Concrete leveling in Sartell
Leveling and repair for Sartell homes on both sides of the Mississippi, just north of St. Cloud.
Sartell straddles the Mississippi River immediately north of St. Cloud and lies in both Benton and Stearns counties. It was incorporated as a village in 1907, the same year its paper mill and dam were finished, and it has grown from 791 people in 1960 to 19,351 at the 2020 census, making it the largest suburb of St. Cloud.
Lots of young concrete
Because so much of Sartell was built in recent decades, the problems contractors see most often are the ones that show up in the first years after construction: garage aprons that drop as backfill settles, front stoops that sink below the threshold, and patios that start tilting toward the house.
Check your builder's warranty
If your home is only a few years old, read your builder's warranty before paying for a repair. Some early settling may be covered.
Permits
Sartell is its own city, so St. Cloud's right-of-way permit rules don't apply. For work on a public sidewalk or driveway approach, ask the City of Sartell what's required.
Common Sartell jobs

Common questions
Do you cover Sartell?
Yes, on both sides of the river. Call with your address and we'll connect you with a contractor that serves Sartell.
Our house is only a few years old and the apron already sank. Why?
Usually the backfill around the foundation and garage settled after the apron was poured. Check your builder's warranty first, then have a contractor look at leveling it.
