FAQs ENG

  • How do I know if my floor needs lifting or stabilization?

    Look for uneven or sloping floors, cracks in slabs or walls, gaps near skirting, sticking doors or windows, or misaligned machinery/tiles. These are common signs of floor settlement. If you notice sinking or movement, we offer a free inspection to determine the cause and recommended geopolymers solution.

  • What types of problems can GEOLIFT fix?

    Sinking or uneven floors, voids under slabs, foundation settlement, cracking slabs, industrial floor dips, soil wash-out, subsidence beneath roads, bridges or docks, and more.

  • How does the GEOLIFT technology work?

    We use a high-performance, expanding geopolymer resin engineered for soil stabilization. Once injected and cured, it becomes inert, non-toxic, waterproof and environmentally stable. Small injection points are drilled through the slab, allowing the geopolymer to be pumped beneath the surface, where it expands, fills voids, compacts the soil and gently lifts the structure back to level. The work is fast, clean and controlled with high-precision monitoring, delivering millimetre-accurate results without excavation or demolition.

  • What is geopolymer material and how safe is it?

    Geopolymer is a safe, non-toxic expanding resin used to stabilize soil and lift floors. It cures quickly, is waterproof and inert, and does not release chemicals — making it suitable for homes, warehouses and industrial sites.

  • Why choose GEOLIFT instead of traditional repair — what are the key advantages?

    Traditional repairs often require breaking and replacing concrete, causing downtime, noise, dust and high material waste. Geolift stabilizes soil and lifts floors without demolition, meaning work is completed in 1–2 days, areas remain usable much sooner and businesses avoid costly shutdowns. The geopolymer resin fills voids, strengthens the foundation and delivers millimetre-accurate leveling with minimal disruption. It’s a cleaner, faster and more economical alternative that extends the lifespan of existing structures—sustainable, precise and built for long-term performance.

  • What buildings, floors and structures can you stabilize?

    We stabilize and lift floors in private homes, industrial buildings, warehouses, logistics centers, supermarkets, commercial spaces, offices, production facilities, infrastructure structures such as roads, bridges, airport slabs and port terminals.

  • How much does the service cost and what affects the price?

    The cost of floor lifting and soil stabilization depends on several site-specific factors that require inspection and evaluation. These include soil condition, depth and size of the settlement area, existing pipeline condition, geological composition of the subsoil, foundation type, building age, construction quality and any structural defects. Each project is unique, so we prepare pricing individually after assessing the site. As a rule of thumb, geopolymer repair is typically 30–60% more economical than traditional demolition and reconstruction methods, making it a cost-efficient alternative with far less disruption.

  • How do I find out the cost of my project?

    We can provide an initial estimate based on floor area, photos and basic project details. After a site visit and soil evaluation, our engineer prepares a detailed quote for the required geopolymer materials and labour.

  • Do you offer instalment or financing options for projects?

    Yes. You can pay in instalments — we work with financing partners who help secure the best available bank offer for your project.

  • Do you offer a warranty, and how long will the repair last?

    Yes — GEOLIFT provides strong warranty protection. Our geopolymer material is covered for 25 years, and our workmanship is guaranteed for 5 years, giving long-term peace of mind. Because the resin is durable, water-resistant and non-degrading, the stabilized floor and soil are expected to remain stable for decades. All warranty terms are clearly outlined in the contract, and a sample document is available on request.

  • How quickly can the project be completed?

    Most projects are completed within 1–2 days after approval. In many cases, the floor can be used again within minutes after injection, allowing work or daily activities to continue with minimal disruption.

  • Do I need to prepare anything before you arrive?

    In most cases, no special preparation is required. We work cleanly and efficiently, allowing normal activities to continue with minimal disruption — whether in homes, warehouses or commercial spaces. Only access to the injection points is needed, and heavy machinery or racking can often remain in place. If any specific clearing is necessary, we’ll let you know in advance.

  • Can the building remain in use during the repair, is geopolymer injection safe indoors?

    Yes. In most cases, the building can stay operational while we work — businesses often continue production, and staff or customers can stay on-site. The process is clean, quiet and minimally disruptive. The geopolymer material is inert, non-toxic and safe for indoor environments, making it suitable for homes, warehouses and commercial facilities.

  • How much can you lift a floor and how accurate is the lifting?

    Floors can typically be raised up to 20 cm, depending on conditions. Micro-lifting adjustments of just a few millimetres are also possible. The process allows for 1–2 mm precision, monitored in real time using laser levelling equipment.

  • How long does the geopolymer take to cure, and when can the area be used again?

    The geopolymer cures fast — typically within 15–20 minutes, meaning floors can be used almost immediately after lifting. Once cured, the material remains dimensionally stable and does not shrink, dissolve or degrade, ensuring long-term performance.

  • Will the geopolymer expand, shrink, or degrade over time?

    No. Once cured, the geopolymer remains dimensionally stable and does not expand, shrink, dissolve or degrade over time. It is lightweight, waterproof, frost-resistant and chemically inert, ensuring long-term durability even in demanding environments. The material maintains its form and strength for decades, providing a stable and permanent solution without adding significant load to the structure.

  • Will the process involve loud and noisy construction work?

    No. GEOLIFT requires only small injection holes — no demolition, no breaking out slabs and no heavy construction activity. Once the repair is complete, these openings are filled and left almost unnoticeable. Drilling produces only light, short-term noise and minimal dust, and there is no significant vibration. The process is clean, quiet and non-intrusive — your home or facility won’t resemble a construction site, and in most cases, the area can remain in use throughout the work.

  • Is the process safe for pipes, cables and other underground utilities?

    Yes. Geopolymer resin does not invade pipes or cables — it flows only into voids and weak soil zones, not into intact utilities. Before work begins, we review underground layouts and plan injection points to ensure safe operation. With controlled pressure and precise monitoring, the process is non-invasive and safe for plumbing, electrical lines and other buried services.

  • Is geopolymer environmentally friendly, and how does GEOLIFT reduce CO₂ and waste?

    Yes. Geopolymer injection is an environmentally friendly alternative to concrete replacement. Because we strengthen the soil and restore the existing slab instead of removing and rebuilding it, the process generates up to 90% less construction waste and avoids the CO₂ emissions associated with demolition, transport and new concrete production. There is no excavation, heavy machinery or landfill disposal — significantly lowering environmental impact while extending the life of the structure.

  • What if the floor keeps sinking after repair?

    We provide warranty protection — 50 years on materials and 5 years on workmanship. If settlement progresses due to previously unknown soil conditions, we will investigate and address the issue under warranty terms.

  • Where do you operate and do you take projects internationally?

    Our floor lifting and soil stabilization services are available in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland, with the ability to travel to projects anywhere in Europe. We work with private homes, commercial buildings and industrial sites.
