Concrete Lifting

Concrete Lifting, Leveling, and Mudjacking for Garland Homes and Businesses

whyChooseUsHeading: "Why Choose Garland Concrete Lifting" Why is your driveway sinking on one side while the rest of the slab sits fine? It's almost never the concrete itself. It's the ground underneath moving.

Garland Concrete Lifting raises sunken driveways, patios, garage floors, and walkways by pumping polyurethane foam or mudjacking slurry underneath the slab. No jackhammers, no dumpster, no waiting weeks for new concrete to cure. Garland's mix of older near-downtown lots and newer subdivisions all sit on slab-on-grade construction, and that construction style is exactly what settles when Dallas County's clay soil expands and contracts with the seasons.

  • Familiar with Dallas County clay soil

    We've seen how shrink-swell clay moves slabs across Garland's subdivisions.

    We tell you exactly when the slab is safe to use again.

How it works

How our Concrete Lifting process works

  1. Site visit and slab assessment photo
    Step 1

    Site visit and slab inspection

    We walk the slab and measure how far it has settled.

  2. Method selection and plan photo
    Step 2

    Marking injection points

    Low spots get marked so lifting is targeted, not guesswork.

  3. Material injection photo
    Step 3

    Drilling access holes

    Small holes are drilled at each marked point on the slab.

  4. Lift and level check photo
    Step 4

    Pumping foam or slurry

    Material is pumped underneath until the slab lifts back to grade.

  5. Height verification photo
    Step 5

    Checking the level

    We verify the slab is flush before calling the job done.

  6. Follow-up check photo
    Step 6

    Patching and cleanup

    Holes are patched, and the work area is left clean.

Cost

Concrete Leveling and Mudjacking Cost in Garland, TX

Cost depends on three things: how big the slab is, how deep the void underneath runs, and which method fits the job. Foam and mudjacking price differently, and neither one is a flat number until we see the slab in person. Every job here starts with a free estimate. Call or request one before you commit to a number.

Project typeTypical rangeWhat’s included
Single sidewalk panel$300–$800,one or two panels leveled and patched.
Driveway section$1,200–$4,000,depends on square footage and lift height.
Full garage floor$1,500–$5,000,includes door-track clearance check.
Large patio or pool deck$2,500–$8,000,covers wider slab perimeters.

These are typical local ballparks — final cost depends on scope, materials, and site conditions. A free estimate gives you an accurate, itemized number for your home.

Materials

Polyurethane Foam and Concrete Lifting Methods We Use

We pick materials based on the slab and what's happening underneath it. Not a one-size-fits-all mix.

  • Two-part polyurethane foam photo

    Polyurethane foam injection

    Lightweight, cures in minutes, and doesn't erode the way mud can. Works well against Dallas County's shrink-swell clay cycles.

  • Cement-based mudjacking slurry photo

    Cement-based mudjacking slurry

    The traditional method, still solid for larger driveway slabs that can handle the extra weight.

  • High-density structural foam photo

    Hydraulic cement patching

    Seals the access holes fast and holds up against moisture intrusion.

  • Protective sealant photo

    Protective sealant

    Applied over patched areas to slow water penetration into the slab.

  • Hydraulic cement sealant photo

    Void-fill foam for larger gaps

    Fills bigger cavities under the slab before the finish lift, so the slab doesn't just float on a thin layer.

  • Concrete patch compound photo

    Joint sealant for finished panels

    Keeps water from working its way back into the joints after the lift.

    Called Garland Concrete Lifting after a neighbor tip in Garland. Super easy to deal with — clear answers, no runaround, and they actually cared about the details on our concrete lifting.

    Price was way more affordable than the other quotes we got for mudjacking. Still felt premium — clean jobsite, solid finish, and I'd hire them again without thinking twice.

    Honestly did not expect such a professional team. They showed up on time, explained every step, and the concrete leveling turned out better than I pictured.

Common questions

Concrete Lifting FAQs

What does it cost to lift concrete?

Most residential lifting jobs run from a few hundred dollars for a single sidewalk panel to several thousand for a full driveway or large patio. Size, void depth, and material choice all move the number.

Is it cheaper to raise concrete or replace it?

Lifting is almost always cheaper than tearing out and pouring new concrete. Replacement means demolition, disposal, forming, and cure time on top of material cost. Lifting skips most of that.

How long will concrete lifting last?

A properly lifted slab can hold for years, especially with polyurethane foam, which doesn't break down or erode the way mud can. Soil movement never fully stops in North Texas, so some slabs need a touch-up down the road.

Does insurance cover concrete lifting?

Usually not. Standard homeowners policies treat slab settlement from soil movement as a maintenance issue, not a covered peril. Some policies make exceptions for sudden events like a burst pipe. Check your specific policy language.

How much does Concrete Lifting cost in Garland?

In Garland, small jobs like sidewalk panels start in the low hundreds. Full driveways and large patios run higher depending on square footage and how deep the void under the slab runs.

How long does Concrete Lifting take?

Most residential jobs wrap up in a single visit, often a few hours. Larger driveways or full garage floors can take most of a day.

Do I need a permit for Concrete Lifting?

Most residential slab lifting is non-structural repair and doesn't require a permit. Commercial jobs or work tied to a foundation system sometimes do. Check with the city before scheduling if you're unsure.

Is DIY Concrete Lifting a good idea?

Small hairline cracks and cosmetic patches are fine to DIY. Actually lifting a slab back to grade takes pump equipment and pressure control that store-bought kits can't match, especially on larger voids.
