"I can't rate the value as that will occur over time. For the work they did -filling the voids under my concrete and the deep hole next to it and my spa, it seems to be a good solution. They also helped me move my spa back. They showed up when they said they would and accomplished the work in less than an hour. It took a minimal amount of communication to get the appointment and a guestimate (with only seeing pictures I sent.). They did raise the price 50% from that but (again) they had not seen the work needed until they arrived."

Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
Many contractors offer warranties for their work. Confirm terms before starting the project.
A slurry of cement, sand, and water is injected beneath the concrete to lift and stabilize it.
Mudjacking is suitable for sidewalks, driveways, patios, and nearly all exterior flat structures. However, it may not suit severely damaged or heavily cracked areas.
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.
Generally speaking, push piers—or steel piers—are the best option for underpinning, as they reach down to solid bedrock to find support for your foundation rather than relying on soil, which could be subject to the same issues as the soil directly below your foundation. However, the best underpinning method for your home depends on your location, how far down the bedrock is, and the type of soil in your area. Helical piers are usually the best option for sandy soil or in areas where the bedrock is too deep to use steel piers.
