"Great job on leveling foundation. But no one came back to fix our yard. They was supposed to come back and reseed the yard that was tore up. No one called or cane vack"
"Fantastic Work. Looks amazing and would highly recommend. Higher these guys. They work fast and do exactly what you ask. My patio is a million times better than the deck I had previously! A+++"
"Excellent work. Very timely, professional and courteous. I would recommend this company for your concrete needs. We had a patio completed next to our deck, very neat in appearance and everything cleaned up upon completion.."
"Have used this company twice and would highly recommend. First time they leveled a patio that had sloped towards the house which was causing water problems. That job was done above and beyond expectations. Second time they raised the front walk from the driveway to the front porch with excellent results. Absolutely no mess with incredible results. Very willing to work with you."

"My husband and I came to the realization that we needed to replace our garage floor that had never been level, sloped to the center, and had deepening hazardous cracks. The asphalt drive also needed to be replaced. We used Angi, which is nice because you can see all of the reviews of each of the companies represented on the site. We chose 3 contractors for estimates. When Chris Hayes, the owner of Professional Contracting Iowa, showed up for the second estimate, we canceled the third one.. Chris was as impressive as were his dozens of 5 star reviews. Chris’s experience and expertise, and his communication skills to explain each problem and the best option for a quality and lasting fix, are top notch. I know nothing about construction and/or concrete, but Chris explained the replacement process well. My husband understands more as an architect, and was just as sold on Chris’s company. Chris’s crew was dealing with scattered rainstorms for a couple of weeks before our planned project, and we let him know that ours could be delayed if they needed to catch up. But his crew managed to make it on the scheduled day just several hours late. Bob, Mike and James arrived that afternoon and were professional, friendly, and focused on getting the garage floor and asphalt torn out so that they could pour the next day. But about 2 hours into the job, they discovered that they had not one, but 3 asphalt drives to tear out. The depth of the asphalt was 9 inches. That is a major deal since asphalt is more difficult to remove than concrete. At 6 pm, they had a total of 8 guys plus Chris working on the project until 9:30 pm. It was really hot, but all of them continued to have a positive attitude and were very friendly and courteous to any neighbors walking by. They were all coming back the next day at 7, but more rain delayed the start time until 10:30. They all worked very late again, but the pouring was done before they left! It is so refreshing to work with a contractor and crew that is responsive, dependable, and is interested in doing only high quality work. Nobody really wants to replace concrete drives or garage floors, but I am sure that when any of my neighbors have to do it, they will be calling me for the contact information for Chris and Professional Contracting iowa!"
"The men worked very hard to level my driveway but encountered issues with rerod that made it impossible to totally level it. They gave it their best shot."
Most states and municipalities don’t require concrete mudjacking companies to carry a specific license, but they usually need to have a general contractor’s license, and they should be fully insured. The only exception is if the mudjacking company provides foundation repairs as well, or if it offers mudjacking for home foundations. In that case, they will typically need a foundation repair contractor’s license. You can check state requirements and then use Angi’s license lookup tool to confirm that a company is properly licensed to provide mudjacking services in your area.
Mudjacking typically takes 24 to 72 hours (one to three days) to dry and cure completely before you can resume normal use. The exact time can vary depending on the size of the project. Because the slurry mixture contains cement, it must fully harden to ensure that added weight from walking, furniture, or vehicles won't shift the concrete slab. A professional contractor can advise you on when the surface is safe to use. For comparison, if you use polyjacking instead, the polyurethane foam can dry in just a few minutes, but it's best to wait about an hour before use.
Concrete leveling can last anywhere from five to 10 years or more, and in some cases, it can be a permanent solution. The longevity depends on the method used and whether the underlying cause of the sinking is addressed. For example, mudjacking typically lasts five to 10 years, while polyjacking can last for 20 years or more. It's best to consult a professional for an accurate timeline based on your specific situation and any factors that could cause the issue to recur.
Most projects take 1-3 hours, with immediate usability after completion.
The average cost for mudjacking is around $1,200, though prices can range from $300 to $3,400. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $3 and $8, with an average of about $5 per square foot. The final cost depends on several factors, including the square footage of the concrete, the type of slab, its accessibility, whether it is load-bearing, and the type of material used to lift it. Generally, lifting a driveway, small patio, or sidewalk is less expensive than lifting a slab foundation or garage floor.
