Uneven sidewalk panels are usually a freeze-thaw problem, not a sign the concrete is failing. Lindon Foundation Pros lifts low panels back level with polyurethane foam injection, matching them to the adjacent sections and removing the trip edge without replacing the slab. Along the Wasatch Front, repeated winter heaving shifts individual panels at different rates, which is why one panel sinks while the one next to it stays put.
The repair is targeted and fast. We drill small holes into the low panel, inject foam until it rises to match its neighbor, then patch the holes so the walkway stays smooth and safe.

How Our Sidewalk Lifting Process Works
Step 1Sidewalk Inspection
Trip hazards and uneven slabs are identified along the walkway.
Step 2Access Hole Drilling
Small entry points are drilled into the affected slab sections.
Step 3Foam Injection
Material is injected to raise the sidewalk to a safe level.
Step 4Height Matching
Adjacent slabs are aligned to eliminate tripping hazards.
Step 5Hole Patching
Access points are sealed to restore a smooth surface.
Step 6Final Safety Check
The sidewalk is reviewed to confirm proper alignment and safety.
Materials
Materials and Methods for Sidewalk Lifting
Freeze-thaw cycles shift panels unevenly, one to the next. Matching height to the neighbor is the real goal. Not just lifting the slab.
Polyurethane Foam
Raises sidewalk slabs quickly with minimal curing time, letting foot traffic resume the same day.
Patch Mix
Fills access holes to restore a flush surface finish.
Joint Sealant
Reseals joints between slabs after lifting is complete to limit future water entry.
Surface Protectant
Helps guard repaired areas from weather exposure through winter months.
Alignment Gauge
Used to measure slab height differences during the process for an exact match.
Bonding Primer
Improves patch material adhesion to original concrete.

FAQs
Sidewalk Lifting FAQs
How much does sidewalk lifting cost in Lindon?
Cost is typically priced per panel, with smaller single-panel lifts on the lower end and multi-panel walkways costing more.
How long does sidewalk lifting take?
Most jobs are finished in under an hour per panel, with the walkway usable again the same day.
Will the lifted panel match the others?
We measure against adjacent panels during the lift to get a flush, consistent surface.
Is foam injection enough or does the whole panel need replacing?
Foam lifting solves the problem without replacement, unless the panel itself is cracked or crumbling.
Can I fix an uneven sidewalk panel myself?
It's possible to patch the surface, but without controlled lifting equipment the underlying void stays unfilled and the panel usually settles again.
Do I need a permit for sidewalk lifting?
Private walkway panels usually don't need one, but public right-of-way sidewalks near the street often do. Confirm with your local building department.
