a problem when shoveling snow or trying to level patio furniture.

Tri State Concrete uses a process of Grout Injection to raise sunken concrete. By drilling a series of 1½" holes through the slab, a mixture of lime, Portland cement, and water is injected under controlled hydraulic pressure to fill all voids and hollows. Once these voids are filled, the injected mixture "floats" the slab to the desired height. The holes are then cleaned and filled with mason sand and cement. The patch holes will be a different color at first, but given time will blend with existing concrete. By carefully controlling the proportions of the grout mixture, we can raise the slab precisely, while maintaining material which will not shrink or settle with time.
Low Cost |
Most slabs can be raised for less than half the replacement cost. |
Hassle Free |
Most jobs can be completed in a matter of hours. Flexible scheduling allows for little if no disruption of normal activities. All work is done through the slab so there is no adverse affects to landscaping and adjacent areas. |
Stability |
The injected mixture is very dense; therefore, the leveled concrete can expect to stay level. |
Safety |
Eliminates aggravation and potential injury of family, friends, or customers. Responsibility for personal injury rests on the property owner. |
Resale Value |
Standing or run-off water can cause ground erosion and possible structural damage. Improved appearance and increased property value will more than justify the expense. |
