Allen's expansive clay soil doesn't just move small slabs, it moves the big, heavy ones too. Mudjacking is the traditional fix for that: pump a cement-based slurry under a sunken slab, and it lifts back to grade.
It's a proven method that's been around for decades, and it's still the right call for heavier concrete like garage floors and thick patios. Allen Concrete Lifting uses it where the load calls for more than foam alone.

FAQs
Mudjacking / Slabjacking FAQs
What tool can I use to lift a concrete slab?
Professionals use a slurry pump connected to drilled injection holes. Homeowner-grade rental pumps exist, but they're hard to control on uneven voids without cracking the slab.
Is polyurethane foam better than mudjacking for expansive clay soil?
Foam is lighter and cures faster, which suits smaller slabs. Mudjacking carries more weight, which is actually the better fit for heavier concrete like garage floors that need a denser fill under them.
How long does mudjacking last?
As long as the soil beneath stays reasonably stable, a mudjacked slab typically holds for years. It's a durable, time-tested method.
Do I need a permit for mudjacking?
Most residential slab repair doesn't require one. It's repair work on existing concrete, not new construction.
Is mudjacking messier than foam injection?
A little. Slurry can leave minor residue near the injection points, but cleanup is part of the job and the site is left presentable.
