Do you have concrete surfaces that over time have become increasingly uneven? Do you have areas in your sidewalks or driveways that have slab edges protruding up or sinking down? Concrete slabs can be susceptible to a variety of factors that can cause them to tilt and settle over time including erosion, unstable soil, frost or freezing, and improper drainage just to name a few. These edges can be dangerous, make drainage issues worse and can cause concrete slabs to crack and break.

WHAT IS CONCRETE RAISING & POURING?

Concrete raising is often called "mudjacking" or "concrete lifting". It is a safe and cost-effective method of leveling misaligned concrete slabs. Mudjacking is done by drilling a series of holes (approximately the size of a quarter) into the slab and then pumping a mixture of concrete and recycled sand into the holes. The voids under the sunken slab fill with this mixture and are lifted up, back into position. The holes are then patched with cement and ready for use. The process of raising concrete with concrete results in a repair that is impervious to water and therefore a more permanent fix.

CONCRETE RAISING IS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

We care about our environment. All of our concrete raisings are done using an all-natural product that is a mixture of recycled rock and sand. It is environmentally friendly and it will not damage surrounding landscaping. By raising settled concrete rather than replacing it, we create less waste, and mudjacking is considerably less expensive than the cost of replacing the entire slab of concrete.

CONCRETE RAISING IS FAST AND CLEAN

With mudjacking most projects can be walked on within an hour. This is because there is no waiting for concrete to dry and there is very little, if any, impact on surrounding lawn and landscaping. In addition, we clean and pressure wash every job site before we leave.
