Can mudjacking damage my foundation?

• <div><p>Mudjacking is usually reserved for light-duty slabs, like patios, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-concrete-driveway-cost.htm">driveways</a>, and sidewalks. However, it can be an effective way to lift garage slabs and concrete around the perimeter of the home, which could harm your foundation if it’s not done properly. The risk of damage is why having a professional mudjacking company carry out the work is important. This type of slab or foundation repair is relatively inexpensive, especially if you consider that a DIY job requires that you pay to rent the necessary equipment.</p></div>

Does expanding foam lift concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, expanding foam (also known as polyurethane foam) can lift concrete. This approach, called polyjacking, involves injecting the foam rather than concrete slurry to fill voids and raise the concrete slab back into place. It’s often faster and requires smaller drill holes than traditional mudjacking, though it may come at a higher cost. Some contractors also prefer <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/mudjacking-vs-polyjacking.htm">polyjacking over mudjacking</a> for more damaged and delicate slabs.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to complete the mudjacking process?

• <div><p>The timeframe is generally a few hours, allowing for immediate use post-hydration, ensuring minimal disruption to surrounding activities.</p></div>

Q: What is the best underpinning method?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, push piers&mdash;or steel piers&mdash;are the best option for underpinning, as they reach down to solid bedrock to find support for your foundation rather than relying on soil, which could be subject to the same issues as the soil directly below your foundation. However, the best underpinning method for your home depends on your location, how far down the bedrock is, and the type of soil in your area. Helical piers are usually the best option for sandy soil or in areas where the bedrock is too deep to use steel piers. </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>

I highly recommend Mitchell Masonry. Brent is very knowledgeable and does excellent work. Had new flashing installed as well as tuck pointing on my chimney. The concrete crown he installed on the chimney is a huge improvement over the original and looks great.
