Concrete Lifting in North Salt Lake, UT

Polyurethane concrete lifting in North Salt Lake, UT raises sunken slabs without tear-out. Dime-sized holes, same-day results, free estimates.

Serving North Salt Lake and nearby communities.

Freeze-thaw cycling under slabs along the Wasatch Front creates voids that sink driveways, patios, and sidewalks over time, and once that void forms the slab has nowhere to go but down. North Salt Lake Foundation Pros raises sunken concrete with polyurethane foam injection instead of tearing it out and repouring.

This is the polyjacking method, not old-style mudjacking slurry: dime-sized holes, hydrophobic foam that expands beneath the slab, and a drivable or walkable surface the same day. It covers driveways, patios, and sidewalks under one approach, with each surface getting its own panel-by-panel assessment.

What's included

What's Included

Typically included: slab assessment, access hole drilling, foam injection and lift, hole patching to match the surface. Optional: joint resealing, slope correction for drainage. Customer prep: clear the slab area of furniture, vehicles, or planters before the crew arrives.

How it works

How Our Concrete Lifting Process Works

  1. Surface Assessment photo
    Step 1

    Surface Assessment

    Sunken or sloped sections are measured to see how much lift each panel needs.

  2. Drilling Access Holes photo
    Step 2

    Drilling Access Holes

    Small holes go into the concrete to reach the void beneath without breaking up the slab.

  3. Material Injection photo
    Step 3

    Material Injection

    Expanding foam is pumped under the slab and lifts it evenly as it cures.

  4. Elevation Monitoring photo
    Step 4

    Elevation Monitoring

    Lift height is checked throughout so the slab stops at the right level, not past it.

  5. Hole Patching photo
    Step 5

    Hole Patching

    Drilled holes are filled and finished to blend with the surrounding concrete.

  6. Final Inspection photo
    Step 6

    Final Inspection

    The lifted area gets a level check and visual review before the crew leaves.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Concrete Lifting

Slab voids here usually trace back to winter freeze-thaw movement under the base material, so the lift has to fill that space completely, not just float the slab on top of it.

  • Polyurethane Foam photo

    Polyurethane Foam

    Expands beneath the slab within minutes, filling the void and lifting the concrete without adding the weight that caused the original settling.

  • Injection Ports photo

    Injection Ports

    Set at precise points across the slab so foam reaches every low section instead of just the one access hole.

  • Patch Compound photo

    Patch Compound

    Fills the dime-sized drill holes flush with the surface once the lift is confirmed level.

  • Surface Sealant photo

    Surface Sealant

    Applied over patched areas to block moisture from re-entering the same void path.

  • Leveling Gauge photo

    Leveling Gauge

    Tracks slab elevation in real time during injection so lift height stops exactly where it should.

  • Bonding Agent photo

    Bonding Agent

    Helps the patch material grip the original concrete so repaired spots don't chip out later.

FAQs

Concrete Lifting FAQs

How long does polyurethane concrete lifting last compared to mudjacking?

Polyurethane foam is lighter and hydrophobic, so it doesn't break down or wash out the way mudjacking slurry can over time. It tends to hold its lift longer, especially through repeated freeze-thaw seasons.

What's the difference between piering and slabjacking?

Piering supports structural foundations by transferring building weight to stable soil. Slabjacking (or polyjacking) lifts non-structural slabs like driveways and patios by filling the void underneath, different problems, different fixes.

Does concrete lifting work on all slabs?

Most slabs with a void underneath qualify, but a slab with extensive cracking or a broken structural edge may need replacement instead.

How much does concrete lifting cost?

Cost runs by square footage and how much lift each panel needs. It typically comes in well under the cost of tearing out and repouring the same area.

Can I walk or drive on it right away?

Most surfaces are usable within hours once the foam cures, though exact timing depends on surface temperature and foam volume used.
