Driveway lifting raises a sunken driveway slab back to grade, most often right where it meets the garage apron where vehicle weight concentrates over backfilled soil. On Draper's newer builds, that fill keeps settling for years after construction, and the slab edge nearest the garage door is usually the first place it shows.
Riverton Foundation Pros lifts with polyurethane foam injected through dime-sized holes rather than demolishing and repouring, which keeps the driveway usable the same day instead of out of service for a week.

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 water weight that can push already-compacting soil further out of place.
Concrete Patch Mix
Seals access holes to a clean, flush finish after injection.
Joint Sealant
Reseals expansion joints disturbed by the lift so water doesn't collect in the gap.
Surface Sealer
Guards against Utah's freeze-thaw cracking once the slab is back at grade.
Leveling Equipment
Keeps the lift accurate across a wide driveway slab, not just at one access point.
Bonding Primer
Improves patch adhesion where the new material meets the original concrete edge.

FAQs
Driveway Lifting FAQs
Why is my driveway sinking near the garage door?
The garage approach carries the heaviest concentrated vehicle load on the driveway, and it usually sits over soil that was backfilled during construction. As that fill compacts, the slab edge closest to the garage drops first.
Is polyurethane concrete lifting cheaper than replacing a slab?
Yes. Lifting avoids demolition and new-concrete costs and skips the multi-day cure time of a fresh pour, since the driveway is usable again within hours of the injection.
How long does driveway lifting take to cure?
The foam reaches full strength in about 15 minutes, so most driveways are ready for vehicle traffic the same day.
Will driveway lifting fix water pooling at the garage?
Lifting corrects the slab's slope, which often resolves pooling caused by a sunken low point. If the pooling comes from yard grading rather than the slab itself, a French drain may be needed alongside the lift.
Do I need a permit for driveway lifting?
No, . Foam lifting on an existing slab is considered a repair, not a structural replacement, so permitting usually isn't required.
