Raising sinking concrete costs less than replacing it. '58 Foundation's & Waterproofing's professional and honest estimators are the best to provide accurate diagnosis and solutions for your concrete sinking and settling issues.
The contraction and expansion of soils compromise all kinds of concrete structures, from flatwork to foundations. '58 Foundations & Waterproofing uses state-of-the-art, expandable polyurethane foam to raise and stabilize concrete. This process can be done for a fraction of the cost of replacement and can be used within minutes. If you reside in eastern Tennessee, including Knoxville, Chattanooga, Johnson City and the Tri Cities, we can eliminate your tripping hazards in sunken concrete driveways, garage floors, sidewalks, patios and more.
Cause #1: Poor Compaction
The area around your home's foundation often contains loose soil and fill from construction. Tennessee homes with basements require over-excavation for foundation walls. After pouring, this area is backfilled, but the loose fill tends to settle over time. Consequently, concrete structures in this “compaction zone” sink as the underlying soil settles.
Cause #2: Water
Water compacts soil, and poor drainage combined with rain and snowmelt evacuates air pockets beneath your concrete. As moisture dries, voids form, causing the soil to collapse and take the concrete with it, resulting in settling, sinking, and cracking. Flooding from leaks can also lead to these problems. However, our water-resistant poly foam can improve underlying water issues that caused the damage.
Cause #3: Inadequate Drainage
Constant water under concrete can lead to failure. Many homeowners overlook grading, allowing water to flow toward their foundation. When you notice inadequate drainage, it’s crucial to address it. Leaky gutters, downspouts, and excessive watering near concrete can cause the soil and concrete to sink. Correcting drainage along with leveling your concrete with ‘58 Foundations and Waterproofing is essential.

Yes, in most cases. Concrete leveling can be used to lift and support cracked or sunken slabs, as long as the concrete is still structurally sound. Small cracks are common and don’t always require replacement. During your inspection, we’ll check the condition of your slab and let you know whether leveling is the right solution.
Concrete leveling is a process used to lift and stabilize sunken or uneven concrete slabs. At ‘58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we use a precision foam injection method that fills voids beneath the slab and raises it back to its original position. The result is a smooth, level surface, without having to demolish and re-pour your concrete.
In many cases, yes. Concrete leveling is faster, less disruptive, and far more affordable than tearing out and replacing concrete. Most leveling jobs take just a few hours, and your surface is ready to use the same day. It’s an ideal solution for sunken sidewalks, driveways, patios, and pool decks, without the mess or high cost of full replacement.
Concrete leveling costs vary depending on the size of the area, how much the slab has settled, and the method used. While national averages range widely, the best way to understand your true cost is through a free on-site inspection. At ‘58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we’ll assess your concrete and provide a clear, no-obligation estimate, so you know exactly what you're paying for and why.
