How does mudjacking work?

Mudjacking, also known as Slabjacking, is a process that raises sunken concrete back to its original level. This unique process will restore sunken or uneven concrete slabs close to their original grade and alignment with surrounding concrete slabs.A series of holes are drilled in the sunken concrete. A slurry is pumped through the holes. When the void under the sunken concrete is filled with the mixture, the concrete will raise. The holes are patched with grout and the surface is ready to use.

Can you fix my concrete?

We will take on any repairable concrete! On some rare occasions concrete is too damaged to be repaired. During your free estimate we will evaluate your concrete and advise you on the best course of action regarding its repair or replacement.  At this time we do not pour new concrete.

How long does it take to perform my repair?

Most concrete slabs are repaired within just a few hours.  The slabs are immediately usable. The small patches we apply in our access holes usually harden in a few hours. Please note any additional sealants or  large patches applied for you can take up to 24 hours to fully cure.

What time of year can you lift concrete?

It is possible to lift concrete most of the year. If the air and ground are both above freezing, we can lift your concrete. We typically operate from mid April through the end of October . Indoor projects can sometimes be done year round. 

What are the benefits of concrete levelling over concrete replacement?

The cost of levelling usually represents a savings of 60% to 75% below the cost of concrete replacement. The levelling process can be completed and ready for use in a matter of hours. Municipal building permits are not required

Are mud-jacking, concrete lifting, slab jacking, and slab stabilization the same thing?

Yes and No. There are several terms used to describe the service we perform. While different companies use different methods, we all strive to lift your concrete to its original height.

Why has my concrete settled?

There are many different reasons why sometimes the backfill around your foundation is not compacted properly. This will create voids and the concrete may settle. The backfill around utilities will settle over time.

How is Mud-jacking more eco friendly?

The cement industry is estimated to contribute about 8% of carbon emissions globally.  By repairing concrete versus replacing, you avoid contributing to one of the worlds largest producers of CO2.  We transform a natural limestone base, that would otherwise be an industrial waste product of concrete production, into a viable material to repair your concrete. Our competition relies on mixing two known carcinogenic chemicals, isocyanate and polyol, to create the foam used to lift your concrete. No chemicals will EVER be put in your ground, home, garage, or otherwise with our machines. We inject only natural real earth materials under your concrete.
