Concrete Lifting
Concrete Lifting and Mudjacking for Homes and Businesses in Richardson, TX
Sunken driveway? Cracked sidewalk edge? Chances are your slab isn't broken. It just lost the ground under it. Richardson Concrete Lifting provides poly foam injection and mudjacking to raise sunken concrete back to grade, without tearing out the slab and starting over.
Richardson sits on North Texas clay soil, the kind that shrinks in dry months and swells after rain. That cycle is why so many decades-old slab homes here show settling around driveways, patios, and walkways. It's not usually a sign your foundation is failing, just soil doing what clay soil does.

Why choose us
Why choose Richardson Concrete Lifting
Method matched to the slab, not a one-size quote
We check void size, slab load, and access before recommending poly foam or mudjacking, not the other way around.
Written estimates before any drilling starts
You see the scope and the price range in writing. No surprise add-ons once the truck is in the driveway.
Local crew, not a call center dispatch
Richardson Concrete Lifting sends the same team that quoted the job, not a rotating sub from three counties over.
No full slab replacement pitch
If lifting solves it, we say so. Replacement gets recommended only when lifting genuinely won't hold.

How our Concrete Lifting process works
Step 1Site visit and inspection
We measure the slab, check void depth, and note drainage issues on site.
Step 2Method selection
We choose poly foam or mudjacking based on slab size and soil condition.
Step 3Drilling access holes
Small holes go in at marked points, sized to the chosen lift method.
Step 4Injection and lift
Material pumps in slowly while we monitor the slab rising to grade.
Step 5Patch and cleanup
Holes get patched, the site gets swept, and the area is left walkable.
Step 6Follow-up check
We confirm the slab held level and answer any questions after the cure.

Concrete Lifting Cost in Richardson, TX
Cost depends on the method and square footage involved. Poly foam runs higher per square foot but cures fast and uses less material. Mudjacking often wins on price for large slabs that need more fill volume. Free estimates give you the exact number for your slab, not a guess off a phone call.
| Project type | Typical range | What’s included |
|---|---|---|
| Small spot lift (poly foam) | $300–$800, | single trip hazard or hairline gap fix. |
| Driveway section (mudjacking) | $800–$2,500, | larger slab needing slurry fill. |
| Full driveway leveling | $1,500–$5,000, | depending on square footage and access. |
| Foundation void fill | $1,000–$4,000, | perimeter injection around a foundation line. |
| Patio or pool deck leveling | $600–$2,200, | depending on deck size and drainage work. |
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 and Methods We Use
We don't push one product for every job. Here's what actually goes into the ground.
Two-part expanding polyurethane foam
Lightweight, moisture-resistant, and fast-curing. It's the go-to for slabs near the house where extra weight risks kicking off new settlement in Richardson's clay soil.
Cementitious/soil slurry mix
A denser fill for mudjacking large slabs. Costs less to pump in bulk, which matters on bigger driveways in Richardson's older neighborhoods.
Void-fill flowable grout
Self-leveling grout that flows into odd-shaped gaps under a foundation perimeter, filling voids the injection foam can't always reach.
Hydraulic injection pump equipment
Controls pressure and lift speed so the slab rises evenly instead of tilting one direction.
Joint sealant
Seals patched drill holes against moisture intrusion, which matters where clay soil holds water after rain.
Diamond grinding
For minor trip-height differences where grinding down a lip beats injecting material underneath.

5 out of 5 starsPrice was way more affordable than the other quotes we got for sidewalk repair. Still felt premium — clean jobsite, solid finish, and I'd hire them again without thinking twice.

Common questions
Concrete Lifting FAQs
What does it cost to lift concrete?
Most residential jobs run a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on square footage and method. Poly foam costs more per square foot but uses less material. Mudjacking often costs less upfront on larger slabs.
Is concrete lifting a good idea?
Yes, for most sunken slabs caused by soil settling rather than structural failure. It costs less than replacement and finishes in hours, not days.
How long will concrete lifting last?
A properly lifted slab can hold for many years. Soil movement never fully stops in North Texas clay, so occasional touch-ups on the same spot aren't unusual, but that beats tearing out concrete every time.
How much does concrete lifting cost in Richardson?
Ballpark ranges run from a few hundred dollars for a small spot lift to several thousand for a full driveway or foundation void fill. Get a free estimate for an exact number on your slab.
How long does concrete lifting take?
Most residential lifts finish in a single visit, often 2 to 6 hours depending on scope. Cure time before full use adds another hour to a day.
Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?
Usually not for private driveway, patio, or garage floor lifting. Public sidewalk panels or work touching the street curb often need city sign-off. Check with the City of Richardson before scheduling.
Is DIY concrete lifting a good idea?
DIY foam kits work for hairline gaps and cosmetic fixes. Anything requiring even lift across a slab needs pro equipment, since uncontrolled pressure tends to re-tilt the surface.
