Cost factors

What affects the cost of polyjacking

Prices vary by region, contractor and site, so we don’t publish figures. These factors drive the quote you’ll receive.

Main cost drivers

  • Area and number of slabs
  • How far the slab needs to be lifted
  • Volume of voids to fill (foam is often priced by quantity)
  • Access and set-up
  • Product selected
  • Extras: joint sealing, crack repair, drainage corrections

Comparing quotes

  • Is the scope identical — same slabs, same target levels?
  • Is joint sealing included?
  • What is the warranty, in writing, and what does it exclude?
  • How will the cause of settlement be addressed?

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.

What drives cost on a specific site

The site factors that change scope. No prices — a contractor quotes after assessment.

Area & number of slabs

More panels means more injection points and set-up.

Adds scope: Several separate areas

How far it must lift

Larger drops take more material and care.

Adds scope: Deep settlement

Void size underneath

Unknown until drilled; big voids use more foam.

Adds scope: Washed-out soil

Access

Distance for hoses, obstacles and working space.

Adds scope: Backyards, tight side yards

Concrete condition

Cracks may need sealing; some slabs can’t be lifted.

Adds scope: Many cracks

Drainage fixes

Downspouts or grading may need work so it lasts.

Adds scope: Water toward slab

Product & site conditions

Foam type and weather affect the approach.

Adds scope: Cold or wet season

No prices are published. Scope and cost are set by the contractor after seeing the site.
