Patio Lifting in Lehi, UT
Patio lifting in Lehi, UT corrects sunken slabs and pooling water with polyurethane foam injection. Free estimates, same-day results.
Serving Saratoga Springs and nearby communities.
A backyard patio that's started pooling water after every storm or snowmelt usually isn't a drainage problem on the surface, it's the slab underneath settling unevenly. Saratoga Springs Foundation Pros lifts and releveles sunken patio sections with polyurethane foam injection, correcting both the height and the slope so water moves away from the house instead of sitting against it. Around Lehi, seasonal moisture shifts in the soil make this a common fix on patios poured in the last several years.

Materials
Materials and methods for Patio Lifting
Backyard soil near Lehi shifts with seasonal moisture, so the same foam used for driveways works well here for a lift that won't disturb surrounding landscaping.
Polyurethane Foam
Lifts patio slabs with minimal disruption to surrounding landscaping or planted beds.
Patch Compound
Fills and finishes drilled access holes smoothly into the existing surface.
Joint Filler
Restores expansion joints after the lifting process to keep water out of the gap.
Surface Sealant
Guards the patio against moisture and surface wear through seasonal freeze-thaw cycles.
Leveling Tools
Used to verify consistent elevation across the patio during the lift.
Bonding Agent
Enhances adhesion between patch material and existing concrete so repairs hold long term.

DIY vs hiring a pro for Patio Lifting
| DIY | Hire a pro |
|---|---|
| Sealing minor surface cracks with a concrete patch product | Lifting a panel sunk more than half an inch, since uneven foam pressure can crack the slab further |
| Recaulking a joint that's lost its seal | Patios with repeated pooling water, which usually points to an underlying grading issue |
| — | Any patio near the foundation where poor drainage could be contributing to basement moisture |
