Restore Don’t Replace: Save Time & Money on Industrial Concrete Repairs in Michigan

"Michigan is home to over 14,000 manufacturing facilities"

When it comes to maintaining the concrete floors in your industrial facility, many business owners assume replacement is the only option. But full concrete tear-outs are expensive, time-consuming, and disruptive to operations.

The good news? Restoration is faster, more affordable, and just as effective—especially when done by a professional team like Great Lakes Leveling.

The Cost of Replacement vs. Restoration

Replacing industrial concrete can cost $8 to $15 per square foot or more, depending on thickness, location, and prep work. Add in downtime, permits, and disposal fees, and you’re looking at tens of thousands—if not hundreds of thousands—of dollars.

In contrast, restoring concrete surfaces with leveling, sealing, and coating typically costs 40–60% less and can often be completed in a single day with minimal interruption.

Fast Turnaround = Less Downtime

"When the costs add up that quick, speed matters!"

Downtime in an industrial setting equals lost revenue. In Michigan alone, the average manufacturing facility can lose $22,000 per hour during unplanned shutdowns. When the costs add up that quick, speed matters!

Our fast-setting polyurethane foam lifts sunken slabs and fills voids within minutes, not days. We also offer fast setting crack & joint sealing, protective coatings, and high-durability painting—so you can get back to work fast.

Michigan’s Industrial Footprint

Michigan is home to over 14,000 manufacturing facilities and nearly 1.1 billion square feet of industrial space. That’s a massive amount of concrete under stress from heavy equipment, temperature changes, and vibration.

Concrete settlement, cracking, and joint failure are common—but that doesn’t mean full replacement is necessary.
