Slab Jacking in Corpus Christi

Not every sunken slab needs tearing out. Slab jacking lifts settled concrete — driveways, patios, walkways, pool decks — back into place by pumping material underneath. It’s faster, cleaner, and far less disruptive than replacement.

Good Candidates for Slab Jacking

Driveway sections that have dropped or separated
Patios and pool decks sloping toward the house
Walkways with trip hazards from uneven joints
Garage floors with low spots holding water.

If the concrete itself is in decent shape and the problem is settlement underneath, jacking is usually the smart fix.

How It Works

Small holes are drilled through the slab, lifting material is pumped beneath to fill voids and raise the concrete, then the holes are sealed. Most jobs are done in hours, and the surface is usable again quickly — no week-long cure like a full replacement.

Why Slabs Sink in Corpus Christi

Same culprit as always: our clay soil. It shrinks in dry spells, leaving voids under flatwork; poor drainage washes fines out from beneath; and heavy Gulf rains can erode support fast. Jacking restores the elevation — and we flag drainage issues so it stays there.

FAQs

If the slab is structurally sound and just settled, jacking wins on cost, speed, and disruption. Badly cracked or crumbled concrete is a replacement candidate — we’ll tell you honestly which one you’re looking at.

When the underlying cause (usually water or voids) is addressed, lifted slabs stay put for years.

The lifted slab is your original concrete — the small drill holes are sealed to blend in.
