Q: Can I do my own concrete mudjacking?

We strongly recommend against mudjacking any load-bearing slab, as you could easily cause irreversible structural damage to your property if you make a mistake. This is one job where paying for a professional is worthwhile.</p></div>

Q: How much does mudjacking cost?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-mudjacking-cost.htm">cost of mudjacking</a> is around <b>$5</b> <b>per square foot</b> of concrete, with most concrete leveling jobs totaling between <b>$3 and $8</b> <b>per square foot</b>. The typical cost to fix a sinking portion of concrete slab with mudjacking is around <b>$1,100</b>. The price you&rsquo;ll pay depends on the size of the concrete slab you need to be leveled, the accessibility of the slab, and the type of material your contractor uses beneath the concrete to lift it back into place.</p></div>

Q: Is there an alternative to underpinning?

• <div><p>There is no real alternative to underpinning, although mudjacking and polyjacking are other repair methods that can add support from underneath your foundation. Rather than placing supportive piers under your structure, these involve pumping a material under your slab to lift a sunken section back into its original position. Polyjacking, in particular, is sometimes a suitable solution for stabilization issues under slab foundations, but underpinning is often accepted as the best and most permanent solution.</p></div>

Q: How long does mudjacking take to dry?

• <div><p>Mudjacking normally takes between one to three days to dry completely. The larger the project area, the more time it will take to dry. You should not walk on the concrete or place furniture or vehicles on the lifted concrete until it&rsquo;s completely cured, which a pro can help determine. If you&rsquo;re polyjacking instead, the polyurethane foam can take just a few minutes to dry, but wait an hour to be sure.</p></div>

Q: Can mudjacking be done in winter?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best not to perform mudjacking in the winter unless the ground temperature remains above freezing. Freezing temperatures can cause the slurry to harden too quickly, compromising its strength and longevity. Concrete is also more susceptible to cracking and splitting in cold temperatures, so there&rsquo;s a higher risk of damaging the slab during the drilling and lifting process in winter. </p></div>
