St. Louis has a character all its own—historic neighborhoods, lively streets, and homes that reflect the city’s rich history. But when the concrete around your property begins to sink, crack, or tilt, that sense of charm can quickly disappear. Maybe your driveway rattles your car every time you pull in, your sidewalk makes you nervous when guests visit, or your patio holds standing water long after the rain ends. These aren’t just cosmetic issues; they’re real signs that your concrete is failing.
That’s where Helitech comes in. For more than 35 years, we’ve been the trusted partner for homeowners across the St. Louis metro.

St. Louis has unique soil and weather conditions that make concrete settlement a frequent challenge for homeowners. The clay-rich ground beneath many properties expands significantly when it takes on water and then shrinks during dry spells. This constant swelling and contracting weakens the support under concrete slabs. Add in spring rains, seasonal flooding, icy winters, and the wear of everyday use, and it’s easy to see why concrete eventually sinks or cracks.
When soil shifts beneath your home, the heavy slabs above lose their stability. You might notice warning signs such as:
If these issues aren’t repaired early, they can grow into bigger problems. Pooling water may seep into your basement, small cracks may widen, and in severe cases, your home’s foundation could be at risk.
No two concrete problems are exactly alike, and that’s why Helitech takes the time to evaluate each property before recommending a repair. We look at the soil conditions, the amount of settlement, and the level of damage to determine the best course of action. Our solutions include:
At Helitech, the goal isn’t just to patch a problem. We focus on delivering long-term solutions that keep your home safe, functional, and looking its best for years to come.
Pricing depends on several factors, such as the size of the slab, how far it has settled, and the type of repair recommended. In many cases, polyurethane foam leveling is more affordable and less disruptive than tearing out and replacing concrete. Helitech always provides a free inspection and a clear, upfront estimate so there are no surprises.
Most projects are wrapped up in a single day. Sidewalks and patios are often ready for use right away, while driveways and garage floors can typically handle vehicle traffic within a few hours.
Polyurethane foam has several advantages:
Concrete issues won’t resolve on their own. Small cracks often spread, uneven slabs can create daily trip hazards, and standing water near your foundation can escalate into major structural problems. Acting early not only protects your home but also saves money in the long run. Helitech makes the process simple, straightforward, and stress-free.
