Driveways take the brunt of Richardson's clay soil movement. They're big, they sit at grade, and their edges are exposed to whatever moisture the ground holds onto. That combination makes them some of the first slabs on a property to show a sinking corner or a low apron near the street.
Driveway repair through lifting raises the sunken section back to where it belongs, no jackhammer required. Richardson Concrete Lifting checks the drop, picks a lift method suited to the slab's size and location, and gets your driveway level again in a single visit.

Materials
Materials and Methods for Driveway Repair
Driveway sections come in different sizes, so the fix depends on how much volume needs filling.
Two-part polyurethane foam
lightweight and fast-curing, a good match for smaller driveway sections near the garage where added weight isn't ideal on shifting clay.
Cement and soil slurry mix
better suited to large driveway slabs needing more fill volume, often the lower-cost choice per square foot.
Hydraulic injection pump
controls the pressure and rate of material going under the slab, keeping the lift even across a wide driveway.

FAQs
Driveway Repair FAQs
Why is my driveway sinking on one side?
Usually it's the clay soil underneath shrinking in dry weather, then swelling unevenly after rain. One side of the slab sits on soil that's moved more than the other, so that side settles lower.
How much does it cost to level a sunken driveway?
Costs depend on square footage and the method used. Small spot lifts with foam run less overall but cost more per square foot; full driveway slurry jobs cost more overall but less per square foot. We give an exact range after seeing the slab.
Do you need to dig up the driveway to lift it?
No. Both foam and slurry methods work through small drilled holes. No excavation, no demo.
How long before I can park on my driveway again?
Foam lifts are usually drivable the same day, often within a few hours. Slurry lifts need about 24 hours to reach full weight-bearing strength.
Does a sinking driveway mean my foundation is at risk?
Not necessarily. Driveways often settle independently of the house foundation since they're a separate slab with different edge exposure. Still, if you're seeing similar issues near the house itself, worth having that checked too.
