Slab Lifting and Leveling (Slab Jacking)

What Causes a Concrete Slab to Sink

A sunken slab is usually a symptom of soil movement beneath it, not a defect in the concrete itself. Central Texas's expansive clay soil swells and shrinks with the seasons, and when it shifts unevenly, the slab settles with it.

We lift and level the slab by driving steel push piers to load-bearing strata below the reactive soil layer, restabilizing it rather than just patching the surface. The goal is your slab's maximum practical level, not a promise of a return to original grade.

Scope-based pricing

Cost depends on the number of piers needed and how far the slab has settled. You'll get a written, fixed-price quote after a free inspection.

When this isn't the fix

If drainage around the slab isn't addressed, the same settlement can recur. We'll flag any drainage issues we find during your inspection.

02 · How it works

What to expect, start to finish

A clear path from first look to finished repair.

01

Free inspection

We document the settlement pattern and measure slab levels room to room.

02

Cause assessment

We confirm settlement, not another issue, is driving the slab movement.

03

Pier layout

Piers are spaced along perimeter and interior load points per the settlement map.

04

Installation

Steel push piers are driven hydraulically to load-bearing strata.

05

Lift & finish

The slab is lifted to its maximum practical level and access points patched.

"The mistake people make is treating a symptom as the problem. We diagnose why a foundation moved before we decide how to stabilize it, then stand behind the work with a warranty tied to what the piers actually reached."

The difference is in the diagnosis

Get several quotes and you'll see a wide range of prices. The gap isn't luck, it's whether the contractor finds the actual cause and stands behind the work.

Frequently asked questions

What is slab jacking and how does it work?

It lifts and levels sunken concrete by driving support down to load-bearing soil, restabilizing the slab.

How long does slab leveling last?

When stabilized to load-bearing strata with a properly installed pier system, the fix is designed to last, backed by our tiered warranty based on pier load capacity.

Is slab leveling better than replacement?

In most cases yes, it's less disruptive and addresses the underlying settlement rather than just the surface.

Can this be done on driveways and patios?

Our focus is structural foundation slabs; ask during your free inspection about scope for other concrete.

What is the cost of slab leveling?

Cost depends on the number of piers needed. You'll get a written quote after a free on-site inspection.
