What Is Mudjacking?

Mudjacking is simply the process of raising and lifting concrete – the process of raising a driveway/sidewalk/patio by pumping “mud” (aka a mixture of concrete and soil) underneath the concrete slab to be lifted. You may not know you need mudjacking or driveway repair, but chances are you probably do.

Examine the concrete that touches your home’s foundation. If you see hairline cracks, shifting in concrete, uneven concrete slabs, gaps between ground and concrete – sometimes visually apparent, sometimes not – you are likely a candidate for mudjacking services, affordable driveway repairn or sidwalk repair in Kansas City.

After a concrete slab has cracked or settled, mudjacking can be used to return it to its original elevation. Here’s how it works: Small holes are drilled in the concrete, and then mud is injected at high pressure to fill the voids beneath the slab, pushing it up from below. The pressure ensures the soil underneath the concrete is compact, which helps prevent further settling. After the voids are filled, additional mud can be injected to raise the concrete slab until it is level again. The holes are then patched to complete the repair. Mudjacking can be used to raise most exterior slabs, as well as indoor slabs such as garage floors.

About 80% of concrete needs to be mudjacked – especially in homes 20 years and newer, surprisingly, because builders typically don’t push the dirt close enough to the foundation. They pour concrete right away and it never has time to settle, so the driveway is held up on loose dirt and rebarb. Almost all mudjacking is needed within 3-5 feet from a home’s foundation because that’s where the voids exist. You need to grade around your foundation every few years!

Mudjacking is affordable driveway and concrete repair in Kansas City, but it’s seasonal: Remember that the temperature must be above 45 degrees for the mud to set right.
