Materials
Materials and methods for Patio Lifting
Backyard patios near South Jordan homes often settle unevenly where fill soil meets original grade, which makes re-pitching the slab as important as lifting it.

Polyurethane Foam
Lifts patio slabs with minimal disruption to surrounding landscaping or plantings.

Patch Compound
Fills and finishes drilled access holes smoothly to match the existing patio surface.

Joint Filler
Restores expansion joints after the lifting process so water doesn't track back underneath.

Surface Sealant
Guards the patio against moisture and surface wear.

Leveling Tools
Used to verify consistent elevation across the patio.

Bonding Agent
Enhances adhesion between patch material and existing concrete.

FAQs
Patio Lifting FAQs
How much does patio lifting cost in South Jordan?
Cost depends on patio size, number of sunken sections, and whether drainage correction is needed. A free estimate gives you an exact number.
How long does patio lifting take?
Most jobs finish in a few hours and the patio is usable the same day.
Will patio lifting fix water pooling near my foundation?
When the sunken section is re-pitched correctly during the lift so water flows away from the house instead of toward it.
Do I need a permit for patio lifting?
Lifting an existing slab usually doesn't need a permit. New patio construction often does.
Is DIY patio lifting a good idea?
Not for drainage correction, getting the pitch wrong just moves the water problem to a different spot on the slab.
When should I call about a sunken patio?
Call as soon as you notice pooling water, uneven joints, or a visibly sunk section, especially if water is tracking toward the foundation.
