Backyard patios on fill-soil lots settle just like driveways do, except the first sign is usually water pooling near the back door instead of a visible gap. Once a patio slab tilts toward the house instead of away from it, every rainstorm sends water where you don't want it.
Santaquin Foundation Pros lifts patio slabs with polyurethane foam injection, restoring the proper slope away from the foundation instead of just filling the low spot.

Patio Lifting FAQs
How much does patio lifting cost in Santaquin?
Small isolated sections start around $400. A full patio re-level with drainage correction typically runs $900 to $5,000 depending on size.
How long does patio lifting take?
Most patio lifts finish in a few hours, with the surface usable again the same day after a short cure.
Is foam lifting durable enough for a backyard patio?
Polyurethane foam holds up under furniture weight and doesn't absorb water the way older mud-based fill materials can.
Do I need a permit for patio lifting?
Usually not, since you're lifting an existing slab rather than pouring new concrete. Check local setback rules if your patio is close to a property line.
What causes a patio to tilt toward the house?
Uneven settlement under one side of the slab, common on fill-soil lots, shifts the original drainage slope so water runs the wrong direction.
