DIY vs professional polyjacking
Consumer foam products exist, but controlled slab lifting requires specialized pumping equipment, product knowledge and monitoring.
Why lifting is usually professional
- Two-part foams need proportioning equipment and temperature control
- Over-injection can crack slabs or push them unevenly
- Foam can enter drains or damage utilities
- Protective equipment is needed when handling components
Reasonable DIY tasks
- Extending downspouts away from slabs
- Improving grading so water drains away
- Sealing joints and small cracks
- Monitoring settlement with photos over time
Next step: an assessment
Photos help, but the only reliable way to decide whether a slab can be lifted is an on-site look at the concrete, the drainage and the likely cause of settlement. Submit a request and the HAUSE intake team will review it and confirm whether a suitable contractor is available in your area.
