A sunken slab doesn't fix itself. Once a section of driveway, walkway, or patio drops below grade, water starts pooling in the wrong direction and the edge becomes a trip hazard.

Plano Concrete Lifting raises that slab back to level without tearing it out. Plano's expansive clay soil moves with every wet season and dry spell, which is why so many slabs here settle unevenly even when the concrete itself is in good shape.

What's included

What's Included with Concrete Lifting

Typically included: elevation check across the affected slab, drilling small injection holes, pumping mudjacking slurry or polyurethane foam beneath the panel, verifying level with a straightedge, and patching the holes.

Optional: joint resealing after the lift, drainage slope correction on the same visit.

Customer prep: clear furniture, planters, or parked vehicles off the slab before the crew arrives.

How it works

How Our Concrete Lifting Process Works

  1. Site visit and assessment photo
    Step 1

    Site visit and elevation survey

    Measure how far the slab has dropped and where.

  2. Method selection photo
    Step 2

    Void and soil check

    Confirm there's an actual gap under the concrete, not just a surface crack.

  3. Drilling access points photo
    Step 3

    Drilling injection holes

    Small dime-to-quarter sized holes placed in a pattern.

  4. Material injection photo
    Step 4

    Pumping the lifting material

    Slurry or foam, chosen by slab type and load.

  5. Void fill confirmation photo
    Step 5

    Checking level

    Straightedge and gauge confirm the panel sits flush again.

    Patching and sealing

    Holes get filled and joints resealed same visit.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Concrete Lifting

Plano Concrete Lifting picks the method to match the job, not the other way around.

  • Cement-based slurry (mudjacking mix) photo

    Mudjacking slurry

    a soil, cement, and sand mix pumped under heavier slabs. It's a proven fix for larger driveway and patio sections settling into Plano's clay subgrade.

  • Two-part polyurethane foam photo

    Two-part polyurethane foam

    lightweight, expands fast, and resists moisture better than slurry, useful where clay has already lost load-bearing strength.

  • Hydraulic cement patch photo

    Hydraulic cement patch

    seals the injection holes so the surface looks finished, not drilled.

FAQs

Concrete Lifting FAQs

How much should concrete lifting cost?

Cost depends on slab size, method, and how deep the void runs. Small panel lifts start lower; large driveway sections cost more. Ask for a free estimate for a real number.

Is it cheaper to raise concrete or replace it?

Lifting is almost always cheaper than a tear-out and repour. You keep the existing concrete and skip demolition, hauling, and new-slab curing time.

How long does concrete lifting take?

Most jobs finish in a single visit, from a few hours for a small area up to a full day for a large driveway or patio.

Do I need a permit for concrete lifting?

Releveling an existing slab with no size change usually doesn't need a permit. Structural work or new pours typically do. Check with the City of Plano before scheduling.

Is DIY concrete lifting a good idea?

Bagged leveling compound can hide a cosmetic dip. It won't fill a real void under the slab, and the dip usually comes back within a season.
