Not every sunken slab fits neatly into "driveway" or "patio." Steps, curbs, small equipment pads, they settle too, and they need the same fix.

Concrete leveling is McKinney Concrete Lifting's umbrella service for any flatwork that's dropped out of grade. If it's a slab and it's uneven, this covers it. Collin County's shrink-swell clay is usually the reason, not a bad original pour.

FAQs

Concrete Leveling FAQs

How do I know if it's the foundation or just the slab settling?

Foundation issues usually show up as cracks in walls, sticking doors, or sloped floors inside the home. Isolated slab settlement outside, driveways, patios, small pads, is usually a soil issue under that specific slab, not the house foundation.

Does concrete lifting stop future settling, or just fix it once?

Lifting corrects the current dip. If the soil underneath keeps moving, it can settle again. Pairing the lift with soil stabilization addresses the cause instead of just the symptom for one job cycle.

Is mudjacking or foam better for concrete leveling?

Foam is lighter and cures faster, which suits McKinney's shifting clay better than adding heavy slurry underneath. Mudjacking can still work on large commercial pours where cost per square foot outweighs cure time.

Does insurance cover concrete leveling?

Gradual soil settlement typically isn't a covered peril on standard homeowner policies. Confirm with your carrier, but plan to budget this as an out-of-pocket repair.
