Driveway Lifting in Kaysville, UT
Driveway lifting in Kaysville, UT: polyurethane foam lifts sunken slabs level in hours, not days. Free estimates on garage approach repairs.
Serving Kaysville and nearby communities.
A driveway that's sinking near the garage is almost never a foundation problem, it's base erosion under the slab combined with Utah's freeze-thaw cycle working the soil loose underneath. Kaysville Foundation Pros lifts those sunken panels back to grade with polyurethane foam injection, which fills the void under the slab and raises it without tearing anything out.
It's faster and cheaper than a full driveway replacement, and it works on both approach aprons and full driveway panels.

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
Freeze-thaw cycles move soil under Kaysville driveways every winter, which is exactly why lightweight foam holds up better than loose fill long term.
Polyurethane Foam
Provides lightweight lift without adding excess weight to the soil, so the slab doesn't just sink again next freeze-thaw season.
Concrete Patch Mix
Used to seal access holes after injection work for a clean finish.
Joint Sealant
Reseals expansion joints disturbed during the lifting process, keeping water out of the joint.
Surface Sealer
Protects the driveway from moisture and future cracking through winter freeze cycles.
Leveling Equipment
Ensures accurate measurement during the lifting procedure so the slope drains correctly.
Bonding Primer
Improves patch adhesion to the original concrete surface for a durable repair.

FAQs
Driveway Lifting FAQs
Is polyurethane foam lifting better than mudjacking for my driveway?
Foam is lighter, cures faster, and doesn't add extra weight that can cause the slab to sink again. Mudjacking uses a heavier slurry and typically takes longer to cure before the driveway is usable.
How much does it cost to lift a sunken driveway vs replace it?
Lifting typically costs a fraction of full replacement since there's no demolition or new concrete pour. A free estimate will give you both numbers to compare for your driveway.
How long does driveway lifting take?
Most jobs are finished the same day, and the driveway is usually drivable within a few hours of the lift.
Do I need a permit to lift a driveway?
Lifting an existing driveway usually doesn't require a permit. Full replacement, especially work extending into the public right-of-way, may need one depending on your location.
Is DIY driveway lifting a good idea?
Driveway lifting kits exist, but without calibrated pressure equipment it's easy to over-lift one section and crack the slab further. A contractor controls the lift with monitoring equipment.
What causes a driveway to sink near the garage?
Base erosion from water runoff and freeze-thaw soil movement are the most common causes, especially where the driveway meets the garage slab at a joint.
