Driveway leveling covers sunken slab sections, tilted approach aprons, and the trip lip that shows up where the driveway meets the garage slab. McKinney Concrete Lifting handles single panels and full-width sections.

New McKinney subdivisions get built fast on graded fill, and driveways often settle within the first few years while the ground finishes compacting. Foam injection lifts the affected panels back to grade without tearing out and repouring concrete.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Driveway Leveling

McKinney's clay soil shrinks and swells with rain cycles, and driveways take the brunt of that movement since they sit exposed to the weather.

  • Two-part polyurethane foam photo

    High-density polyurethane foam

    rated for vehicle traffic, it fills the void without adding the extra weight that can restart settlement on shifting clay.

  • Cement-based slurry (mudjacking mix) photo

    Flexible polyurethane joint sealant

    keeps water out of expansion joints, which limits how much moisture reaches the soil under the slab.

  • Structural fill grout photo

    Polymer-modified patch compound

    seals the injection holes with a finish that matches the surrounding concrete and resists cracking.

FAQs

Driveway Leveling FAQs

Why is my new driveway already cracking and sinking?

Most new McKinney driveways sit on recently graded fill soil. That soil keeps settling for a few years after construction, and uneven settlement is what causes the cracks and dips, not a bad concrete pour.

How long do I have to stay off a lifted driveway?

Foam cures fast. Most driveways are drivable again within a couple hours of the injection, once the foam has set.

Do I need a permit for driveway leveling?

Private driveway slabs usually don't need a permit. If the settlement reaches into the public right-of-way or the street apron, check with the city first.

What does driveway leveling cost?

Cost depends on square footage and how deep the void is. Ask for a free estimate and we'll walk the slab with you before quoting.
