"I saw this company at our local Home Show, and called the next Monday. Nick from Midwest Basement Systems came down to give me an estimate, he was very professional, and he followed up to make sure I did not have any questions or concerns. The crew was very professional making sure plastic was down and minimal disruption working very quietly! There was a follow up visit to make sure all the work was done according to the contract and to my satisfaction, again extremely professional!
We had a major rain since and I am happy to say there was no water in the basement and no musty smell! The humidity has dropped from a norm of 62% without rain to 41% with the Sani dry! I can even leave my basement door open, something I could never do before! I could not be more pleased and I feel it was worth every penny, because I have peace of mind! I am certain my utility bills will reflect a significant savings in the near future. I just wish I would have known about Midwest Basement Systems sooner. Great company, great product! I am sold!"

Concrete Leveling questions, answered by experts

Yes, expanding foam (also known as polyurethane foam) can lift concrete. This approach, called polyjacking, involves injecting the foam rather than concrete slurry to fill voids and raise the concrete slab back into place. It’s often faster and requires smaller drill holes than traditional mudjacking, though it may come at a higher cost. Some contractors also prefer polyjacking over mudjacking for more damaged and delicate slabs.

Most houses are expected to settle over time, but foundation sinking of more than a few inches or uneven sinking of more than an inch for every 20 feet is cause for concern. Any significant or uneven sinking should be assessed by a professional to determine the cause and perform any necessary repairs. 

Concrete leveling is absolutely worth it if you have sunken concrete slabs and want to restore them to level, especially if the slab is part of your home foundation. Concrete leveling is less than half the price of replacing concrete sidewalks, patios, walkways, and pool decks, and it’s about a quarter of the cost of replacing a foundation. If you also treat the underlying problem, it can be a worthwhile and permanent solution.

Mudjacking is your best bet for leveling concrete on a tighter budget. It’s less expensive than foam or grout mixture. For smaller, surface-level issues, you could also use a self-leveling compound, which creates an even surface over existing concrete—it’s a budget-friendly option suitable for DIY enthusiasts.

Mudjacking typically takes 24 to 72 hours (one to three days) to dry and cure completely before you can resume normal use. The total drying time can vary depending on the size of the project. Because the slurry mixture contains cement, it needs to harden fully to prevent the concrete slab from shifting under added weight. You should avoid walking on the concrete or placing heavy items like furniture or vehicles on the surface until it has fully set. Your concrete contractor can provide a precise timeline. As a point of comparison, if you opt for polyjacking, the polyurethane foam can dry in minutes, but it's recommended to wait about an hour before use.
