Mud Jacking
Get a Quote For Your Project
A cost-effective solution for repairing sunken concrete, mud jacking lifts and stabilizes concrete slabs by injecting a slurry mixture beneath them. This process is ideal for sidewalks, driveways, patios, and other concrete surfaces that have settled over time. Our method involves drilling small holes in the slab, through which the slurry is pumped, raising the slab back to its original level. The process is minimally invasive, quick, and efficient, restoring the functionality and appearance of your concrete surfaces without the need for complete replacement.
This technique not only corrects uneven concrete but also addresses the underlying issues, such as soil erosion or compaction, that caused the settlement. By filling voids and stabilizing the soil, mud jacking prevents future sinking and cracking, extending the lifespan of the concrete.
FAQ
What is mud jacking?
Mud jacking is a repair technique for lifting sunken concrete slabs back to their original position by injecting a slurry mixture underneath them.
How long does mud jacking take?
The process typically takes a few hours to complete, depending on the project’s size. Most areas can be used again within 24 to 48 hours after the repair.
Is mud jacking durable?
Yes, mud jacking is a durable solution. It addresses both the symptoms of sinking concrete and its underlying causes, providing a long-lasting fix.
Can all sunken concrete be mud jacked?
While mud jacking is suitable for many situations, extreme cases of damage or instability may require alternative solutions. A professional assessment can determine the best course of action.
What are the advantages of mud jacking over slab replacement?
Mud jacking is less expensive, less disruptive, and faster than complete slab replacement. It also conserves resources by reusing the existing concrete, making it a more sustainable option.
