Concrete lifting and leveling in Utah County

Sunken driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors, pool decks, and steps. We connect homeowners with local pros who lift a sound slab back into place with mudjacking or polyurethane foam.

Free quotes. No tear-out unless the concrete is actually finished.

A sound slab can drop when the soil under it washes out or compresses. Lifting fills that void and raises the concrete you already have. It is not a new pour.

Slabs homeowners ask about

Lifting is for concrete that is still in one piece and has lost support. It raises that slab. It does not pour a new one.

  • Driveways

    Panels that dropped at the garage or along a joint, including an apron that scrapes the door or sends water back toward the house.

  • Sidewalks

    A lip at a joint that trips people. Lifting works when the square is still solid. A shattered square usually needs to be replaced.

  • Patios

    Corners that sank, and pitches that hold water against the house or the fence after the sprinklers run.

  • Garage floors

    Interior slabs that settled, including a lip at the threshold. Foam is often discussed here because the holes are small and you can often park the same day.

  • Pool decks

    Decks that dropped at the coping or slope the wrong way. Common where the yard has a pool, including a lot of Saratoga Springs.

  • Steps

    Steps that pulled away from a porch and rock when you use them. If they have broken into loose pieces, they usually need to be rebuilt, not lifted.

How this works

You are not hiring this website

Utah County Concrete Lifting is a way to reach a local concrete lifting pro. We do not pump slabs, and we do not pretend to be the crew.

  1. Tell us about the slab

    City, what kind of concrete, and what it is doing. Call or use the form. A photo can wait until someone follows up.

  2. We pass it to a local pro

    Your request goes to a concrete lifting professional who works in Utah County and can look at the job.

  3. They quote it. You decide.

    The look and the price are free. You do not have to hire anyone. Getting another bid is reasonable.

Mudjacking versus polyurethane foam

Same idea, different material. The person who sees the slab should pick. A longer explanation and the price ranges are on the concrete lifting cost guide.

Mudjacking

A cement slurry pumped under the slab through holes about 1.5–2 inches wide. Also called slabjacking.

  • Usually the lower cost
  • Heavier, which matters on soft or very wet soil
  • Often enough for a sound driveway panel
  • Ask when you can drive on it

Polyurethane foam

Expanding foam through smaller holes, often about 5/8 inch. Also called polyjacking or foam lifting.

  • Usually costs more
  • Much lighter than slurry
  • Often chosen for garage floors and wet bases
  • Usually ready for a car the same day

What lifting tends to cost here

These are typical ranges homeowners in Utah County see. A sidewalk panel is a different invoice from a whole driveway, and a one-panel trip still includes a trip charge, so it will not price out at the low end of the per-foot range.

Typical Utah County ranges. Not a bid.
Job Typical range
Per square foot about $3–$8
Sidewalk panel $300–$600
Patio $500–$1,500
Average residential job about $800–$1,250
Driveway $1,000–$3,000

Prices vary with the slab, access, how far it has sunk, and whether the job uses mudjacking or polyurethane foam. These are typical Utah County ranges, not a bid. Quotes are free.

When lifting is the wrong tool

  • The surface is scaled, pitted, or falling apart. Lifting will not make it look new.
  • A tree root is still tenting a sidewalk square. Pumping under it will not stop the root.
  • Water is still running under the slab. Raise it, and also move the water, or it can sink again.
  • The panel is in pieces. Those pieces usually need to be broken out and poured back.

Questions homeowners ask

What is concrete lifting?

Concrete lifting raises a sunken slab back toward its original level by pumping material underneath it. The concrete stays in place. You are not tearing it out and pouring a new one. The same work is called mudjacking or slabjacking when the material is a cement slurry, and polyjacking or foam lifting when it is polyurethane foam.

How is lifting different from replacing the concrete?

Replacement breaks out the old slab, hauls it away, and pours new concrete. It costs more, and the new pour has to cure before you park on it. Replacement is the right call when the concrete is crumbling, badly scaled, or broken into pieces that will not lift as one unit. Lifting is for slabs that are still sound but have lost the soil underneath. A free quote should tell you which situation you are looking at.

What is the difference between mudjacking and polyurethane foam?

Mudjacking pumps a cement slurry through holes about an inch and a half to two inches wide. Polyurethane foam, also called polyjacking, goes through smaller holes and expands under the slab. Slurry usually costs less and weighs more. Foam weighs much less, cures in minutes, and is often used where extra weight is a bad idea, such as wet ground or an interior garage floor. The person quoting the job picks the method after seeing the slab.

How much does concrete lifting cost in Utah County?

Typical ranges in Utah County are about $3–$8 per square foot. A sidewalk panel is often $300–$600, a patio $500–$1,500, and a driveway $1,000–$3,000. An ordinary residential job often lands around about $800–$1,250. Those are ranges, not a bid. Access, how far the slab has dropped, and mud versus foam all change the price. Quotes are free.

How long does a typical job take?

Many residential lifts are finished in a few hours. Foam is usually ready for a car the same day. Mudjacking is often ready for foot traffic the same day, and the crew will tell you when to drive on it. That is a typical pace, not a promise for every yard.

Will the drill holes show?

There will be patches where the holes were drilled. Mudjacking holes are larger than foam holes. Patches are filled and left flush. On a broom-finished driveway they usually blend in from a few feet away. On a smooth or stamped patio they are easier to spot. Lifting does not make old, pitted concrete look new.

Which cities does this cover?

This site is for Utah County, with pages for Lehi, Saratoga Springs, American Fork, Orem, and Provo. If the slab is in another Utah County town, such as Pleasant Grove, Lindon, Vineyard, Eagle Mountain, Springville, or Spanish Fork, choose Other on the quote form and name the city.

Is Utah County Concrete Lifting the contractor?

No. Utah County Concrete Lifting connects homeowners with local concrete lifting professionals. We are not the crew that pumps the slab. When you send a quote request or call, the details go to a local pro who can look at the job and give you a price. You do not have to hire them.

Can a trip-hazard sidewalk be lifted instead of replaced?

Often, yes, if the panel is still one solid piece and has simply settled at a joint. A lip of even a fraction of an inch is enough to trip someone. Lifting will not fix a shattered panel, and it will not stop a tree root that is still growing under the square. On a public sidewalk, ask whether the city or the property owner is responsible before you pay for the repair. That rule is not the same in every Utah County city.

More on methods and price is in the cost guide.
