Concrete Lifting

Concrete Lifting and Mudjacking Terrell TX for Homes and Businesses

Sunken slabs and cracked driveways are common around Terrell. Kaufman County sits on expansive clay soil that swells and shrinks with rain, and that movement pushes older slabs down at the edges over time.

Terrell Concrete Lifting handles it with two proven methods: cement-based mudjacking and polyurethane foam injection. We pick the one that fits your slab, your soil, and your budget, then get it level again without tearing anything out.

Why choose us

Why choose Terrell Concrete Lifting

  • Method matched to your slab

    We pick mudjacking or foam based on slab type and soil condition, not a one-size answer.

  • Same crew, start to finish

    The person who quotes the job is the one drilling and patching it.

  • Written estimate before drilling

    You see the number before any hole goes in the concrete.

  • Cleanup is part of the job

    Slurry and foam overspray get cleaned up before we leave, not left for you to hose off.

Materials

Concrete Raising and Mudjacking Methods in Terrell TX

Clay soil moves. The right material choice matters more here than in sandier ground.

  • Two-part polyurethane foam photo

    Cement-based mudjacking slurry

    A traditional mix pumped under the slab to fill voids and raise it. Costs less per square foot, works well on driveways and larger slabs.

  • Cement-based mudjacking slurry photo

    Polyurethane foam injection

    Lightweight expanding foam, cures fast and adds less weight to soil that's already settling. Good fit for garage floors and pool decks.

  • High-density structural foam photo

    Hydraulic lift pumps

    Controlled pressure equipment that raises the slab evenly instead of in one spot.

  • Hydraulic pump equipment photo

    Slab penetration drilling (5/8" to 1" holes)

    Small holes placed at planned points, sized to the method and slab thickness.

  • Hydraulic cement sealant photo

    Hole patch mortar

    Fills and seals every drilled entry point flush with the surrounding surface.

  • Drainage-grade backfill photo

    Joint sealant for driveways and sidewalks

    Reapplied after the lift so water sheds away from the slab instead of washing soil back out.

    Price was way more affordable than the other quotes we got for concrete lifting. 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 garage floor repair turned out better than I pictured.

    Called Terrell Concrete Lifting after a neighbor tip in Terrell. Super easy to deal with — clear answers, no runaround, and they actually cared about the details on our sidewalk repair & leveling.

Common questions

Concrete Lifting FAQs

How long does slab jacking last?

A properly lifted slab on stable fill can hold for many years. On expansive clay, some slabs need a touch-up lift sooner if the soil keeps moving underneath. Mudjacking and foam both hold up, but neither stops soil movement itself.

What is the best way to lift a concrete slab?

For most homeowner slabs, mudjacking or polyurethane foam injection both work well. Foam is lighter and faster to cure, slurry costs less per square foot. The right pick depends on slab size, access, and budget.

What is a good tool to lift concrete?

A hydraulic pump paired with an injection gun is the standard tool for controlled, even lifting. Rental kits exist for small DIY jobs, but they don't give the same pressure control a pro pump does.

How much does concrete lifting cost in Terrell?

Small sections run $300 to $800. A single driveway or garage floor typically runs $800 to $2,000. Larger multi-slab jobs can run $2,000 to $5,000 or more depending on injection points and material volume.

How long does concrete lifting take?

Most single-slab jobs finish in a few hours, same visit. Larger driveways or multi-slab jobs might take most of a day. Patch cure time adds a few more hours before the slab is ready for full use.

Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?

Most lifting jobs are non-structural repair on existing concrete, so they usually don't need a permit. Structural work or new pours are a different story. Check with Kaufman County or the city before starting if you're unsure.

Is DIY concrete lifting a good idea?

Rental kits can patch a small cosmetic dip, but clay soil punishes uneven pressure. A slab lifted unevenly by hand often re-settles faster than one lifted with a pump crew that reads slab thickness and rebar placement.
