What is Concrete Sidewalk Repair?
Concrete sidewalk repair addresses issues such as cracks, sinking, and other forms of concrete damage.
While some homeowners may opt for DIY repairs or traditional solutions like mudjacking or complete slab replacement, these methods are often expensive, invasive, and temporary. They fail to address the root causes of sidewalk issues, such as soil instability and water saturation.
Mount Valley’s advanced repairs are rooted in understanding regional challenges and addressing them head-on. Our proprietary PolyRenewal™ system stands out as an effective and environmentally friendly solution. This concrete leveling method not only offers standalone benefits but also complements our other home solutions, ensuring long-term structural stability for your home.
Signs You Need Sidewalk Repair
Maintaining a safe environment depends on identifying the need for sidewalk repair. You should consider fixing your sidewalk if it has any of the following problems:
- Noticeable cracks
- Uneven sections
- Sinking or tilted slabs
- Pitting, flaking, or staining on the surface
- Areas of water pooling after rainfall
These concrete issues will not go away with time. Quick action minimizes the need for costly extensive repairs, averts safety risks, and stops additional damage. At the first sign of these problems, contact a concrete repair expert like Mount Valley Foundation Services.
Is Sidewalk Repair Important?
A well-maintained sidewalk isn’t just about curb appeal; repairing a concrete sidewalk is crucial for maintaining safety. Ignoring necessary repairs can lead to more extensive damage, jeopardize your home and family’s safety, and result in more costly and complex solutions in the future.
Acting quickly helps preserve the sidewalk and ensures both financial and physical safety. Incorporating these repairs as part of a comprehensive solution for your home can also prevent structural and environmental issues, leading to a safer, more attractive residence.

Sidewalk Repair FAQs
The cost of repairing a sidewalk depends on several factors, such as the extent of the damage, the size of the area that needs attention, and the type of repairs required.

No, our exclusive PolyRenewal™ system is designed to lift the existing concrete slabs to their original locations without demolition. Unlike other techniques, such as mudjacking or full replacement, this method involves only minimal drilling.
Traditional repair methods like mudjacking and repouring can take days to cure before the sidewalk can be used. However, Mount Valley Foundation Services’ concrete leveling procedure can be completed within a single day. Our polyurethane foam hardens in just 15 minutes, allowing immediate use of the sidewalk after installation.
Disclaimer: “Concrete leveling” means the process by which cracked, uneven concrete is stabilized, and in many cases lifted, by means of PolyRenewal™ polyurethane foam. Mount Valley Foundation Services does not guarantee that PolyRenewal™ can make your concrete perfectly level.
