Bench-grade soil settling doesn't only affect foundations. It shows up under driveways, patios, and sidewalks too, usually as a sunken slab or a tripping edge where one panel sits lower than its neighbor. That's a separate issue from foundation wall movement, and it has its own fix.
Bluffdale Foundation Pros uses polyjacking, not mudjacking, for this work. Polyurethane foam is lighter, cures within hours instead of days, and doesn't add the extra weight to already-soft soil that older mudjacking methods did.
What's included
What's Included
- Slab assessment — , measuring how far sunken sections have dropped
- Dime-sized drill holes — at strategic points on the slab
- Polyurethane foam injection — beneath the slab to lift it level
- Hole patching — to blend with the existing surface
- Optional — joint sealing on panels adjacent to the lifted section
- Customer prep — move vehicles or patio furniture off the work area before the crew arrives

How Our Concrete Lifting Process Works
Step 1Surface Assessment
Uneven or sunken concrete areas are identified and measured.
Step 2Drilling Access Holes
Small holes are drilled into the concrete to allow material injection.
Step 3Material Injection
Expanding foam is injected beneath the slab to raise it evenly.
Step 4Elevation Monitoring
Lift progress is measured to achieve the desired level.
Step 5Hole Patching
Access holes are filled and finished to match the surrounding surface.
Step 6Final Inspection
The lifted area is reviewed for levelness and stability.
Materials
Materials and Methods for Concrete Lifting
Polyurethane Foam
Expands beneath slabs to lift and stabilize concrete surfaces, built for Draper's shifting bench soil.
Injection Ports
Allow controlled placement of lifting material under the slab for an even lift.
Patch Compound
Fills drilled access holes for a smooth finish on driveways and walkways.
Surface Sealant
Protects the repaired area from moisture and staining through winter months.
Leveling Gauge
Used to measure and confirm slab elevation during lifting for an accurate result.
Bonding Agent
Improves adhesion between new patch material and existing concrete over time.

Concrete Lifting FAQs
What's the difference between polyjacking and mudjacking, and is mudjacking still used?
Polyjacking injects lightweight polyurethane foam that expands and cures within hours. Mudjacking uses a heavier cement-based slurry that takes longer to cure and adds more weight to the soil underneath. Mudjacking has mostly fallen out of favor here because of that added load and slower timeline.
Is DIY concrete lifting possible?
Not really. Foam injection requires specific equipment and controlled pressure to lift a slab evenly without cracking it further. A DIY kit can't replicate that level of control.
How much does concrete lifting cost compared to slab replacement?
Polyjacking generally costs a fraction of full slab tear-out and replacement, since there's no demolition or new concrete pour involved.
How long before I can use the surface after lifting?
Most polyjacked surfaces are walkable within an hour and drivable (for driveways) within a few hours, much faster than a poured replacement would allow.
Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?
Most polyjacking on an existing slab doesn't need one. A full slab replacement usually does.
