A sunken slab doesn't always need a heavy fix. Sometimes the problem is a small void that a lightweight material can fill without adding load to already-settling soil.

Polyurethane foam injection uses an expanding foam pumped through small drilled holes to raise concrete. Melissa Concrete Lifting reaches for this method often on newer slabs sitting on fill dirt, since the material cures fast and doesn't stress soil that's still finding its footing.

What's included

What's included with Polyurethane Foam Injection

Typically included: Optional: Customer prep:

  • Small-hole drilling, usually under an inch across
  • Foam injected in controlled stages while the slab is monitored for lift
  • Immediate patching once target grade is reached
  • Additional injection points if a void extends further than expected
  • Joint sealant applied after the lift cures
  • Keep the work area clear so drilling and pumping can move quickly
  • Note any pets or delicate landscaping near the slab edge

FAQs

Polyurethane Foam Injection FAQs

Is mudjacking or polyurethane foam better for a new build on clay soil?

Foam is lighter, which matters on newer slabs where the soil beneath is still settling. It also cures faster, so you're back to using the area sooner.

Will foam injection work if the void under my pool deck is deep?

It can, up to a point. Very deep voids sometimes need layered injection or a mudjacking slurry underneath the foam. We check depth first before recommending foam alone.

How long does foam injection take to cure?

Foam sets up quickly, often ready for foot traffic within a few hours. Vehicle loads may need a bit longer depending on the slab.

Is foam injection more expensive than mudjacking?

It can run higher per void because of material cost, though it often uses less volume overall. The right choice comes down to void size and slab type, not price alone.

Can I do foam injection myself with a store-bought kit?

Consumer kits handle small cosmetic gaps but can't reach or fill deeper voids evenly. On anything beyond a shallow patch, a DIY attempt risks an uneven lift.
