Serving Garland and nearby communities.

A sunken slab isn't a concrete problem. It's a soil problem. Dallas County clay shrinks and swells with every rain cycle, and that movement leaves voids under driveways, garage floors, and walkways across Garland's mix of older and newer subdivisions.

Garland Concrete Lifting raises the slab back to grade by filling that void from below, either with polyurethane foam or a cement-based slurry. No jackhammers, no dumpster in the driveway. Slab thickness and void depth vary by neighborhood age, so the crew checks both before picking a method.

What's included

What's Included with Concrete Lifting

Site inspection — measuring how far the slab has dropped and probing for void depth before any drilling starts.
Injection point layout — small holes marked in a pattern sized to the slab, not a one-size grid.
Foam or slurry pumping — material pumped in stages so the slab rises evenly instead of cracking.
Level verification — a laser or string line check to confirm the surface matches the surrounding grade.
Optional — joint sealant to keep water from re-entering the same void.
Customer prep — clear vehicles, planters, or furniture off the slab before the crew arrives.

FAQs

Concrete Lifting FAQs

Can you fix a sunken slab without tearing it out?

Yes. That's the whole point of lifting versus replacement. Foam or slurry goes in through small drilled holes and raises the existing slab back into place.

Will lifted concrete sink again in a few years?

It can if the underlying soil keeps moving and nothing was done to stabilize it. A properly filled void resists re-settling far longer than an unfilled one, but Dallas County clay never fully stops shifting.

How soon can I drive on my driveway after it's lifted?

Foam-lifted driveways are usually drivable the same day. Mudjacked slabs need more cure time, typically overnight before full vehicle weight.

What's the difference between mudjacking and polyurethane foam?

Mudjacking uses a cement-based slurry pumped through larger holes. Foam is lighter, cures faster, and works through smaller access points. Both raise the slab; the choice depends on slab size and access.

Do you offer free estimates for concrete lifting?

Garland Concrete Lifting looks at the slab in person and gives a written number before any work starts.
