Fast, Effective Concrete Leveling & Repair
Concrete used for walkways and driveways looks great when it's new but over time the concrete slab will eventually start to shift as the ground does. The result can look disastrous and can create a dangerous tripping hazards as well. This far cry from the originally smoothly poured concrete often leads to frustration and a hopeless feeling. If you have had a similar experience with your home know that you’re not alone and that you are in the right place! Davenport Foundation Repair has dedicated teams of knowledgeable and experienced professionals that use our patented leveling product simply known as PolyLevel®. This revolutionary concrete lifting & leveling product is capable of lifting, leveling and stabilizing concrete slab in an extremely efficient and cost-effective way. The process for concrete lifting and leveling begins by drilling a few small holes in the slab and then pouring the PolyLevel polymer into the hole. The polymer will mix and expand beneath the slab, raising it to the desired height and stabilizing it in the process. PolyLevel only takes about 15 minutes to dry and the product is environmentally friendly.

In Lindon, Utah, a homeowner faced one of the most severe foundation failures we've ever encountered. What began as minor cracks in the drywall quickly escalated into a multi-faceted structural issue that required an extensive, expertly engineered response. This case study outlines the signs, causes, and successful resolution of this foundation disaster, demonstrating the importance of early detection and professional repair.
The Warning Signs: Cracks, Separation, and Sinking
The first visible signs of trouble were cracks in the drywall, a classic early warning signal of foundation movement. However, these weren't limited to cosmetic hairline fractures — they extended across walls and widened over time, indicating significant structural movement below the surface.
Upon inspection, it was clear the concrete slab floor was also affected. Sections of the slab had visibly sunk and cracked, as captured in the images above. In some areas, you could even see daylight beneath the baseboards, showing just how far the structure had shifted away from its original placement. These symptoms suggested a major loss of soil support under the foundation — a dangerous scenario for any home.
Understanding the Cause: Unique Utah Soil Conditions
Foundation issues in Utah often stem from the region’s soil composition and climate. Lindon, like many parts of Utah County, sits on a mix of expansive clay soils and loamy substrates that swell when wet and shrink during dry periods. Add in freeze-thaw cycles and potential poor drainage around the home, and you’ve got a recipe for serious foundation instability.
Over time, these soil shifts can cause uneven support beneath a home’s foundation. If not corrected, this leads to settling, floor sinking, and structural cracking — just like what happened in this Lindon home.
The Solution: PolyLevel Injection and 80 Steel Foundation Piers
Given the magnitude of the damage, a typical foundation fix simply wouldn’t suffice. Our team designed a multi-tiered approach using two proven technologies:
-
PolyLevel Concrete Lifting:
We began by stabilizing and lifting the sunken concrete slab using PolyLevel — a high-density polyurethane foam injected beneath the concrete. As the foam expands, it fills voids in the soil and raises the slab back to its original level. Unlike traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel is lightweight, long-lasting, and minimally invasive. -
Installation of 80 Foundation Piers:
To address the underlying structural failure, we installed approximately 80 steel push piers around the home’s foundation. These piers were driven deep into load-bearing soil or bedrock, bypassing the unstable upper layers entirely. Once the piers were in place, they were used to lift and permanently stabilize the home.
This combination of technologies not only stopped further movement but also corrected the settling that had already occurred.
Total Cost and Scope: A Major Investment in Stability
At a total project cost of $144,000, this was one of the largest residential foundation repairs we’ve completed in Utah. It serves as a powerful reminder that while preventative maintenance and early intervention may come with a price, ignoring warning signs can lead to far costlier repairs in the future.
Key Takeaways for Utah Homeowners
-
Cracks Aren’t Just Cosmetic:
Cracks in drywall, concrete slabs, or along baseboards can be signs of a deeper issue. Don't ignore them. -
Soil Movement Is Common in Utah:
Expansive clay soils, freeze-thaw cycles, and inconsistent moisture levels can wreak havoc on foundations over time. -
Early Inspections Save Money:
If caught early, foundation issues can often be corrected with fewer piers, less disruption, and lower cost. -
Permanent Fixes Require Engineering:
DIY fixes or cosmetic patches won't solve a settling foundation. Steel piers and structural solutions like PolyLevel offer long-term protection.
Conclusion: Peace of Mind Restored
Thanks to a thorough inspection and engineered repair plan, this home in Lindon is now structurally sound and stabilized for the future. The transformation wasn’t just physical — it also brought peace of mind to the homeowner, knowing their most valuable investment is safe.
For Utah homeowners, this case is a powerful reminder of how local soil conditions and subtle signs of damage can spiral into major repairs if left unaddressed. If you’re noticing signs of settlement, don’t wait — get a professional foundation inspection and protect your home today.
