Concrete Lifting in Ogden, UT
Polyurethane concrete lifting in Ogden for sunken driveways, patios, and sidewalks. Same-day cure, free estimates available.
Serving Ogden and nearby communities.
Concrete lifting raises sunken slabs back to grade using polyurethane foam injected through dime-sized drill holes, no tear-out required. Ogden Foundation Pros uses this polyjacking method on driveways, patios, sidewalks, and garage approaches across the Ogden area.
Benchland soil settling is common under slabs poured decades ago with lighter compaction than current standards. Combine that with runoff from spring snowmelt eroding the base under a slab, and you get the sunken panels and trip hazards we see across Ogden's older neighborhoods.
What's included
What's included with Concrete Lifting
- Typically included — slab assessment, drilling access holes, polyurethane foam injection, elevation monitoring, hole patching.

How our Concrete Lifting process works
Step 1Surface Assessment
Measure how far each section has sunk below grade.
Step 2Drilling Access Holes
Drill dime-sized holes at planned injection points.
Step 3Material Injection
Pump expanding polyurethane foam beneath the slab.
Step 4Elevation Monitoring
Track the lift in real time to hit the target level.
Step 5Hole Patching
Fill drilled holes with matching patch compound.
Step 6Final Inspection
Check the slab for level and stability under load.
Materials
Materials and methods for Concrete Lifting
The lifting material and finish work both matter for a durable result in Utah's freeze-thaw climate.
Polyurethane Foam
Hydrophobic foam that expands beneath the slab, lighter than old mudjacking slurry so it won't cause the same settling over time.
Injection Ports
Placed at calculated points so the foam lifts the slab evenly instead of tilting it.
Patch Compound
Fills the access holes flush so the surface looks finished, not drilled.
Surface Sealant
Protects the patched area from staining and moisture intrusion.
Leveling Gauge
Used on-site to confirm the slab reaches the correct elevation before stopping.
Bonding Agent
Improves how well the patch material grips the surrounding original concrete.

FAQs
Concrete Lifting FAQs
How long does polyurethane lifting last compared to mudjacking?
Polyurethane foam is lighter and more water-resistant than traditional mudjacking slurry, so it's less likely to cause the same repeat settling under the slab over the years.
How much does concrete lifting cost in Ogden?
Cost depends on slab size and how deep the void under it runs. Request a free estimate for your driveway, patio, or walkway.
Is concrete lifting cheaper than replacement?
Generally yes. Lifting an existing slab costs a fraction of demolition and repour, as long as the concrete itself isn't cracked or crumbling.
Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?
Most driveway, patio, and sidewalk lifting doesn't need a permit. Work tied into structural foundation repair sometimes does.
Can I walk or drive on the slab right after?
Polyurethane cures fast, usually within an hour for foot traffic and the same day for vehicles, but we'll confirm timing on-site based on the job.
What causes concrete to sink in the first place?
Soil erosion under the slab from runoff, or settling in soil that wasn't compacted well when originally poured. Lifting fills that void instead of just patching the surface.
