WHY CHARLOTTE SLABS SINK

Piedmont clay, summer storms,
sinking patios.

Charlotte’s red clay drains slowly, and new-build lots often sit on backfill that was never fully compacted. A few hard storms and the patio or walk tips toward the house.

Where to look first: Walks and patios on newer lots, especially next to the foundation.

We list 8 crews here, each one checked on its own site for concrete lifting in Charlotte. 7 do foam, 1 do mudjacking. Coverage reaches Huntersville, Concord, Lake Norman, Rock Hill, Fort Mill, Gastonia.

COMMON SURFACES

What sinks, and what to ask

If the slab is cracked into pieces or crumbling, lifting won’t save it. If it’s whole but sunk, it usually can be lifted.

01

Driveways

Usually the apron at the garage drops first. Ask if they’ll seal the joints afterward, because that’s where water gets in.

02

Sidewalks

A 1-inch trip edge is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Ask how many panels they’ll lift to make it flush.

03

Patios

A patio tipped toward the house sends rain at your foundation. Ask them to set it back to slope away.

04

Garage floors

Foam works well here: small holes and you can park on it the same day. Crack repair is usually extra.

05

Steps & stoops

A stoop pulling away from the house is common, and heavy. Ask whether they lift it whole or need to anchor it.

A QUICK METHOD CHECK

Mudjacking or
polyjacking?

Mud is cheaper and heavier. Foam costs more, leaves smaller holes and you can drive on it the same day. Neither one fixes bad drainage.

Mudjacking

Cement slurry pumped through 1–2 in. holes. Usually $4–$9 per sq. ft. nationally.
