Mudjacking in Regina: A Better Solution

In Regina, a massive percentage of home and business owners will experience the frustrations of sunken, cracked concrete. Until recently, the most common solution in Regina has been mudjacking.  We live in a place that is notorious for problems arising out of the fact that the ground constantly settles and shifts. On top of that, Regina experiences some of the harshest temperature fluctuations in North America so it’s no surprise that we see an epidemic of concrete issues in this area.

What Is Mudjacking?

When the sub grade under a concrete structure settles or sinks, this creates a void.  The void made it so that there was no supporting ground underneath the concrete structure.  Concrete is very dense and very heavy and without that supporting soil it will inevitably start to buckle under it’s own weight.  This is what typically causes sunken and cracked concrete.  The most common way to fix this problem in Regina has been mudjacking.

Mudjacking is the process of pumping concrete under a concrete structure such as a driveway, walkway, patio or slab in order to fill the empty void and lift it.  It is typically done a few different ways.  One method is digging out the surrounding ground to expose the void under the concrete and jacking the structure back into it’s proper place.  From there, workers will pump fresh concrete into the  void to support the existing structure.  The other method is drilling numerous large holes into the sunken concrete structure and injecting concrete into the void.

With all of this mind, consider the state of the soil in Regina and ask yourself the following question. Is adding even more weight to the already weak soil going to solve the problem or just make it worse down the road?  The answer is obvious and this is exactly what we see over and over again throughout Regina.  Mudjacking is a temporary band-aid which inevitably makes things worse down the road.  All of this ads up to more frustration, stress and expense for you the home owner.

A Better Alternative to Mudjacking in Regina

In large cities throughout North America a process known as foam jacking has become the go-to standard for sunken concrete repair.  Traditional mudjacking is, in most cases, considered totally outdated and ineffectual when compared to foam jacking.  The advantages of foam jacking over mudjacking are so numerous that there really is no comparison between the two:

high-density polyurethane foam is over 25 times lighter than concrete.  That means less stress on an already failed subgrade.

it's typically 50% cheaper than mudjacking

it's a long term solution and not a temporary band aid

little to no damage to existing concrete or landscaping

it requires 60% fewer drill holes

the drill holes are only 5/8" VS 2" hole with mudjacking.  That's almost 4 times smaller.

As you can probably tell, it is only a matter of time until mudjacking in Regina becomes a thing of the past.  For most situations that require concrete lifting and support, mudjacking simply cannot compete with foam jacking as a viable, long-term solution.  Foam jacking is becoming, and will inevitably become, the only solution to this pervasive problem in Regina.

Rave Reviews For Spray Pros

"We had some work done on our garage slab, and Steve and his guys did a great job. I requested a quote and I was amazed by how fast I got a response, in less than an hour Steve called me and asked if he could stop by to take a look to give me a quote. The job was done just last week, and I can say that I would recommend Spray Pros' service with a 5 stars ranking. Great Job Steve and company."

"We recently utilized the services of Spray Pros Regina. Our driveway had sunk 2 inches at the city sidewalk, continuing up the driveway and the sidewalk to our front door over the water/ sewer service entrance.
My first contact with Steve was when I reached him for a quote. My first impressions were that he knows his business and the final results confirmed it.
He was prompt in quoting the jobs (my neighbors had theirs done at the same time) and there were no surprises or add-ons for void fill or extras when we were invoiced. Both jobs were as quoted.
We are all very pleased with the end results. No mess, no large holes. Great that we could drive on it that day as street parking is very limited. We are also pleased with the warranty they have on the work performed.
As a side note, Steve stopped by my workplace to inform me there were unhappy bumble bees that were displaced from their under slab home and to be careful when we got home. What a great testament to his character. I highly recommend the services of Spray Pros and will gladly have Steve use us as reference for anyone who wants to see the finished job."
