LiftPro Concrete Leveling & Repair is a locally owned and operated concrete lifting company based in Waterloo, Illinois, serving Monroe County and surrounding communities across the Greater St. Louis Metro Area and Southern Illinois. We focus on one thing: repairing and restoring sunken or uneven concrete without the disruption, cost, and long timelines that often come with tearing out slabs. Our work is built around polyurethane foam injection (polyjacking), a modern concrete-lifting method designed to raise settled slabs, fill voids beneath the surface, and help stabilize the area so your concrete looks and functions the way it should.
LiftPro was started by Todd Markarian and Kenworth Johnston after years of seeing the same problem on properties across the region: driveways sloping away, sidewalks becoming trip hazards, patios settling into awkward dips, and porches pulling or leaning due to shifting soil and drainage issues. They recognized that homeowners and property managers needed a more affordable and straightforward solution—one that respects the customer’s time and budget while still delivering professional results. That goal still drives our team today, whether the project is a small residential repair or a larger commercial surface where safety and liability are paramount.
Our process is simple and minimally invasive. We drill small, dime-sized holes, inject high-strength polyurethane foam, and allow it to expand beneath the slab, lifting it back toward its original position. In many cases, the area can be used again within hours. We also partner with HMI foam systems and injection equipment, including foam manufactured with recycled and renewable components, so customers who care about environmental impact can feel confident discussing options with our team. Above all, we believe in honest recommendations, dependable workmanship, and a service experience that feels professional from the first estimate to the final cleanup.
Focused on concrete lifting, not replacement
LiftPro specializes in concrete lifting and leveling using polyurethane foam injection. That focus matters because it means our process, training, and equipment are centered on raising and stabilizing existing slabs rather than tearing them out. If your driveway, walkway, patio, porch, garage floor, or commercial concrete has settled due to voids, soil movement, or drainage issues, polyjacking is often the most practical solution to restore function and safety without weeks of disruption.
Fast turnaround with minimal disruption
Concrete replacement can take days or weeks from demolition to hauling, pouring, and curing. Our lifting process is designed to be quick and efficient: small access holes, controlled foam injection, and a cure time of about an hour. In many cases, you can walk on the repaired surface within hours, and driveways may be ready for normal use the same day. That speed helps homeowners get back to normal and helps businesses reduce downtime.
Honest assessments and clear recommendations
Not every slab can or should be lifted. When concrete is severely broken, crumbling, or structurally compromised, replacement may make more sense. LiftPro is committed to providing straightforward guidance based on what we see onsite. We explain why the problem occurred, what our process can realistically accomplish, and the limitations. If lifting won't solve the issue, we’ll recommend alternatives rather than oversell a service that won't hold up.
Warranty-backed work and service that stays accountable
As a local company, we are tied to the neighborhoods we serve. We stand behind our results and want customers to feel confident long after the project is complete. If you are not satisfied within the warranty period, we will return and address the issue. That commitment reflects how we operate: careful work, clean finish details, and support that doesn't disappear after the invoice.
If you’re dealing with sunken concrete, the goal shouldn’t be to start over—it should be to restore what you already have in the most practical way. LiftPro Concrete Leveling & Repair is built around a clean, efficient lifting process that helps bring driveways, sidewalks, patios, porches, garage floors, and commercial surfaces back toward level without the cost and disruption of replacement. With small drill holes, fast-curing foam, and results you can often use the same day, our approach is designed to fit real life and real schedules.
