Real-Life Examples of Concrete Lifting

Concrete lifting, also known as slab jacking, is a practical solution for addressing issues with uneven or sinking concrete slabs. Here are some real-life examples showcasing the effectiveness of this method:

1. Residential Driveways and Sidewalks: Homeowners often face the issue of sinking driveways and sidewalks due to soil erosion or settlement. For example, in Eastwood, a team used high-density resin injection to lift and level a sinking driveway. The process involved injecting a polyurethane foam under the slab, which expanded and lifted the concrete back to its original position. This method was quick, with the repaired driveway being ready for use within minutes, significantly reducing trip hazards and improving the home's curb appeal.
2. Commercial Buildings: In commercial settings, such as warehouses or office buildings, uneven floors can pose safety risks and disrupt operations. A notable project involved lifting a large commercial concrete slab in Ultimo. By using a high-flow resin injection, the team was able to correct the unevenness caused by soil subsidence. This approach not only restored the floor’s functionality but also minimized downtime for the business.
3. Public Infrastructure: Roads and other public infrastructures are prone to damage from constant traffic and weather conditions. For instance, a significant project on the A465 highway involved using concrete lifting techniques to address subsidence issues. By injecting specialized grout beneath the

Concrete slab lifting has been used successfully in many different applications, from residential driveways and sidewalks to commercial parking lots and warehouse floors. Here are some real-life examples of successful concrete slab lifting projects:

• 
  
• A homeowner in Sydney had a sinking front porch that was causing water to pool near the foundation. Concrete slab lifting was used to lift the porch back into place and prevent further damage.
• 
  
• A business owner in Bondi had a sunken loading dock that was causing safety concerns. Concrete slab lifting was used to lift the dock and provide a level surface for loading and unloading.
