Utah Concrete Lifting offers specialized curb lifting services to correct sunken or misaligned curbs across Weber and Davis County, Utah. We restore the original height and alignment of your concrete curbs to eliminate trip hazards, improve water drainage, and enhance curb appeal. Our process is fast, effective, and far more affordable than full replacement.
Why Curb Lifting Is Necessary
Concrete curbs play an important role in protecting property, guiding water runoff, and maintaining the safety and aesthetics of driveways, sidewalks, and streets. Over time, Utah’s soil conditions and weather extremes can cause these curbs to shift or sink. Common causes include:
- Water erosion washing out the base soil
- Freeze-thaw cycles that expand and contract the ground
- Poor compaction during original construction
- Soil shrinkage due to drought or dehydration
- Natural ground settling around driveways and sidewalks
Without correction, sunken curbs can damage adjacent concrete, affect drainage flow, and create liability risks for property owners.
Our Curb Lifting Solutions
We use proven techniques to raise and stabilize curbs without the mess and cost of demolition. The most common solutions we offer include:
Mud Jacking
A traditional process where a grout-like slurry is pumped beneath the curb to lift it. Learn more about mud jacking in Utah.
Polyurethane Foam Lifting
Lightweight, fast-curing foam is injected under the slab and expands to fill voids and lift the curb. Discover more about polyurethane foam lifting.
Polylevel Injection
Our polylevel injection method ensures a clean, accurate lift for curbs with minimal disruption and excellent long-term results.
Where We Perform Curb Lifting
| Application Area | Common Issues Solved |
|---|---|
| Residential Driveway Edges | Sinking curbs, trip hazards, vehicle scraping |
| Sidewalk Curbs | Uneven transitions, ADA non-compliance, water pooling |
| Street and Gutter Lines | Misaligned curb & gutter causing improper drainage |
| Patio or Landscape Borders | Shifting curbs causing soil erosion or water damage |
Properly lifted curbs help redirect stormwater, protect landscaping, and prevent future cracking or separation from adjacent slabs.
How Curb Lifting Works
Here’s a simplified breakdown of our process:
- Evaluate the extent of the settling and soil conditions
- Drill small injection holes near the affected curb
- Inject material beneath the curb to fill voids and raise the slab
- Level the curb with precision, restoring its original grade
- Seal & Clean the area to leave it ready for immediate use
Our methods can also be combined with other services such as concrete leveling or concrete repair to fully restore adjacent structures.
