Large cracks along a retaining wall or garden edge are often the first sign of soil erosion. Left untreated, water can wash away more material, causing the slab to sink further and creating potential trip hazards.
In Ramara, Ontario, we stabilized this area using high-density polyurethane foam injection. Our precision process reached deep voids beneath the concrete, lifting heavy slabs back to their original position while stabilizing the soil.
Once stabilized, we applied premium crack and joint sealant to repair cracks and protect the area from future erosion. The result is a safe, level, and durable backyard space that’s both functional and visually appealing.
It started with a sinking feeling—literally. This Walkerton, Ontario homeowner noticed their front walkway was beginning to separate and settle, creating a noticeable gap and a serious trip hazard right at the main entrance of the home. Over time, shifting soil beneath the concrete had left sections unsupported and uneven.
Looking for a permanent solution without the disruption and cost of a full concrete replacement, the homeowner contacted Canadian Concrete Leveling.
Using our specialized two-part polyurethane injection process, we filled the voids beneath the walkway through small, dime-sized access points. The material expanded beneath the slabs to stabilize the base and carefully lift the concrete back toward its original position, closing the gap and restoring a safe, even surface.
In just a few hours, the hazard at the front entrance was eliminated. The result is a solid, stable walkway with immediate usability—no demolition, no new concrete, and minimal disruption.
This driveway in Kitchener, Ontario had experienced noticeable settlement over time, creating a significant lip at the garage entrance. This type of height difference can make both vehicle entry and foot traffic uneven and can also create a trip hazard.
To correct the issue, a two part polyurethane injection was used to lift and stabilize the affected concrete slabs. The material was injected beneath the driveway to fill voids in the soil and gently raise the settled sections back toward a smoother transition at the garage.
Because the material cures quickly, the driveway was stabilized shortly after the work was completed with minimal disruption to use.
The result is a more even and functional driveway surface with a smoother transition into the garage, improving both safety and overall appearance.
What started as a few small settling issues slowly turned into a real source of frustration for this Kitchener family. Over the years, shifting soil beneath the home caused the backyard concrete patio to sink and pull apart, leaving behind a web of deep cracks that made the surface uneven and unsafe. In addition to the visual impact, the raised and sunken edges created trip hazards and allowed water to collect closer to the foundation than anyone would want.
Wanting to protect their home and enjoy their outdoor space again, the homeowners reached out to Canadian Concrete Leveling for help. Our team arrived on site and took a thoughtful, non-invasive approach, using polyurethane injection to gently lift the sunken sections and fill the voids below. This process restored stability to the concrete while minimizing disruption to the surrounding area.
Once the slabs were properly aligned, we carefully filled and sealed each crack with our weather-resistant sealant, bringing the patio back together as a single, cohesive surface. This added layer of protection helps keep moisture out and is designed to stand up to Southwestern Ontario’s freeze-thaw cycles.
By the end of the afternoon, the patio felt solid, safe, and welcoming again. The homeowners were able to step back outside the very same day, confident their concrete was stabilized and their outdoor space was ready to be enjoyed for years to come.
A homeowner in Elora reached out because their front walkway had become a major safety concern. Over time, the concrete slabs on both sides had settled, creating significant trip hazards at the base of the porch steps and leaving gaps against the foundation where water could pool.

The result was a safe, functional path to the front door that also enhanced the home’s curb appeal. The entire project was completed in just a few hours, providing the homeowner with peace of mind and a cost-effective alternative to full concrete replacement.
