About Mud Jacking
Mud jacking (also called slab jacking) lifts sunken concrete — driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors — instead of tearing it out and repouring.
Small holes are drilled through the slab and a fill material is pumped underneath. As the void fills and pressure builds, the slab rises back toward its original position. The holes are then patched.
It's generally used for non-structural exterior concrete that has settled but is still in reasonably sound condition. Concrete that is badly broken or crumbling is usually a replacement candidate instead.
Signs you may need this service
Uneven joints between concrete sections creating a trip hazard
A driveway or walkway sloping back toward the house
Sunken sections of patio, porch, or garage floor
Water pooling on flatwork that used to drain
A hollow sound when you tap or walk on the slab
Seeing one of these doesn't automatically mean repair is required. An on-site evaluation is the only way to know — and sometimes the honest answer is that no work is needed.
How the work generally goes
- 01
Assessment
We check whether the slab is a good candidate for lifting or better suited to replacement.
- 02
Drill ports
Small holes are drilled through the slab at planned locations.
- 03
Pump and lift
Fill material is pumped beneath the slab to fill voids and raise it gradually.
- 04
Patch and clean
Holes are patched and the surrounding area is cleaned up.
Benefits of addressing it early
Removes trip hazards on walkways and steps
Usually faster and less disruptive than tear-out and replacement
Restores drainage away from the house
Keeps existing concrete in service instead of hauling it off

Frequently asked questions
How soon can I use the concrete again?
Return-to-use time depends on the material used and site conditions. We'll tell you what to expect for your specific job before we start.
Is mud jacking a permanent fix?
It restores elevation and fills voids, but if the underlying cause — usually water and soil movement — isn't addressed, settlement can happen again. That's why drainage is often reviewed at the same time.
How much will my repair cost?
Cost depends on the size of the home, the type of foundation, how much movement has occurred, and the method used. The only accurate way to know is an on-site evaluation. Our estimates are free and we put the scope in writing before any work begins.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We'll come out, look at the property, take measurements where needed, and explain what we see in plain language — including when we believe no repair is necessary.
