A sunken driveway, patio, or sidewalk slab isn't usually a sign your foundation is in trouble. It's a sign the soil under that specific slab has settled or washed out. Polyjacking fixes it by injecting polyurethane foam underneath the slab to lift it back to level, without the cost or downtime of tearing out and replacing concrete.

New-construction lots near Spring Lake sit on fill soil that settles unevenly within the first few years, and that's where we see the most sunken-slab calls. Santaquin Foundation Pros uses polyurethane concrete lifting as the go-to method because it's faster, cheaper, and doesn't add the dead weight that traditional mudjacking does.

What's included

What's included with Concrete Lifting

Typically included: surface assessment, dime-sized access hole drilling, polyurethane foam injection, elevation monitoring during the lift, and hole patching. Optional: joint sealant refresh on surrounding slabs, surface sealant application after the lift. Customer prep: clear the slab area of furniture, planters, or parked vehicles before the crew arrives.

How it works

How our Concrete Lifting process works

  1. Surface Assessment photo
    Step 1

    Surface Assessment

    Uneven or sunken concrete areas are identified and measured.

  2. Drilling Access Holes photo
    Step 2

    Drilling Access Holes

    Small holes are drilled into the concrete to allow material injection.

  3. Material Injection photo
    Step 3

    Material Injection

    Expanding foam is injected beneath the slab to raise it evenly.

  4. Elevation Monitoring photo
    Step 4

    Elevation Monitoring

    Lift progress is measured to achieve the desired level.

  5. Hole Patching photo
    Step 5

    Hole Patching

    Access holes are filled and finished to match the surrounding surface.

  6. Final Inspection photo
    Step 6

    Final Inspection

    The lifted area is reviewed for levelness and stability.

Materials

Materials and methods for Concrete Lifting

  • Polyurethane Foam photo

    Polyurethane Foam

    Expands beneath slabs to lift and stabilize concrete, resists water absorption unlike traditional mud mixtures during Utah's freeze-thaw cycles.

  • Injection Ports photo

    Injection Ports

    Allow controlled placement of lifting material under the slab for an even lift.

  • Patch Compound photo

    Patch Compound

    Fills drilled access holes for a smooth finish that blends with the existing surface.

  • Surface Sealant photo

    Surface Sealant

    Protects the repaired area from moisture and staining after the lift.

  • Leveling Gauge photo

    Leveling Gauge

    Used to measure and confirm slab elevation during the injection process.

  • Bonding Agent photo

    Bonding Agent

    Improves adhesion between new patch material and existing concrete.

Cost

What does a Concrete Lifting cost in Santaquin?

Cost depends on slab size and how much the area has settled, not a flat per-job price.

Project typeTypical rangeWhat’s included
Small sidewalk panel$300–$700,single panel lift and patch.
Standard driveway section$1,000–$3,000,typical settled area near a garage transition.
Full driveway or large patio$3,000–$7,000,broader lift across multiple slab sections.

These are typical local ballparks — final cost depends on scope, materials, and site conditions. A free estimate gives you an accurate, itemized number for your home.

FAQs

Concrete Lifting FAQs

How much does concrete lifting cost in Santaquin?

Small panel lifts start around $300. Larger driveway or patio sections typically run $1,000 to $7,000 depending on size and settlement depth.

How long does polyurethane concrete lifting take compared to replacing a slab?

Most polyjacking jobs finish within a few hours and are walkable the same day. Full replacement involves demolition, forming, pouring, and days of cure time before use.

Is foam lifting as durable as mudjacking for a sinking sidewalk?

Polyurethane foam is lighter and doesn't absorb water the way traditional mud mixtures can, which holds up better through freeze-thaw cycles over time.

Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?

Typically no, since polyjacking lifts existing concrete without pouring new material. Sidewalk panels near public right-of-way can be an exception.

What affects concrete lifting pricing?

Slab size, how much it has settled, and how many access points are needed to achieve an even lift.
