Richardson's built-out streets carry a lot of decades-old driveway slabs, and mudjacking is still the go-to fix for the bigger ones. It's a cement-and-soil slurry pumped under the slab through drilled holes until the concrete floats back up to grade.
The mix has weight to it, which is actually the point on a large driveway section. Richardson Concrete Lifting reaches for mudjacking when there's a lot of volume to fill and the budget favors a lower cost per square foot over the lighter, pricier foam option.

Mudjacking FAQs
Will mudjacking fix a sunken sidewalk permanently or does it come back?
It restores the slab and holds well for years. If the clay soil underneath keeps shrinking and swelling, that same spot can eventually need another lift. It's not a guarantee against Richardson's soil movement, just a solid fix for what's happened so far.
What's the difference between mudjacking and polyurethane foam lifting?
Mudjacking uses a heavier cement slurry pumped through larger holes. Foam uses a lightweight expanding material through smaller holes. Mudjacking often costs less per square foot on big slabs; foam cures faster and weighs less.
Is mudjacking cheaper than foam lifting?
Usually, yes, for larger slabs. Foam runs higher per square foot but uses less material and finishes faster.
Do I need to move my car during mudjacking?
And plan on leaving it off the driveway for about 24 hours after the pour while the mix sets enough to bear weight.
Can mudjacking be used on a garage floor?
It can, though foam is often preferred right at the house threshold because it's easier to control precisely near a structure.
