Polyjacking in Meridian, Idaho

Polyjacking options for Meridian properties.

Garage slab that tilted.

Common on fill. We inject to bring the plane back toward the overhead door. We do not lift a footing with foam.

Interior kitchen low spot.

A slab-on-grade dip. Small holes, foam, patch. Flooring on top is a different trade after.

Porch or patio pad.

A dropped pad next to the house. Isolation from the stem still matters. Foam under a pad that is broken into rubble is a waste.

Void fill without a big lift.

Sometimes the job is to fill a washout, not to chase a perfect level. We say that.

How we handle polyjacking in Meridian.

1. We walk the slab and mark the low and the cracks.
2. We say foam, mud, or replace from that walk.
3. We write hole count, foam volume estimate, and patch.
4. We drill, inject, and watch the lift so we do not crown the slab.
5. We patch the holes and leave you a plane you can coat or floor.

Materials and methods.

Polyjacking uses two-part polyurethane that expands under the slab and sets fast. Holes are small. Cleanup is lighter than a slurry. Angi lists polyjacking around $5 to $25 per square foot versus mudjacking around $3 to $6. Foam is the premium method.

This is not a house lift. Push piers and helicals take footings. Foam takes slabs. If your doors stick because the stem dropped, hang up and look at the pier pages.

Valley notes: south Meridian garage slabs on fill are the volume foam call. A patio that fell away from the house can lift if it is still one panel. A patio that is a pile of pieces needs replacement on the concrete site.

Irrigation washouts under a walk are void fills. We can foam those. We also tell you to fix the water or the void comes back.

A slab that is already coated with epoxy needs a conversation. Holes in a flake floor are patches you will see. Sometimes we lift first, then you recast the coat.

Valley notes: a sidewalk panel that dropped at a mailbox is a small foam job if the panel is intact. A city sidewalk in the right-of-way is ACHD or city paper. We pour private pads. Public panels are a different conversation. Interior polyjacking under a kitchen means small holes through a finished floor or work from a garage if the slab is one pour. We say which. Foam that leaks into a duct or a crawl is a mess. We watch the inject. If the slab is already broken into four rocking pieces, replacement on the concrete site is the honest bid. Foam will not stitch rubble. Keep cars off a garage slab until the foam has set. A tire on a green lift is a crater. We give you a window in hours, not a slogan. If you have radiant tubes in a slab, tell us. We do not drill a heated floor blind. A camera or a plan is required or we walk.

A marble on a garage slab that rolls to the house is a drainage problem as well as a lift problem. If we lift the slab and the water still runs to the stem, we tell you. Grade outside still has to fall away. Foam does not replace a missing gutter. A porch pad that broke its isolation from the house will still crack at that line after a lift. We re-cut the joint. Leaving it bridged is how the next winter pops the edge.

Old mudjacking holes from a prior slurry job can be reused or skipped. We do not pretend they are not there. A slurry that already failed is a reason to talk foam or replace, not another bag of mud. We look at those holes on the walk. Bring a photo of the low corner with a door in the frame so we can see fall before we arrive.

What polyjacking costs in Meridian.

Angi publishes about $5 to $25 per square foot for polyurethane lifting. Area, drop, and access move the bid. We quote the slab.

Polyjacking foam under Meridian slabs

Polyjacking is the foam method under a sunken Meridian slab. South Meridian garage pads on fill are the usual search. The slab dips toward the house. A marble rolls. Small holes, expanding polyurethane, a watched lift, then patches. Mudjacking slurry is the heavier cousin. This page stays on foam.

Fill over laterals and soft imported dirt leave voids after a wet spring. Clay fines wash out under saw joints. Freeze-thaw works an edge that already sat hollow. Foam weighs less than slurry and sets fast, which helps when you need cars back on a garage pad the same day. It still will not stitch rubble. A panel broken into rocking pieces needs replacement, not more foam.

Crawl versus slab is the first filter. If you have a crawl and a room sag, the wood under the floor is often the job, not foam. Polyjacking wants a concrete panel with a void under it. Slab-on-grade kitchens, porches, and garage floors are the candidates. We isolate a porch pad from the house stem so a lift does not bridge a joint that should move.

Irrigation washouts under a walk are void fills we can foam. Grade outside still has to fall away. Foam does not replace a missing gutter. Radiant tubes in a slab need a plan before any drill. Epoxy-coated garage floors will show every patch. Say what you will see when we leave.

Call (208) 826-0651 with which slab dropped and a photo with a level in the frame. We look at whether the slab is still one piece before we talk foam volume.
