Fix Sunken Concrete & eliminate trip-hazards Without Disrupting Your Tenants
Uneven sidewalks, entryways, or dumpster pads at your retail center aren’t just an eyesore — they’re a liability. At RaiseRite, we level concrete fast using clean polyurethane foam, so your tenants stay open and your customers stay safe. No saw-cutting. No loud machinery. Most repairs are done in just a few hours.
Why Does Concrete Sink Around Strip Malls?
Retail centers deal with heavy foot traffic, vehicle loads, poor drainage, and aging infrastructure. Over time, the soil beneath sidewalks, ramps, and slabs starts to shift. This leads to tripping hazards, water pooling near entrances, or sunken loading areas behind buildings. When ignored, it creates safety risks and expensive repair needs.
We also level concrete at restaurants, churches, hospitals, schools, and municipal buildings. View all commercial concrete leveling services for more.

What Are the Signs You Need Concrete Leveling at a Strip Mall?
These issues are common — and fixable with foam leveling:
Trip hazards at sidewalk joints or entrances
Gaps forming between slabs and storefronts
Dumpster or loading zones sinking behind buildings
Drainage problems causing pooling near walkways
Slabs settling near drive-thrus or parking islands
Our Fix: Quick, Clean Concrete Leveling with Foam
Step 1) Injection holes are strategically drilled around the areas where the concrete is sunken and requires lifting.

Step 2) Once everything is prepped, and the hose and material are in place, the polyurethane foam is injected through the holes. It expands to fill the space underneath the concrete slab, using the slab itself to drive the foam into the crevices, thereby lifting the concrete back to its original position.

Step 3) Once the concrete is stabilized and lifted to the proper position, the injection holes are filled with new cement, allowing you to use your surface immediately.
Polyurethane concrete raising uses a foam material that is injected under the slab. When the components of the material are mixed, a reaction causes the material to expand. This expanded foam fill any voids beneath the slab and raises the concrete. This material will never lose density, is permanent and weighs only about 2 pounds per cubic foot.
