Concrete raising is highly effective in residential, commercial, or municipal situations. Intermountain Foundation Repair, Inc. lifts sidewalks, streets, ramps, patios, driveways, foundations, parking lots, garage floors, and basements - almost anything that is concrete.

Concrete raising is a cost-effective alternative to replacing concrete. Slab Jacking can usually be done for less than half the cost of pouring new concrete, however, the savings may be even greater since the costs of demolition, removal, and landscaping are eliminated.

Most projects can be completed quickly and economically with minimal disruption. Intermountain Foundation Repair, Inc. could raise a patio in the morning and the owner could have a party on it that night.

A pattern of 1-5/8" holes are drilled throughout the sunken slab.

A mixture of material known as grout or slurry is pumped under the slab. Once any void is filled, the grout becomes pressurized and hydraulically raises the slab to the desired height.
