Can Mud Jacking Fix a Sunken Garage Floor?
Is your garage floor looking more like a downhill ramp than a level surface? A sunken garage floor is more than an eyesore—it can cause serious structural issues, drainage problems, and even safety hazards.
Let’s talk about why it happens and how mud jacking can help.
Why Garage Floors Sink
A few common causes of settling or sinking garage floors:
Erosion under the slab from water runoff or poor drainage
Improper soil compaction during original construction
Heavy loads, especially from vehicles or storage
Over time, gaps form under the concrete, causing the slab to sink or crack.
How Mud Jacking Repairs a Garage Floor
Mud jacking is a process that lifts your sunken concrete back into place by:
Drilling small holes in the slab.
Pumping in a special slurry mix (usually sand, soil, and cement).
Raising the slab evenly to its original height.
Sealing the holes and cleaning up.
It’s fast, non-invasive, and highly effective.
Alternative Options
You could tear out and replace the entire garage floor—but that comes with a high cost, long downtime, and lots of mess.
Another option is polyurethane foam lifting, which is more expensive and sometimes overkill for residential garage issues.
Mud jacking is often the best balance of cost, speed, and effectiveness.
