Concrete Sidewalk Repair Contractors in Washington & Northern Idaho

Slabjack Geotechnical specializes in professional concrete sidewalk repair throughout Washington and Northern Idaho. Since 2011, our family-owned company has provided property owners with safe, cost-effective alternatives to full replacement. Over the years, we’ve lifted and leveled thousands of sidewalks, helping homeowners, businesses, and municipalities eliminate trip hazards while restoring the value and appearance of their properties.

Uneven sidewalks are more than cosmetic concerns—they’re serious safety issues. Left unaddressed, cracks and sinking slabs can cause injuries, lead to liability claims, and even lower property value. Our mission is simple: to provide durable, eco-friendly, and affordable solutions that extend the life of your concrete.

Understanding the Causes of Sidewalk Damage

Sidewalks face stress every single day, and small problems quickly grow into major issues. Understanding the causes helps property owners see why sidewalk concrete repair is so important.

Soil Erosion and Drainage Issues

When water seeps under a slab, it can wash soil away, leaving hollow spaces. Without support, sidewalks shift and sink.

Tree Root Intrusion

Roots from nearby trees often lift concrete slabs. While trees add beauty, their roots create uneven sidewalks that require professional repair.

Settling and Poorly Compacted Soil

During construction, if the ground isn’t compacted properly, the soil continues to settle over time, leaving sidewalks uneven.

Freeze-Thaw Cycles

In Washington and Idaho, water expands when frozen, creating cracks and forcing slabs upward. When temperatures rise, the water drains away, leaving weakened or sunken areas.

Heavy Loads and Traffic

Foot traffic, wheelchairs, strollers, and small vehicles may not seem significant, but over years, the stress adds up. Combined with other factors, sidewalks crack and sink.

The impact: uneven slabs create tripping hazards, violate ADA accessibility standards, and reduce curb appeal. That’s why professional concrete sidewalk repair is the smarter choice over ignoring the problem or attempting DIY fixes.

Innovative Concrete Sidewalk Repair Methods

Concrete Sidewalk Repair

At Slabjack Geotechnical, we believe in smarter, cleaner, and longer-lasting repair methods. Our signature approach—slabjacking—offers property owners a safe and cost-effective solution.

Slabjacking: The Science of Concrete Lifting

Instead of tearing out and replacing entire sections of sidewalk, we drill small holes in the slab and inject a specialized high-density polyurethane foam beneath it. The foam expands, filling voids, compacting loose soil, and lifting the slab back into position.

This non-invasive method restores stability while addressing the underlying cause of the problem. Unlike temporary patch jobs, slabjacking delivers permanent results that protect your property for years.

Why Slabjacking Works Better than Replacement

  • Minimal Disruption – No loud demolition crews or blocked walkways for weeks.
  • Immediate Results – Sidewalks are ready for use within hours.
  • Cost Savings – On average, slabjacking costs 50–70% less than full replacement.
  • Eco-Friendly – Reuses existing concrete, reducing landfill waste and carbon emissions.
  • Durable – Our proprietary polymers are weather-resistant and designed for Washington and Idaho soils.

For property owners searching for concrete sidewalk repair contractors, slabjacking provides the right balance of affordability, reliability, and long-term value.
