Mudjacking is a concrete leveling process where a slurry mix is pumped under sunken slabs to lift them back to level. It's cost-effective and eco-friendly.

How long does mudjacking last?

What’s the Difference — and Which One Is Right for You?

If you’ve got sinking concrete, you’ve probably come across two common terms: mudjacking and poly leveling (also called polyjacking or foam lifting). Both are methods of concrete lifting and slabjacking, but they use different materials and come with different costs, pros, and cons.

Here’s what you really need to know — in plain language.

Why We Chose Mudjacking, And Stick With It

We’ve seen both methods in action.
Here’s why Fox Valley Mudjacking sticks with cement-based mudjacking:

It’s more affordable for homeowners
It’s eco-friendly (no synthetic foam or chemicals)
It works better on heavy slabs like garage floors, patios, and steps
It’s easy to patch and blend with existing concrete
It’s a time-tested process that’s worked for decades
It allows for better void filling and concrete stabilization

What Is Mudjacking?

Mudjacking is the method we use here at Fox Valley Mudjacking.
It involves drilling small holes into the concrete slab, then pumping in a natural cement-based slurry that fills empty spaces and lifts the slab back into place. It’s a trusted way to fix:

Driveways
Sidewalks & Walkways
Patios & Porches
Steps & Pool Decks
Garage Floors
Concrete Slabs around homes and businesses

Learn how it works on our Concrete Leveling Process page.

What Is Poly Leveling?

Poly leveling (also called polyjacking or foam jacking) uses a similar method — but instead of a cement slurry, it pumps a polyurethane foam under the slab. This foam expands to fill voids and lift the concrete.

It’s often marketed as a newer or “more high-tech” method. But newer doesn’t always mean better — especially when it comes to affordability, eco-friendliness, and long-term results.

Mudjacking is still the time-tested and proven method for lifting and leveling concrete. Poly foam is just nice for the business owner since their prices and profit margins are higher. But if you’re looking for an affordable and dependable way to fix your uneven concrete, mudjacking is your solution!
