Concrete Lifting
Polyurethane foam jacking. The cleaner, faster, longer-lasting way to lift sunken concrete. Driveways, pool decks, sidewalks, warehouse floors. Walk on it the same day.
How it works
Sunken concrete almost always means one thing: the soil under it moved. We drill a small hole through the slab, inject expanding polyurethane foam beneath it, and lift the slab back to grade as the foam expands and stabilizes the supporting soil.
Once cured, the foam is structural, lightweight, and waterproof. The slab is ready for foot traffic the same day, full vehicle traffic shortly after.
Why foam beats mudjacking
Traditional mudjacking pumps a heavy slurry of cement, sand, and water under the slab. It works for a while. Then the slurry adds weight to the same soil that failed in the first place, the problem returns, and you’re back where you started.
Polyurethane foam is the modern replacement:
- Lightweight. Won’t reload the failed soil column.
- Waterproof. Won’t wash out or erode.
- Structural. Engineered compressive strength.
- Clean. Small injection holes (about the size of a dime) vs. large slurry ports.
- Fast. The slab is usable the same day.
What we lift
- Driveways. Sunken approaches and trip-hazard joints.
- Walkways and sidewalks. Eliminate trip hazards and ponding.
- Pool decks and patios. Lift settled slabs without tearing out and re-pouring.
- Warehouse and commercial floors. Minimal disruption to operations; usually done in a single shift.
- Garage floors and slab transitions. Fix the bump where the garage meets the driveway.
Common causes in SWFL
- Soil washout from drainage or irrigation
- Voids created by retreating fill behind seawalls
- Settling around pools, especially after the initial backfill
- Storm surge undermining slabs near the water
- Plain old time and Florida sand
When lifting isn’t enough
Sometimes the slab is too damaged, too thin, or too far gone, and replacement is genuinely the right answer. We’ll tell you when that’s the case. We’d rather lose the job than try to lift something that should be re-poured.
