Question 1

How much does concrete lifting cost in Matthews, NC?

Accepted Answer

In Matthews, NC, concrete lifting typically costs $6 to $14 per square foot for polyurethane foam and $4 to $8 per square foot for mudjacking, depending on lift height, access, and slab size. A standard sunken driveway apron (about 100 sq ft) usually falls between $600 and $1,400. We provide free written estimates for every Matthews-area project — call (980) 246-2704.

Question 2

How long does concrete lifting take in Matthews?

Accepted Answer

Most residential lifting jobs in Matthews take 1–3 hours from arrival to drive-away. Polyurethane foam cures in 15 minutes and reaches 90% strength in an hour — the slab is drivable the same day. Mudjacking cures over 24 hours, so we schedule a return check if needed. No multi-day disruption on typical driveway or sidewalk jobs.

Question 3

Are you licensed and insured to lift concrete in North Carolina?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Matthews Concrete Lifting is fully licensed in North Carolina and carries comprehensive general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. We provide proof of insurance and licensing upon request before any Matthews project begins.

Question 4

What is the difference between polyurethane foam lifting and mudjacking?

Accepted Answer

Polyurethane foam is the modern method — two-part high-density foam pumped through 3/8-inch ports, cures in 15 minutes, closed-cell and waterproof. Mudjacking uses a portland cement and sand slurry pumped through 1-2 inch ports, cures over 24 hours, and typically costs 30-50% less per square foot. We use whichever is right for the site conditions and lift requirements — no method is universally better.

Question 5

Can you lift a cracked slab, or does it need to be replaced?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the severity. Hairline cracks and simple settling almost always lift successfully. Cracks caused by structural failure, spalling beyond rescue, or a slab that's broken into multiple pieces usually need replacement. We assess every Matthews slab honestly — if lifting isn't the right fix, we say so and refer the tear-out.

Question 6
