Benefits of Mud Jacking

Utilizing compaction grouting can help correct the following issues:

  • It’s a green repair since it reduces the amount of concrete sent to landfills.
  • It can be done in nearly any weather conditions.
  • There is close to zero damage to landscaping.
  • Nothing needs to be moved since the pump can lift the slab and other loads on top of it.

Example of Combining Compaction Grouting and Mud Jacking

If a front porch has sagged over time due to loose backfill behind the basement walls, Straight Line Construction can mitigate the settlement issue by performing this process:

  • Drill holes through the slab and drive grout pipes through the holes into the loose soil. Pressure pump grout to displace and compact the surrounding soil until it is stabilized.
  • Lift the sagging slab by pumping low mobility grout just below the surface until the slab returns to as close to its original elevation as possible.
  • Fill any remaining void spaces with a higher mobility grout to prevent future cracking or settlement. Patch holes and clean work area, leaving little evidence of the work performed.

About Ram Jack

Ram Jack is a family-owned business that began operations in 1968, in Ada, OK, where we currently source our piers and brackets. Back then, concrete piering was the original repair method used simply because it was the only technology available at the time. Over time, it became evident that concrete piers did not provide long-term stabilization of foundations and only provided a short-term warranty period. To guarantee the highest grade of customer satisfaction, a greater solution needed to be found.

The Ram Jack owners embarked on a research program to develop a foundation repair system to stand the test of time. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office first issued a patent to Ram Jack for its foundation repair system in 1985. Over the next few years, additional refinements and patents have followed, resulting in the strongest patented system in the industry. Ram Jack driven pilings are ICC-ES recognized (International Construction Code—Evaluation Services). Ram Jack is one of only two ICC-ES recognized foundation repair companies in the industry. Ram Jack’s products meet or exceed code requirements set down by ICC-ES for both commercial and residential properties.
