A sunken driveway slab near the garage apron is usually a sign that the base material underneath has washed out or settled, not that the concrete itself has failed. Lindon Foundation Pros fixes this with polyurethane foam injection through dime-sized drill holes, lifting the slab back to grade without tearing out and repouring concrete. Freeze-thaw cycling along the Wasatch Front speeds up this kind of settling, especially on driveways that slope toward the garage instead of away from it.
Most driveway lifts are a same-day job. We identify the low section, drill a few small access points, pump foam underneath until the slab rises and matches the adjoining panels, then patch the holes so the surface looks consistent.
What's included
What's Included With Driveway Lifting
Typically included: slab inspection and void mapping, drilling and foam injection, elevation checks during the lift, hole patching and surface cleanup.
Optional: joint resealing between panels, slope correction to redirect water away from the garage.
Customer prep: move vehicles off the driveway and clear any items stored along the edge before the crew arrives.

How Our Driveway Lifting Process Works
Step 1Driveway Inspection
Sunken or sloped sections are identified for correction.
Step 2Access Drilling
Small holes are drilled at strategic points along the driveway.
Step 3Foam Injection
Expanding foam is pumped beneath the slab to raise it evenly.
Step 4Slope Correction
The surface is adjusted to restore proper drainage direction.
Step 5Hole Sealing
Drilled holes are patched to blend with the existing surface.
Step 6Surface Review
The driveway is inspected for even, stable elevation.
Materials
Materials and Methods for Driveway Lifting
Lindon driveways see repeated freeze-thaw movement each winter, so we lean on lightweight, fast-curing materials that won't add extra load to already-compromised base soil.
Polyurethane Foam
Provides lightweight lift without adding excess weight to the soil, a real advantage over mudjacking slurry on marginal base material.
Concrete Patch Mix
Used to seal access holes after injection work so the surface reads clean.
Joint Sealant
Reseals expansion joints disturbed during the lifting process to keep water out of the joint line.
Surface Sealer
Protects the driveway from moisture and future cracking through freeze-thaw seasons.
Leveling Equipment
Ensures accurate measurement during the lifting procedure so panels match height.
Bonding Primer
Improves patch adhesion to the original concrete surface for a durable repair.

FAQs
Driveway Lifting FAQs
How much does driveway lifting cost in Lindon?
Most single-panel lifts run a few hundred to just over a thousand dollars depending on slab size and how much foam is needed to fill the void underneath.
How long does a driveway lift take?
A typical driveway lift is a same-day job, usually a few hours from drilling to patch.
Will the repaired spots be visible?
Patched holes are smoothed and blended, though slight color variation is common with older concrete until it weathers to match.
Is polyurethane foam strong enough for a driveway?
It's engineered to support vehicle weight once cured, and it adds less load to soft soil than traditional mudjacking slurry.
Can I DIY a sunken driveway fix?
Store-bought patch products cover the surface but don't fill the void underneath, so the slab usually settles again within a season or two.
Do I need a permit for driveway lifting?
Foam lifting of an existing slab typically doesn't require a permit, but confirm with Utah County if you're also changing the driveway's footprint.
