Eliminate trip hazards and keep patients safe
Sinking sidewalks, ramps, or interior floors aren’t just a maintenance issue in healthcare settings — they’re a serious safety risk. At Raise-Rite, we lift and level concrete at hospitals and medical centers using polyurethane foam that sets fast, supports heavy loads, and requires no shutdowns. We work cleanly and quickly — so your operations continue uninterrupted.
Why Does Concrete Sink Around Hospitals?
Medical buildings see high traffic from ambulances, patients, carts, and staff — often across aging concrete. Over time, moisture, erosion, or unstable soil causes slabs to settle. This creates uneven walkways, unsafe entries, and gaps around building edges. Indoors, sunken slabs can disrupt ADA compliance, door alignment, and sensitive equipment positioning.

What Are the Signs You Need Hospital Concrete Leveling?
Sunken slabs around medical buildings can cause real issues. Watch for:
Trip hazards at entries, curbs, or walkways
Ambulance bays that tilt or collect water
Cracks forming in interior patient areas
Slabs shifting under carts, beds, or medical equipment
Gaps or separations near doors, ramps, or foundations
Our Fix: Quick, Clean Concrete Leveling with Foam
Step 1) Injection holes are strategically drilled around the areas where the concrete is sunken and requires lifting.
Step 2) Once everything is prepped, and the hose and material are in place, the polyurethane foam is injected through the holes. It expands to fill the space underneath the concrete slab, using the slab itself to drive the foam into the crevices, thereby lifting the concrete back to its original position.
Step 3) Once the concrete is stabilized and lifted to the proper position, the injection holes are filled with new cement, allowing you to use your surface immediately.
Polyurethane concrete raising uses a foam material that is injected under the slab. When the components of the material are mixed, a reaction causes the material to expand. This expanded foam fill any voids beneath the slab and raises the concrete. This material will never lose density, is permanent and weighs only about 2 pounds per cubic foot.
