Under the right conditions, Polyurethane Foam Lifting can provide a durable, long-term solution for sinking concrete slabs. Our experience shows that when the underlying soil is stable and the slab is not exposed to ongoing moisture or erosion, this method can function as a permanent fix. Unlike traditional mudjacking, which uses a heavy slurry that can wash out or add weight to the soil, polyurethane foam is lightweight, non-porous, and naturally resists erosion.
While polyjacking is highly effective, its longevity depends on a few key factors:
