A driveway that's sunk near the garage door usually means the soil under that section settled or washed out from runoff, not that the concrete failed. Driveway lifting injects polyurethane foam under the slab to raise it back to grade, closing the gap and restoring proper drainage away from the garage.
South Jordan Foundation Pros checks slope direction before lifting, since a driveway that's settled toward the garage often needs the pitch corrected as part of the job, not just the height.

How Our Driveway Lifting Process Works
Step 1Driveway Inspection
We identify sunken or sloped sections that need 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 gets adjusted to restore drainage away from the garage.
Step 5Hole Sealing
Drilled holes are patched to blend with the existing surface.
Step 6Surface Review
We check the driveway for even, stable elevation.
Materials
Materials and Methods for Driveway Lifting

Polyurethane Foam
Lifts the slab without the added weight that can push an already soft sub-base down further.

Concrete Patch Mix
Seals the access holes after injection so the surface finish holds through winter plowing and salt.

Joint Sealant
Reseals expansion joints disturbed during the lift to keep water out of the joint.

Surface Sealer
Guards the driveway against moisture and future cracking from freeze-thaw cycles.

Leveling Equipment
Confirms accurate elevation throughout the lift so the slope ends up correct, not just level.

Bonding Primer
Improves how well the patch material adheres to the original concrete.

FAQs
Driveway Lifting FAQs
Why is my driveway sinking near the garage door?
That area carries concentrated weight from vehicles and often sits over soil that was backfilled during construction, which settles more than undisturbed ground. Water runoff pooling there can accelerate it.
Is it cheaper to lift a driveway or replace it?
Lifting is almost always less expensive than a full tear-out and repour, and it finishes the same day , since it works with the existing slab instead of replacing it.
How much does driveway lifting cost in South Jordan?
Cost depends on the size of the sunken area and how many injection points it takes to lift and level it. A small section near the garage costs less than lifting the whole driveway.
How long does driveway lifting take?
Most residential driveway lifts finish within a few hours to one day, and the driveway is usually drivable again the same day.
Do I need a permit for driveway lifting?
Standard driveway slab lifting typically doesn't require a permit since it doesn't touch the foundation. Confirm with the city if your project includes grading changes near a property line.
