Doors and thresholds
The top landing must maintain safe clearance at doors and trim.
Concrete Steps Leveling
Concrete Steps Leveling for settled concrete in the Kansas City metro.
Settled steps can create an awkward first rise, pull away from a landing, or leave a gap at the porch. We evaluate whether the existing concrete can be repositioned safely.
When Concrete Loses Support
Lift the existing slab when its condition allows.
Metro Wide raises settled concrete step units and entry transitions with polyurethane foam across the Kansas City metro when the existing concrete is a suitable candidate.
Metro Wide places lightweight polyurethane foam beneath settled concrete through small drilled ports. The foam expands to fill open space and can raise the slab in controlled stages without a full tear-out.
A Controlled Process
Inspect, lift, verify, and patch.
- 01
Inspect
We review slab condition, settlement, drainage, access, and nearby fixed surfaces.
- 02
Lift
Polyurethane foam fills unsupported space and raises the low concrete gradually.
- 03
Finish
We check the transitions, patch the injection ports, and clean the work area.
Project Planning
Every slab has limits and connection points.
Existing cracks do not disappear when concrete is lifted. The achievable result also depends on the slab’s integrity and the surfaces it must meet.
Railings
Attached railings and posts may limit movement or require separate planning.
Existing cracks
Lifting changes position and support; it does not erase cracks or surface wear.
Common Questions
Helpful answers about concrete steps leveling.
Can every set of steps be lifted?
No. We inspect the construction, weight, condition, access, and connection to the porch before recommending a repair.
Will the entire step unit move together?
Many precast or monolithic units move as one piece, but the actual construction determines the approach.
