Water pooling on a sunken backyard patio ties back to the same soil settlement pattern showing up across newer Lehi yards. Patio lifting raises those low panels with polyurethane foam injected through small drill holes, restoring a slope that actually sheds water away from the house instead of toward the foundation.
The goal is as much about drainage direction as it is about leveling the walking surface. Lehi Foundation Pros checks both before calling the job finished.

Fills and finishes drilled access holes smoothly.
Joint Filler
Restores expansion joints after the lifting process so panels can still shift with temperature changes.
Surface Sealant
Guards the patio against moisture and surface wear through winter freeze-thaw cycles.
Leveling Tools
Used to verify consistent elevation across the patio.
Bonding Agent
Enhances adhesion between patch material and existing concrete.

What Does a Patio Lifting Cost in Lehi?
Cost depends on patio size, number of sunken panels, and how much slope correction is needed. A written estimate after inspection gives you a real range for your patio's size and condition.
| Project type | Typical range | What’s included |
|---|---|---|
| Single panel lift | $300–$700, | one low section fixed to stop pooling. |
| Multi-panel correction | $700–$1,800, | several panels lifted and re-sloped together. |
| Full patio releveling | $1,800–$4,000, | comprehensive correction across most of the patio surface. |
These are typical local ballparks — final cost depends on scope, materials, and site conditions. A free estimate gives you an accurate, itemized number for your home.

DIY vs Hiring a Pro for Patio Lifting
| DIY | Hire a pro |
|---|---|
| Clearing standing water promptly after rain to limit erosion under the slab while you plan a repair. | Lifting the slab itself, since getting the right slope to shed water away from the house takes grading judgment a DIY kit can't give. |
| Patching a small surface crack as a cosmetic stopgap. | Any patio where pooling water sits near the foundation rather than just mid-yard. |

FAQs
Patio Lifting FAQs
Is concrete lifting cheaper than replacing a slab?
Typically. Lifting a structurally sound patio slab usually costs significantly less than a full tear-out and replacement.
How long does patio lifting take?
Most patio lifting jobs are completed the same day, and the surface is usable within hours.
Do I need a permit to lift my patio in Lehi?
Usually not, since you're correcting an existing slab rather than new construction.
Can a DIY foam kit fix a sunken patio?
Getting even lift and correct slope with a DIY kit is difficult, and an uneven lift can crack the slab further or send water the wrong direction.
Why is my patio pooling water near the house?
Settled soil under the slab often creates a low spot that redirects water back toward the foundation instead of away from it, which lifting and re-sloping corrects.
How does patio lifting pair with waterproofing?
If water from a sunken patio has been reaching your foundation, lifting the slab reduces that source, which often works alongside basement waterproofing for a complete fix.
