Why is your driveway sinking right near the garage? That's the spot where backfill soil settles hardest after construction, and it's the single most common driveway call Pleasant Grove Foundation Pros gets. Polyjacking lifts the panel back to grade without tearing out the driveway.
Bench-lot driveways settle unevenly because the soil compaction behind the garage apron was never as uniform as the rest of the slab. Polyurethane foam injected through dime-sized holes fills that void and lifts the panel evenly, curing fast enough that the driveway's back in use the same day, without the added weight of older mudjacking slurry.

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
Polyurethane Foam
Lifts the slab without adding the weight load that mudjacking slurry puts back on already-settled soil.
Concrete Patch Mix
Seals access holes so the repair blends into the original driveway surface.
Joint Sealant
Reseals expansion joints disturbed during lifting, keeping winter moisture out of the joint.
Surface Sealer
Protects the driveway from freeze-thaw cracking after the lift.
Leveling Equipment
Tracks elevation in real time to confirm the panel reaches the target grade.
Bonding Primer
Improves patch adhesion so the fill doesn't pop loose under vehicle weight.

FAQs
Driveway Lifting FAQs
Why is my driveway sinking near the garage?
Backfill soil compacted behind the garage during construction settles unevenly over time, it's the single most common spot for driveway settlement on bench lots.
What's the difference between mudjacking and polyjacking for a driveway?
Mudjacking pumps heavy slurry under the slab, adding weight to the same soil that already settled. Polyjacking uses lightweight foam that doesn't add that load and cures within hours instead of days.
How much does driveway lifting cost compared to replacement?
Lifting typically costs 50-80% less than tearing out and repouring, since there's no demolition or new concrete involved.
How long before I can park on the driveway again?
Most lifted driveways are ready for vehicle traffic within a few hours of the injection.
Will the lift hold permanently?
When the void beneath is fully filled and there's no ongoing water erosion under the slab, the lift holds for the long term. We check for active soil washout before quoting.
Can a DIY leveling kit fix a sinking driveway?
Not reliably. Uneven foam distribution from a DIY kit on expansive bench soil tends to re-sink within a season, which usually costs more to fix the second time.
