Q: How much foundation sinking is too much?

• <div><p>Most houses are expected to settle over time, but foundation sinking of more than a few inches or uneven sinking of more than an inch for every 20 feet is cause for concern. Any significant or uneven sinking should be assessed by a professional to determine the cause and perform any necessary repairs. </p></div>

Q: Do concrete mudjacking companies need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Most states and municipalities don&rsquo;t require concrete mudjacking companies to carry a specific license, but they usually need to have a general contractor&rsquo;s license, and they should be fully insured. The only exception is if the mudjacking company provides foundation repairs as well, or if it offers mudjacking for home foundations. In that case, they will typically need a foundation repair contractor&rsquo;s license. You can check state requirements and then use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">license lookup tool</a> to confirm that a company is properly licensed to provide mudjacking services in your area.</p></div>

Q: How much does mudjacking cost?

• <div><p>The average cost for mudjacking is around $1,200, though prices can range from $300 to $3,400. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $3 and $8, with an average of about $5 per square foot. The final cost depends on several factors, including the square footage of the concrete, the type of slab, its accessibility, whether it is load-bearing, and the type of material used to lift it. Generally, lifting a driveway, small patio, or sidewalk is less expensive than lifting a slab foundation or garage floor.</p></div>

Q: How long does mudjacking take to dry and cure before the concrete can be used?

• <div><p>Mudjacking typically takes 24 to 72 hours (one to three days) to dry and cure completely before you can resume normal use. The exact time can vary depending on the size of the project. Because the slurry mixture contains cement, it must fully harden to ensure that added weight from walking, furniture, or vehicles won't shift the concrete slab. A professional contractor can advise you on when the surface is safe to use. For comparison, if you use polyjacking instead, the polyurethane foam can dry in just a few minutes, but it's best to wait about an hour before use.</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>
