Serving Eagle Mountain and nearby communities.

Eagle Mountain Foundation Pros provides sidewalk lifting for walkway panels that have shifted out of alignment and created a trip hazard. We inject polyurethane foam beneath the low panel, raise it flush with its neighbors, and patch the drill holes, usually in a single visit.

What's included

What's included with Sidewalk Lifting

Typically included: panel height assessment, access hole drilling, foam injection to raise the low panel, alignment check against adjacent slabs, hole patching.

Optional: joint resealing along the full walkway, surface protectant coating for added weather resistance.

Customer prep: point out any panels you consider a trip hazard, and let us know if the walkway is on city right-of-way versus your private property so we can flag permit needs during the estimate.

How it works

How our Sidewalk Lifting process works

  1. Sidewalk Inspection photo
    Step 1

    Sidewalk Inspection

    Trip hazards and uneven slabs are identified along the walkway.

  2. Access Hole Drilling photo
    Step 2

    Access Hole Drilling

    Small entry points are drilled into the affected slab sections.

  3. Foam Injection photo
    Step 3

    Foam Injection

    Material is injected to raise the sidewalk to a safe, level height.

  4. Height Matching photo
    Step 4

    Height Matching

    Adjacent slabs are aligned to eliminate the tripping edge.

  5. Hole Patching photo
    Step 5

    Hole Patching

    Access points are sealed to restore a smooth surface.

  6. Final Safety Check photo
    Step 6

    Final Safety Check

    The sidewalk is reviewed to confirm proper alignment and safety.

Materials

Materials and methods for Sidewalk Lifting

Freeze-thaw cycling shifts sidewalk panels across Utah Valley every winter, and younger concrete is no exception once the ground beneath it settles.

  • Polyurethane Foam photo

    Polyurethane Foam

    Raises sidewalk slabs quickly with minimal curing time, so the walkway is usable again the same day.

  • Patch Mix photo

    Patch Mix

    Fills access holes to restore a flush surface finish that won't catch a shoe or stroller wheel.

  • Joint Sealant photo

    Joint Sealant

    Reseals joints between slabs after lifting, which matters once seasonal freeze-thaw starts working the panel edges again.

  • Surface Protectant photo

    Surface Protectant

    Helps guard repaired areas from weather exposure through winter de-icing and spring runoff.

  • Alignment Gauge photo

    Alignment Gauge

    Used to measure slab height differences during the process so the fix actually meets code tolerance.

  • Bonding Primer photo

    Bonding Primer

    Improves patch material adhesion to original concrete so the repair doesn't crack loose.

FAQs

Sidewalk Lifting FAQs

How much does sidewalk lifting cost in Eagle Mountain?

Pricing depends on the number of panels and how much height difference needs correcting. A free estimate gives you a firm number before we drill.

Does a sidewalk panel need a permit to lift?

Sidewalks along a public right-of-way often need city sign-off since they affect pedestrian access, while a private walkway panel on your own property usually doesn't. We'll confirm which applies during the estimate.

How long does sidewalk lifting take?

Most jobs finish in a single same-day visit, with the walkway usable again within a few hours once the foam sets.

Is a shim or ramp a permanent fix for an uneven sidewalk?

No. A shim or asphalt ramp covers the trip hazard temporarily but doesn't address the void beneath the slab causing it to sink, so the problem usually comes back or gets worse.

What causes sidewalk panels to shift in the first place?

Freeze-thaw cycling and soil settlement beneath the slab are the most common causes locally, especially on newer subdivisions where fill soil is still compacting.

Can you lift just one panel or does the whole walkway need work?

We typically lift only the low panel. There's no need to disturb slabs that are already sitting level.
