Concrete Lifting in Brigham City, UT

Polyurethane concrete lifting in Brigham City for sunken slabs, a faster alternative to tear-out and repour, free estimates.

Serving Brigham City and nearby communities.

Sunken driveways, patios, and sidewalks around Brigham City come from two different causes: older slabs settling with age, and newer construction compacting as the soil underneath finishes curing. Polyurethane concrete lifting, also called polyjacking, fixes both without tearing the slab out.

Instead of a full repour, Brigham City Foundation Pros drills dime-sized holes, injects hydrophobic polyurethane foam underneath, and lifts the slab back to level. It's a dedicated service here, not an afterthought bolted onto a concrete crew's driveway work.

What's included

What's Included with Concrete Lifting

Typically included

  • Slab assessment and void measurement
  • Dime-sized access hole drilling at lift points
  • Polyurethane foam injection and elevation monitoring
  • Hole patching to match the surrounding surface

Optional

  • Slope correction at drainage-critical sections
  • Joint resealing after the lift is complete

Customer prep

  • Move vehicles and outdoor items off the slab being lifted
  • Confirm which sections are sinking versus which are just cracked

How it works

How Our Concrete Lifting Process Works

  1. Surface Assessment photo
    Step 1

    Surface Assessment

    Uneven or sunken concrete areas get identified and measured.

  2. Drilling Access Holes photo
    Step 2

    Drilling Access Holes

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

  3. Material Injection photo
    Step 3

    Material Injection

    Expanding foam goes in beneath the slab to raise it evenly.

  4. Elevation Monitoring photo
    Step 4

    Elevation Monitoring

    Lift progress is measured to hit the target level.

  5. Hole Patching photo
    Step 5

    Hole Patching

    Access holes are filled and finished to blend with the surface.

  6. Final Inspection photo
    Step 6

    Final Inspection

    The lifted area is checked for levelness and stability.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Concrete Lifting

  • Polyurethane Foam photo

    Polyurethane Foam

    Expands beneath slabs to lift and stabilize concrete, a reliable fix for both aging and recently-poured Brigham City slabs.

  • Injection Ports photo

    Injection Ports

    Allow controlled placement of lifting material exactly where it's needed under the slab.

  • Patch Compound photo

    Patch Compound

    Fills drilled access holes for a smooth finish.

  • Surface Sealant photo

    Surface Sealant

    Protects the repaired area from moisture and staining.

  • Leveling Gauge photo

    Leveling Gauge

    Measures and confirms slab elevation throughout the lift.

  • Bonding Agent photo

    Bonding Agent

    Improves adhesion between patch material and the existing concrete.

DIY vs pro

DIY vs Hiring a Pro for Concrete Lifting

Self-leveling compound can smooth a small surface dip temporarilyFilling the actual void under a sunken slab requires injection equipment homeowners don't have
Patching surface cracks is reasonable for cosmetic-only damageGetting the lift uneven can crack the slab further, costing more to fix later
—A pro verifies the slab reaches true level, not just "better than before"

FAQs

Concrete Lifting FAQs

What's cheaper, polyurethane foam lifting or ripping out and repouring concrete?

Foam lifting is typically well below the cost of tear-out and repour, since there's no demolition, disposal, or new concrete to pour and cure.

Why is my driveway sinking near the garage every spring?

That transition point often sits over disturbed or looser soil that compacts seasonally, especially after freeze-thaw cycles move moisture through it.

How much does concrete lifting cost in Brigham City?

Cost scales with slab size and how deep the void underneath is. Larger slabs or multiple sunken sections cost more than a single small patch.

Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?

Usually not, since no new structure is added. Confirm with the city if the slab is near a public sidewalk or right-of-way.

How long does concrete lifting take?

Most slabs are lifted and usable the same day since the foam cures fast.

Is foam lifting as durable as a full replacement?

When the underlying soil issue is addressed. The foam itself doesn't break down or wash out over time.
