Fortify Atlanta LLC has introduced polymer injection leveling for settled concrete slabs, offering property owners an alternative to slab removal and replacement for driveways, walkways, patios, and interior floors.

The method involves injecting expanding polymer material beneath a settled slab through small ports drilled in the surface, according to the company. Representatives said the material fills voids beneath the concrete and raises the slab back toward level, and that the ports are patched once the lift is complete.

Void formation is what causes most settling, according to representatives. They said soil beneath a slab compacts or washes out over time, leaving the concrete unsupported, and that addressing the void matters as much as correcting the surface height.

Drainage is frequently the underlying cause, according to the company. Representatives said water moving beneath a slab erodes supporting soil, and that assessments identify where water is entering, since leveling without addressing drainage often produces recurring settlement.

Property owners searching for a concrete leveling company in Atlanta typically call after noticing a trip hazard or water pooling where it previously drained, according to representatives. They said these are the two conditions that most often prompt a call.

Georgia soil conditions contribute to settling locally, according to the company. Representatives said the region’s clay-heavy soil expands and contracts with moisture changes, and that this cycle produces movement beneath slabs that does not occur in more stable soil types.

The method is not appropriate for every slab, according to representatives. They said concrete that is extensively cracked or structurally compromised warrants replacement rather than leveling, and that assessments determine which applies before work is quoted.

Project timelines are shorter than replacement, according to the company. Representatives said most residential leveling work is completed within a day and surfaces can generally be used shortly afterward, compared with the curing period new concrete requires.

Material waste is lower than with replacement, according to representatives. They said leveling retains the existing slab rather than sending it to disposal, and that this accounts for much of the cost difference between the two approaches.

Commercial work accounts for a portion of the company’s projects, according to the company. Representatives said warehouse floors, loading areas and walkways carry accessibility and liability considerations, and that scheduling accounts for keeping areas in use where possible.

The company has published material covering concrete settling and leveling, according to representatives. They said topics include what causes settlement, how leveling compares with replacement, and what property owners can expect during a project.

Access requirements are minimal compared with replacement, according to the company. Representatives said the equipment does not require the heavy machinery slab removal involves, which they said matters for properties where landscaping, fencing or limited driveway width would complicate a replacement project.

Pool decks and steps account for a portion of residential requests, according to representatives. They said settling around pools is common because of both soil disturbance during original construction and water exposure afterward, and that these areas frequently show separation before other parts of a property do.

Technician training covers injection technique and lift monitoring, according to the company. Representatives said raising a slab requires attention to how the concrete responds during injection, since applying material too quickly in one location can crack a slab rather than lift it evenly.

The company said assessments include measuring the extent of settlement across a slab. According to representatives, a surface that appears uniformly settled sometimes varies considerably across its length, and measurement determines how much material a project requires and where it is applied.

The company said it plans to review demand across project types before expanding. Representatives said decisions will depend on the mix of residential and commercial work, and that no timeline has been set.
