Buy an A-1 Concrete Leveling Franchise

A-1 Concrete Leveling is a concrete repair and maintenance franchise that raises and restores sunken concrete as a lower-cost alternative to full slab replacement. The company traces its roots to 1982, when founder Grover Miller developed a self-contained concrete leveling truck and system, and has franchised the model since the early 1990s.

Marketed as a “Concrete CARE Company,” A-1 covers four core services: concrete leveling, caulking, cleaning, and sealing. Crews lift and stabilize sinking sidewalks, driveways, patios, pool decks, and foundations for both residential and commercial customers, with most jobs finished in a few hours. Work is delivered from mobile, equipment-based trucks rather than a retail premises, and franchisees operate protected territories.

Today A-1 is a nationwide network of 50+ locally owned and operated franchises and one of the larger concrete leveling systems in the United States, supported from a corporate operation in Louisville, Kentucky. The brand’s appeal rests on a niche, repair-led service with low overhead, clear customer cost savings, and steady demand from aging concrete and infrastructure.

Why buy an A-1 Concrete Leveling Franchise?

Buying an A-1 Concrete Leveling franchise gives access to an established concrete-repair niche where demand is driven by aging concrete rather than discretionary spending, a category that has historically held up well through economic cycles, including the 2008 downturn. The service solves a clear customer problem: leveling sunken slabs costs far less than tearing out and replacing them.

The mobile, truck-based model keeps overhead low, with no retail lease or storefront to maintain, and protected territories give owners room to build local market share. A-1’s central website generates qualified leads for franchisees, and the four-service mix of leveling, caulking, cleaning, and sealing creates multiple ways to grow ticket value and earn repeat and referral work.

A-1 Concrete Leveling – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Franchisees train through Grover University, A-1's structured program of on-demand video lessons and step-by-step guides, backed by online and in-person training for the owner and their team. Initial training runs about one week at the corporate location in Louisville, Kentucky, followed by roughly two weeks on-site, with ongoing business coaching plus goal-setting and strategy sessions. Owners also receive qualified leads from the national website, access to operating data, and ongoing marketing support. Resale buyers should confirm with A-1 what onboarding and Grover University access transfers to incoming owners and existing staff.

  2. Ideal Owner

    A-1 suits hands-on, locally focused operators comfortable combining field work with sales and team leadership. No concrete or construction background is required; the franchisor trains owners in the system, so drive, a customer-service instinct, and willingness to quote jobs and close estimates matter more than trade experience. The model rewards owners who can recruit and manage small crews, coordinate scheduling, market consistently in their territory, and stay disciplined with data and operating systems. It fits owner-operators who want a practical, service-based business rather than a desk-bound role.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    A-1 Concrete Leveling is one of the larger concrete leveling networks in the United States, with 50+ locally owned franchises built up since the early 1990s and a service system dating to 1982. The brand is listed in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 directory and is recognized within the industry for helping pioneer self-contained, truck-based concrete leveling. Much of its reputation is local, earned through customer reviews and word-of-mouth referrals. For resale buyers, brand-level standing should be weighed alongside the specific unit's local reviews, referral sources, and community visibility.

  4. Industry / Market

    Concrete leveling sits within the broader US concrete repair and restoration sector, where demand is fueled by aging housing stock and infrastructure. Industry trackers value the North American concrete repair market at roughly $590 million in 2025, projected to approach $900 million by 2033 as owners increasingly choose repair over costly replacement. Demand is largely non-discretionary, since sinking, cracked, or uneven concrete is a safety and property-value issue, which lends the category resilience across economic cycles. For resale buyers, local housing age, climate, and soil conditions shape how much repair work a territory generates.
