Frequently Asked Questions
How much does mudjacking cost in Texas?
Mudjacking in Texas costs $300 to $800 per slab section, with most residential projects totaling $1,000 to $3,000. A typical driveway with three to five settled sections costs $1,200 to $2,500. Mudjacking is 50 to 70 percent less expensive than slab replacement, making it the most affordable concrete leveling option. The cost depends on how many sections need lifting, how much they have settled, and accessibility for the pump truck.
What is the difference between mudjacking and foam leveling?
Mudjacking pumps a cement, water, and soil slurry beneath the slab, while foam leveling injects expanding polyurethane foam. Mudjacking costs 20 to 40 percent less than foam. However, the heavy slurry adds weight that can cause re-settling on weak Texas clay soil. Foam is lightweight, cures in 15 minutes, and requires smaller holes. Mudjacking requires 24 to 48 hours before use. Both methods work but foam is increasingly preferred in Texas.
How long does mudjacking take?
Most residential mudjacking jobs take two to four hours. The crew drills one to two inch holes through the slab, pumps the cement slurry until the slab lifts to grade, then patches the holes with fresh concrete. Avoid foot traffic for 24 hours and vehicle traffic for 48 hours to allow the slurry to cure. The pump truck needs access to within 100 feet of the work area. Larger projects may take a full day.
How long does mudjacking last in Texas?
Mudjacking typically lasts 5 to 10 years in Texas before some re-settling may occur. The longevity depends primarily on the underlying soil conditions. On stable sandy soil, mudjacking can last 15 or more years. On expansive clay soil that continues to shrink and swell, the heavy slurry may compact the weak clay further, causing gradual re-settling. Addressing drainage issues alongside mudjacking significantly extends the repair life.
Can all sunken concrete be mudjacked?
Most structurally sound concrete can be mudjacked, but some situations are not suitable. Concrete that is severely cracked, broken into pieces, or crumbling cannot support the hydraulic pressure of pumping. Slabs over a plumbing leak need the leak repaired first. Concrete that has settled more than 4 to 6 inches may be more cost-effective to replace. A professional assessment determines whether mudjacking will provide a lasting result.
Does mudjacking damage landscaping?
Mudjacking causes minimal landscape disruption compared to concrete replacement. The pump truck stays on the driveway or street while hoses extend to the work area. The only ground disturbance is the one to two inch holes drilled through the concrete, which are patched afterward. No excavation is required. Surrounding plants, grass, and hardscape remain undisturbed. It is one of the least invasive concrete repair methods available.
