Some contractors recommend and use cinder in the sunken parts of a reinforced cement concrete slab. Others caution against it in construction where a lot of seepage can occur because cinder can have a tendency to retain the water.

How do I know if my concrete repair job requires mud jacking?

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.


What does it mean if you have cracked cement on your basement floor?

It's very common, and simply means that the land has settled slightly. There are many ways to fix this, depending on the width and length of the cracks. Sealing the cracks is easy and there are many new materials to do this. - Raising the sunken part is also an option, but expensive. In this case concrete is pumped in under the sunken part to raise it. I would get an expert to inspect and give you an appraisal.
