Slab Lifting
Sunken concrete slabs in driveways, warehouse floors, and factory environments can create safety hazards and operational problems. Our slab lifting service uses precision injection technology to raise sunken slabs back to their original level without costly and disruptive replacement.
Key Benefits
Fraction of replacement cost
Completed in hours, not days
Precision level control
Heavy-load rated
No waste to landfill
Immediate use after treatment
Is Slab Lifting Right for You?
Ideal for
Sunken concrete driveways, paths, or patio slabs
Uneven warehouse or factory floor slabs
Trip hazards caused by settled concrete
Garage floors that have dropped below the threshold
Cost-effective alternative to full slab replacement
Not suitable for
Severely cracked or structurally broken slabs (replacement needed)
Slabs with significant reinforcement corrosion
Settlement caused by active void formation (void filling needed first)
How It Works
Survey
Level survey to map the extent of slab settlement.
Preparation
Small injection holes drilled through the slab surface.
Lifting
Resin injected beneath the slab to raise it back to level.
Finishing
Injection holes sealed and area cleaned — ready for immediate use.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does slab lifting cost compared to replacement?
Typically 50–70% less than full slab replacement. A residential driveway lift usually costs £1,500–£4,000 versus £5,000–£12,000+ for complete removal and re-laying.
Will the slab sink again after lifting?
No, not if the root cause is addressed. The resin permanently strengthens the ground beneath the slab. Where voids or drainage issues contributed, we treat those as part of the project.
Can badly cracked slabs be lifted?
It depends. Slabs with minor cracking can usually be lifted successfully. Severely fractured or structurally broken slabs may need partial or full replacement — we'll advise during the free survey.
How long does slab lifting take?
Most residential jobs — driveways, garage floors, patios — are completed in 2–4 hours. Larger commercial floors may take 1–2 days. The slab is ready for use immediately after treatment.
Can you lift a slab under a building?
Yes. Internal floor slabs in homes, warehouses, and factories can be lifted through small injection holes without disrupting the building above. No excavation or heavy equipment is needed.
Do you need to remove the existing slab?
No. That's the key advantage — we inject directly through the slab surface via small 16mm holes, so nothing needs to be broken out or removed.
