Foam Spray to Shore Up Concrete?

I remember seeing videos on social media some years back about some technician shooting a foam underneath leaning concrete to shore it back to level.
Anyone know who does that in South Louisiana, and have you had any experience on if it lasts and is worth it?

BCG and Reliable Foundations are two I know of.
Neighbor recently used Reliable Foundations and I know it was not cheap, over 10k.
Can't comment on long term effectiveness, its only been a month or so.

I believe the usual is to shoot fluidized sediment under pressure for that purpose. Intuitively seems more robust to me.

You know a company that does that in the Acadiana area?

Any idea of the square footage he was getting raised? Mine is relatively small but right up on my walkway to my front porch. Literally 12 square foot by 18 inches of (needed) elevation.

No, I'm all theory no action.
But I do know that it is a thing. Drill holes through the slab from above, attach hoses, and pump.
Whether that or traditional jacking up the house with placement of piers around the margin is best is probably different Case by case

I'd say it was about 1000 sq ft
