How Long Does Mud Jacking Last?
Mud jacking is one of the most popular concrete repair solutions out there. But is it just a temporary fix, or does it really last?
Let’s explore how durable mud jacking is and what affects its lifespan.
Average Lifespan of Mud Jacking Repairs
When done properly, mud jacking can last 10 years or more.
The key is using high-quality materials and making sure the soil under the concrete is stable. Many homeowners enjoy decade-long results before needing any touch-up or maintenance.
What Affects the Lifespan?
A few things can shorten or extend the life of your repair:
Soil condition: If the soil under your slab continues to erode or shift, the slab could settle again.
Water drainage: Standing water or poor drainage around your concrete can wash away supporting soil.
Installation quality: Sloppy workmanship leads to quicker failures. Always work with experienced pros.
Heavy use: Driveways or garage slabs with lots of heavy traffic may wear out faster.
Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your Mud Jacking Repair
Keep gutters and downspouts clear and directed away from concrete.
Slope soil away from your foundation to improve drainage.
Avoid parking large trucks or machinery on repaired surfaces for long periods.
