A slab that's dropped an inch or two isn't broken, it's just settled. Terrell Concrete Lifting raises sunken patios, porches, and utility slabs back to grade without breaking up the concrete or hauling off debris.

Most slab settlement here traces back to the same cause: Kaufman County clay soil pulling moisture in and out, leaving voids the slab eventually sinks into. Terrell Concrete Lifting reads each slab on site and picks mudjacking slurry or polyurethane foam based on how it settled and what sits on top of it.

What's included

What's Included

  • Site walkthrough — we check the slab edges, measure the drop, and probe for voids underneath.
  • Method selection — mudjacking slurry for larger flat slabs, foam for tighter spots or lighter loads.
  • Drilling and injection — small holes placed in a pattern that lifts evenly, not just at one corner.
  • Patch and finish — holes get filled and troweled close to the surrounding texture.

How it works

How We Lift a Slab

  1. Site visit and slab assessment photo
    Step 1

    Assess the slab

    Check the drop, edges, and drainage direction.

  2. Void assessment photo
    Step 2

    Mark injection points

    Small holes spaced to lift the slab evenly.

  3. Port drilling photo
    Step 3

    Drill through the slab

    5/8" to 1" holes at each marked point.

  4. Foam injection photo
    Step 4

    Pump material underneath

    Slurry or foam, watched closely as the slab rises.

  5. Final walkthrough photo
    Step 5

    Check the level

    A straightedge confirms the slab meets its neighbors.

  6. Port sealing and cleanup photo
    Step 6

    Patch the holes

    Mortar or foam cap seals each entry point.

Timeline

How Long It Takes

A single sunken slab is usually a same-visit job from start to finish. Bigger jobs with multiple sections take a little longer.

  1. 01

    Assessment

    same visit.

  2. 02

    Drilling and lifting

    1–3 hours

    depending on slab size.

  3. 03

    Patch set

    a few hours before foot traffic.

  4. 04

    Full cure

FAQs

Concrete Slab Lifting FAQs

Will slab lifting fix the cracks too, or just the settling?

Lifting closes the gap and levels the surface, but it won't erase an existing crack. Some hairline cracks tighten up once the slab is supported evenly again. Wider structural cracks may need a separate patch after the lift.

How long does a lifted slab stay level?

Most lifted slabs hold their new position for years, sometimes a decade or more, depending on how the soil underneath continues to move. Clay soil that keeps shifting can cause a slab to settle again eventually, same as it did the first time.

What's the best way to lift a sunken slab without breaking it?

Injecting material underneath through small drilled holes is the standard approach. It lifts the existing slab intact instead of demolishing and repouring, which is why it costs less and finishes faster.

Is this the same thing as mudjacking?

Slab lifting is the general job. Mudjacking is one method we use to do it, alongside polyurethane foam. Which one we use depends on the slab and the soil underneath it.
