How do you know if there's an empty pocket under your slab before it actually sinks? A hollow sound when you tap the concrete is usually the first clue.

Foundation void filling stabilizes soil under a slab before it drops. This isn't the same as lifting a slab that's already sunk. It's catching the problem before it becomes visible. Murphy Concrete Lifting handles both, but void filling is the preventive version.

FAQs

Foundation Void Filling FAQs

How do I know if it's fill dirt settling or an actual foundation problem?

A hollow sound under the slab with no visible cracking usually means fill soil washed out or under-compacted. Wall cracks or sticking doors point more toward foundation movement. Void filling addresses the first case.

What's the difference between void filling, slab lifting, and foundation repair?

Void filling stabilizes soil that hasn't caused a visible drop yet. Slab lifting raises concrete that's already sunk. Foundation repair uses piers on the house structure itself. Three different jobs, three different price points.

Does foundation void filling need a permit in Murphy or Collin County?

Injecting foam to fill a soil void under an existing slab typically doesn't need a permit. Always verify with the city if you're unsure.

How much does void filling cost?

Priced by the estimated void size found during inspection, usually less than a full lift job.
