Service · Mudjacking vs Polyjacking

Mudjacking vs polyjacking. We quote both.

Both raise concrete by filling the void under the slab. Mudjacking pumps a cement-based slurry. Polyjacking pumps expanding polyurethane foam. The right one depends on the slab, access, lift height, and who can get there. Not a brand fight.

What this service does

A practical fix for settled concrete.

Both raise concrete by filling the void under the slab.

Mudjacking pumps a cement-based slurry.

Mudjacking

Mudjacking

Economical on larger lifts. Sound slabs. Standard access. Drill holes, pump, lift, patch.

Polyjacking

Polyjacking

Lighter material. Often smaller holes. Tight access or a slab where extra weight is a problem. A specialist has to say if foam is the better fit.

Honest split

Honest split

Neither is always better. Foam is not a miracle. Slurry is not old junk. Wisconsin freeze-thaw punishes a bad lift either way. Over-lifting cracks a slab in both methods.

We match you with independent contractors who do mud, foam, or both. You are not buying a one-method pitch from this site.

Replacement

Don't lift junk.

Crumbling, too thin, or you already wanted a new layout. Then pour.

When replacement is discussed

  • Crumbling concrete
  • Too thin to lift

When leveling makes sense

Mudjacking / Leveling

  • Sound slabs with settlement, not crumbling
  • Mudjacking when the lift is larger and access is standard
  • Foam when holes need to stay small or extra weight is a problem

Mudjacking vs Polyjacking FAQs

Common questions.

Straight answers before you request a quote.

Ask your question →
01 Is polyurethane foam better than mudjacking? +
Each has trade-offs. Foam can use smaller holes and lighter material. Slurry can be cost-effective on larger lifts. A contractor matches the method to your slab rather than selling a single solution.
02 When should concrete be replaced instead of raised? +
When it's crumbling, heavily cracked, or structurally compromised. Raising works when the slab is mostly intact and settlement is the core issue.
