Uneven Steps? Fix Them Without Replacing Them
If your concrete steps are uneven, sinking, or separating, it’s more than just a small issue—it’s a serious safety risk.
All it takes is one bad step for someone to trip or fall.
Over time, the problem only gets worse. Steps shift, gaps widen, and the surface becomes more unstable.
But here’s the good news:
You don’t have to replace your steps to fix them.
At Granite City Concrete Raising, we lift and level concrete steps using polyurethane foam—restoring them quickly without tearing anything out.
Concrete got you trippin? Get even with it!!
Why Concrete Steps Sink in Minnesota
Steps are especially prone to settling because they’re built in sections and often sit on different soil conditions.
In the St. Cloud area, changing weather and soil movement make the problem even worse.
Here’s what causes it:
- Soil washout from rain or poor drainage
- Freeze and thaw cycles shifting the ground
- Poor compaction under the steps
- Voids forming beneath the concrete
- Natural settling over time
When the support underneath weakens, your steps begin to shift and become uneven.
If your steps are uneven, there’s a good chance other areas around your home are affected too—like your walkways and sidewalks or patio. If the issue is coming from underneath, our void filling service can help stabilize the soil and prevent further settling.

Signs Your Steps Need Leveling
Not sure if your steps can be lifted?
Look for these signs:
- One step is higher or lower than the others
- Gaps forming between steps or nearby concrete
- Steps pulling away from your porch or entryway
- Cracks forming along edges or joints
- Wobbling or unstable feeling when walking
- Visible sinking on one side
If you notice any of these, it’s best to fix it early before it becomes a bigger safety concern.
Our Fix: Lift Your Steps with Polyurethane Foam
We don’t replace your steps—we fix what’s underneath them.
Our concrete lifting process uses high-density polyurethane foam to raise and stabilize your steps from below.
1. Drill
We drill small, discreet holes to access the area beneath the steps.
2. Lift
We inject expanding foam to fill voids and carefully lift each section back into place.
3. Patch
We patch the holes cleanly, leaving your steps solid, level, and ready to use.
That’s it—no demo, no heavy equipment, and no long wait times.
Most jobs are completed quickly, and your concrete is ready to use immediately after we’re done.
Why Homeowners Choose Steps Leveling
- Costs far less than replacing steps
- Improves safety by removing trip hazards
- Fast, clean process with minimal disruption
- Stabilizes the base to prevent future movement
- Restores a clean, even look to your entryway
- Avoids tearing out surrounding concrete
