Mudjacking & Concrete Leveling in St. Peters, MO
St. Peters went from a few hundred residents in 1970 to more than 50,000 by 2000, and a lot of its concrete was poured fast on soft, creek-side ground. We lift sunken driveways, walks, patios and steps with mudjacking, without tearing them out.

Concrete Problems We Fix Around St. Peters
Many St. Peters neighborhoods sit near Spencer, Dardenne and Plum creeks, and that water is behind a lot of the settling we see.
Driveways in 1980s and 1990s subdivisions
In neighborhoods like Hi Point, Braewood and Steeplechase, driveways poured during the building boom are now 30 or more years old. As the soil under them settles, slabs drop at the garage and joints open up.
Patios near the creeks
Homes close to Spencer Creek and Dardenne Creek often have patios on soft, wet soil. After heavy rain, slabs settle and start holding water or draining toward the house.
Front walks and steps
Walks and stoops poured over backfill next to the foundation tend to tip toward the house. The gap at the step lets water get under the porch and the house.
Garage floors and aprons
Garage floor sections and aprons settle over voids, leaving a lip at the door that catches tires and toes.
Before & After: What Mudjacking Fixes
These are the kinds of slabs we lift every week across St. Louis and St. Charles counties. The slab stays in place; we raise it and fill the empty space underneath.

A quick look at how lifting works on real slabs. The grout goes in through small holes, fills the empty space underneath, and raises the concrete back toward level.

How Mudjacking Works
1. Drill small holes
We drill a few small holes through the settled slab to reach the empty or soft spots underneath.
2. Pump and lift
A cement-based grout is pumped under the slab. It fills the voids first, then slowly raises the concrete back toward level.
3. Patch and clean up
Once the slab is where it should be, we patch the holes and clean up. Most jobs are finished the same day.

Why Concrete Sinks in St. Peters
The City of St. Peters' own planning documents note that a large amount of floodplain sits within the city along Spencer, Dardenne, Plum and Baltic creeks, and that the north end of town is within the 100-year floodplain. The city's pavement program also notes that streets built before 1998 were laid directly on compacted native soil, under less-than-ideal subgrade conditions.
The ground here is mostly wind-blown silt (loess) on the higher ground and silty creek deposits in the low areas. Both lose support when water runs under a slab. Fine silt gets carried away, a hollow forms, and the concrete drops even though it's still in one piece.
Mudjacking fills that hollow and lifts the slab back toward level. Extending downspouts and keeping water off slab edges helps keep new voids from forming.

St. Peters Mudjacking FAQ
Does the City of St. Peters fix public sidewalks?
Yes, for public sidewalk. St. Peters says it inspects its roughly 95 miles of public sidewalk every year and repairs defects such as an edge of three-quarters of an inch or more through its Sidewalk Maintenance and Infill Program. Report a public sidewalk problem to the city. Your own driveway, walks, steps and patio are yours to fix, and that's where we come in.
Why does concrete sink near the creeks in St. Peters?
Creek-side soil stays wetter and softer, and floods and heavy rain wash fine silt out from under slabs. Once that support is gone, the slab settles.
Can mudjacking fix a patio that holds water?
Often, yes. We can lift the low side so water runs away from the house again, as long as the slab is still in one piece.
How long does a St. Peters driveway job take?
Most driveway, walkway and patio jobs are done in a few hours. We'll tell you when you can walk and drive on it.

Yes. We work across St. Charles County, including St. Charles, O'Fallon and Cottleville, plus St. Louis County.
