Municipal Walkways Lifting & Leveling
Restore Public Safety and Accessibility Without Costly Replacement. Municipal sidewalks, pedestrian pathways, and curb ramps are constantly exposed to settlement, erosion, and soil movement. Polyurethane concrete lifting provides a cost-effective solution for restoring safety and accessibility while extending the life of public assets.
Signs Municipal Walkways and Concrete Public Spaces Needs Repair
- Sidewalk trip hazards are creating safety concerns.
- ADA accessibility issues have developed.
- Pedestrian pathways have settled.
- Concrete slabs have become uneven.
- Drainage problems are contributing to settlement.
- Public complaints are increasing.
How We Fix It
1. Drill Small Injection Holes
We begin by drilling small, precise holes into the sunken concrete slab—this creates access points to inject polyurethane foam beneath the surface.
2. Lift and Level the Concrete
The expanding foam gently raises the concrete until it’s level with the surrounding surface. This process is quick, clean, and highly effective for sidewalks, driveways, patios, and slabs.
3. Patch Holes and Clean the Surface
We patch the injection holes with durable, color-matched materials and clean the area—leaving your concrete looking smooth, safe, and ready to use. Often in a matter of hours.

Municipal Walkways Lifting and Leveling FAQ
Can municipal sidewalks be repaired without replacement?
Yes. Polyurethane concrete lifting can often restore settled sidewalks and pathways without removing existing concrete.
Can concrete lifting help address ADA concerns?
Yes. Restoring proper elevations can improve accessibility and reduce uneven transitions.
Will public access be affected during repairs?
Most projects can be completed quickly with minimal disruption to pedestrian traffic.
How does concrete lifting compare to replacement?
Concrete lifting is typically faster, less disruptive, and more cost-effective than demolition and replacement.
What types of municipal infrastructure can be repaired?
Sidewalks, pathways, curb ramps, parks, public plazas, and other concrete surfaces can often be restored using polyurethane lifting.
Can polyurethane lifting be used to correct a settled municipal curb ramp?
It may be appropriate when the curb-ramp slab remains sufficiently intact and can be moved without damaging adjacent concrete, curbing, utilities, or detectable-warning surfaces. The completed ramp must still be evaluated for running slope, cross-slope, transitions, landings, clear space, and all other applicable accessibility requirements. Concrete lifting should not be presented as automatically producing ADA compliance.
Can municipal concrete repairs be completed in phases to maintain public access?
Yes. Larger projects can often be divided into work zones to help maintain access to public buildings, sidewalks, parks, transit areas, businesses, and residential properties. The sequence should account for pedestrian detours, traffic control, emergency access, public events, school schedules, permits, and any municipal safety requirements.
