Concrete Leveling in Bellevue
Restore Safety & Comfort Around Your Home
If you are stepping over raised edges on your sidewalk or driving across a sunken section of driveway, it can be hard to ignore. Uneven concrete is more than a cosmetic issue; it can create trip hazards, affect drainage, and slowly impact the comfort of your home.
At iFOAM Insulation of Omaha, we help homeowners in Bellevue and nearby communities lift and level settled concrete so their property feels safe, welcoming, and easier to maintain. Our friendly team looks at how your slabs, foundation, and insulation all work together, then recommends a practical way forward.
Because our installers are trained in the iFOAM way and follow strict safety protocols, you can expect a careful inspection, a clear explanation of options, and a process that is planned to fit your home and your schedule.
Stop the trip hazards! Reach out online or call (402) 588-5146 for a concrete lifting consultation.
How Our Concrete Leveling Service Works
Knowing what to expect can make any project feel easier. When you contact us about settled or uneven concrete, we follow a clear, step-by-step process designed to give you answers and options without surprises.
It starts with an on-site visit where our team looks closely at the areas you are worried about. We measure slab movement, check for cracks, and look at how water drains around your driveway, sidewalks, or patio. We also ask about any changes you have noticed over time, such as new trip lines or water that now runs toward the house instead of away from it.
After we understand the situation, we talk through whether this type of repair is a good fit for your slabs. If it is, we explain how we plan to lift the concrete, which areas we will work on, and roughly how long the project may take. You will know where our crew needs access, what kind of equipment is involved, and how we intend to manage dust and debris.
On the day of the work, our installers arrive with the materials and tools needed to raise the slabs in a controlled way. We prepare the area, follow our safety procedures, and begin lifting the concrete in small, measured increments. Throughout the process, we keep an eye on the height and slope of each slab so that it lines up with neighboring sections and promotes better drainage.
We aim to keep disruption to a minimum. Many residential projects are completed within a day, although timing can vary based on the size and number of slabs. When the lifting is complete, we clean up our work area and walk the site with you. During this final check, we review what was done, discuss how soon you can drive or walk on the surface, and answer any remaining questions.
Signs You Need Concrete Leveling
You might not be sure if it is time to call someone about your concrete. Certain changes around your property can be early warning signs that slabs are settling and that it is wise to take a closer look before the problem grows.
In this part of Nebraska, shifting soils and freeze-thaw cycles can cause sections of concrete to rise, sink, or tilt over time. Moisture that moves in and out of the soil below your driveway or walkway can lead to voids that no longer support the slab evenly. As this happens, the concrete may drop in one corner or along one edge.
If these changes are ignored, gaps and trip hazards can widen, water may start flowing toward your foundation, and small cracks can become larger. Addressing settled areas when you first notice them often helps you protect the surrounding concrete and maintain better drainage.
Look for these common signs around your home:
- Raised edges between sidewalk panels that create clear trip lips
- Driveway slabs that have dropped at the garage or street end
- Water pooling on or beside patios, steps, or walkways after rain
- Patio doors or gates that drag or no longer close smoothly over concrete
- Visible gaps under slabs where soil has washed away
If you recognize a few of these signs on your property, we can inspect the area and let you know whether a concrete leveling service is a practical way to bring those surfaces back to a more even, useful condition.
Concrete Leveling & Home Comfort
Concrete around your home does more than give you a place to park or walk. It also helps control how water moves around your foundation, crawl space, or basement. When slabs settle or tilt, that balance can change in ways that affect comfort inside the home.
For example, a driveway that has dropped toward the garage can direct more water toward the structure, which may eventually increase moisture in nearby walls or in the crawl space. A patio that has settled toward the house can push water against the foundation instead of out into the yard. Over time, that extra moisture can contribute to musty odors, uncomfortable rooms, and higher energy use.
Because we also provide insulation, air sealing, and crawl space encapsulation, we look at how all of these pieces fit together. In some homes, leveling a patio or walkway is one part of a broader plan that might also include sealing a crawl space or improving insulation to reduce drafts and temperature swings.
Our goal is to suggest combinations of services that make sense for your specific home. In one situation, that might mean raising a settled sidewalk to remove a trip hazard and improve drainage. In another, it could involve lifting a slab near a damp crawl space and then encapsulating that crawl space to manage humidity and improve comfort. We walk you through these options so you can decide what feels right for your budget and priorities.

How Do I Know If My Home Needs New Insulation?
Here are several signs that your home may need new insulation:
- Frozen Pipes
- Uneaven Temperatures Throughout Your Home
- Cold Floors
- High Energy Bills
- Drafts Around Windows and Doors
- Ice dams
Finally, consider the age of your insulation:
- Batt/Fiberglass. Fiberglass insulation should last roughly 7-10 years.
- Cellulose. Blown-in cellulose should last roughly 10-15 years.
- Spray Foam. Spray foam should last 80-100 years, or the age of the house (as long as it was installed properly).
Our experts can provide an accurate assessment of the state of your home’s insulation. We'll consider your energy efficiency with state-of-the-art technology and years of industry know-how.
