Patios on hillside lots
Patios on sloped lots often tip as fill and soil beneath them settle. Lifting the low side can restore slope away from the house so water does not run toward the foundation. Cracked sections may need replacement.

Sunken concrete repair in Bonner Springs.
Bonner Springs has a small-town core and a mix of housing that reaches back many decades. Older homes near downtown have narrow walks, porch steps, and short driveways. Newer subdivisions on the hills around town have wider driveways and patios. The city is also home to the National Agricultural Center and Hall of Fame and the outdoor amphitheater near the Kansas River, and K-7 and I-70 make it easy to reach from the rest of the metro. Wyandotte County Park is also nearby.
Bonner Springs homeowners usually call us about a patio that has tipped toward the house, a driveway panel that has dropped at the garage, or a walk that has become uneven at the joints. Polyurethane foam leveling lifts those slabs in place by filling the empty space underneath. We drill small ports, inject the foam, and raise the concrete in steps. There is no tear-out, no haul-off, and the patches are small. We are honest when a slab is too far gone and replacement is a better option. Small patched ports are the only sign of the work.

Local Conditions
Why concrete settles in Bonner Springs.
Bonner Springs straddles two very different kinds of ground. Lower parts of town near the Kansas River sit on alluvial soils, layers of silt, sand, and clay left by floods. Those soils can compress unevenly and respond to changes in groundwater. On the hills above, the ground is loess and clay, which swells and shrinks with moisture and can erode when water flows through it. Where these two soils meet along the valley edge, slabs can settle unevenly.
Terrain plays a role as well. On sloped lots, water runs downhill along driveways and walks, and where it flows under a slab it carries soil away. Newer homes on the hills often sit on graded or filled pads, and that fill keeps compacting for years. Older homes have concrete that has been through decades of freeze–thaw cycles and was sometimes poured on very little base. Downspouts that empty right beside a slab are a common trigger in every part of town. We look at drainage closely when we review your project. Even modest changes in grading can help.
Signs your slab has lost support
- A lip or step-up at a driveway, sidewalk, or garage joint
- A patio or walk that tips toward the house
- Gaps opening between steps, stoops, and the foundation
- Water pooling on a slab or flowing toward the home
- Hollow sounds or visible washout along a slab edge
Common Bonner Springs Projects
The concrete we lift most often in Bonner Springs.
Every slab is different, so we start with what is happening at your property. These are the repairs Bonner Springs property owners ask us about most.
Garage aprons and driveways
When the apron drops below the garage floor, a lip forms and water runs inside. Raising the apron improves the transition and drainage. This is one of the most common jobs we see on newer homes in the area.
Porch steps and walks downtown
Older homes near downtown Bonner Springs often have walks that have sunk where they meet porch steps. Lifting the walk can close the gap and reduce trip hazards. The original concrete stays in place, and ports are patched afterward.
Commercial entries
Businesses along the main corridors use foam leveling to fix sunken entry slabs and sidewalk sections with less downtime than replacement. Work can usually be planned around business hours so entrances stay usable. Ports are small and patched.

- 2-year residential warranty. Residential lifting is backed by Metro Wide’s 2-year warranty.
- Keeps your existing concrete. No demolition, haul-off, forms, or new pour when the slab is still structurally usable.
- Small, discreet ports. Polyurethane needs much smaller holes than traditional mudjacking.
- Lightweight material. The foam adds support without loading weak soil with heavy slurry.

Bonner Springs Concrete Leveling FAQ
Questions from Bonner Springs property owners.
My home in Bonner Springs is near the river. Does that matter?
It can. River-bottom soils can compress unevenly and respond to groundwater changes, so slabs on that ground may settle differently than those on the hills. Foam leveling fills the voids under the slab and is water-resistant once cured. We will look at your photos and let you know if anything about the site affects how the lift is likely to hold.
How much of my driveway needs to be lifted?
Only the sections that have settled. Most driveways do not sink evenly, so we lift the low panels to bring them back toward the rest. Send a wide photo of the whole driveway and close-ups of each low joint with a tape measure showing the drop. We can quote from those.
Is there a warranty on residential leveling?
Yes. Our residential polyurethane leveling carries a 2-year warranty, and we can go over the terms when we send your quote. We also point out drainage problems like short downspouts or soil washing out at slab edges, since addressing those helps keep the concrete where we put it. Ask us if you have questions about coverage.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Residential concrete lifting from Metro Wide is backed by a 2-year warranty. We will explain what is covered for your project when we provide the quote.
When is replacement a better choice than leveling?
If the concrete is badly broken, crumbling, severely spalled, or cannot move without damaging a fixed structure, replacement may be the better investment. We tell you when a slab is not a good lifting candidate rather than recommending a repair that will not hold up. Our leveling vs. replacement guide covers the trade-offs.
Can leveling fix water running toward my foundation?
Sometimes. Raising a patio, walk, or driveway panel that settled toward the house can restore some pitch away from the foundation. Drainage also depends on gutters, downspouts, and surrounding grades, so we point out anything that is likely to undo the repair.
