Slab Leveling and Void Filling
Commercial slab leveling and void filling in Allen, TX
As a general contractor working directly with developers and property owners, we deliver slab leveling and void filling services for commercial and industrial properties throughout Allen, TX and the DFW metroplex. No subcontracting, just our experienced crews, your project, and clear accountability.
Service Overview
Settled or uneven concrete slabs create trip hazards, drainage problems, and operational issues for commercial properties. Slab leveling and void filling restore level surfaces without the cost and disruption of slab replacement.
Void filling addresses the underlying cause of settlement by filling voids beneath slabs with stabilizing materials. Without addressing voids, slabs continue to settle regardless of surface treatment. We inject polyurethane foam or grout materials that fill voids, stabilize soil, and lift slabs to level.
Commercial applications include warehouse floors with settled areas, parking lots with sunken panels, loading docks with uneven approaches, and any concrete where settlement affects operations or safety. Leveling restores function quickly with minimal disruption.
Slab leveling is particularly valuable for occupied commercial properties where replacement would require extended closure. We complete most leveling projects in hours rather than the days or weeks required for replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about slab leveling and void filling
What causes concrete slabs to settle?
Settlement results from soil compaction, erosion, utility washout, organic decomposition, or inadequate original compaction. Identifying the cause helps determine whether leveling alone will solve the problem or additional measures are needed.
How much can settled slabs be lifted?
We commonly lift slabs several inches to restore level. The practical limit depends on surrounding conditions and how the slab was originally placed. Very large lifts may not be achievable without damaging the slab.
Is slab leveling permanent?
When root causes are addressed, leveling results are permanent. If underlying soil continues to move or erode, further settlement may occur. We assess conditions and recommend appropriate solutions for lasting results.
How quickly can leveled areas return to service?
Polyurethane foam cures rapidly, allowing traffic within 15-30 minutes of injection. Cementitious grouts require longer cure time. We specify materials appropriate for required return-to-service timelines.
What materials do you use for void filling?
We use expanding polyurethane foam for most applications due to fast cure, light weight, and precise lift control. Cementitious grouts may be specified for certain structural applications. Material selection depends on conditions and requirements.
