Mud jacking is a concrete or foundation repair method that is typically used in regions where the ground tends to settle, causing foundation issues. A foundation repair expert can tell you whether mud jacking is needed, a technique that basically fills in the settled area with pumped in dirt and cement mix.

Mud jacking is what you need if you have sinking or sunken concrete driveways, patios, walks, steps, or garage floors. Concrete mud jacking fill the voids under the sunken concrete areas with a slurry that’s made of clean soil and cement by forcing this grout into the voids and this lifts or raises the sunken concrete back to the correct level and the grout fills the voids and stabilizes the soil so you won’t have to worry about the concrete sinking again.
