"We had more than 80% of the old house remodeled with new additions. It’s a daunting task and huge project. However, Dimitritis and Joshua made it easy and did a great job in completing our dream home. Joshua was fantastic managing the daily tasks and excellent with details. They were very responsive in re-addressing even with minor adjustments. Definitely recommend."

"Stoyan was extremely professional and honest. He called before arriving, arrived on time and looked around. He had me describe what I had observed, inspected my ejection well and my walls and foundation. He did state that he could not see everything because the basement was finished but from what he could see, it was not an interior unit problem, but rather an exterior (HOA) issue. I asked him if he could chat with a friend on the phone who was trying to help me. Stoyan patiently discussed the entire situation with my friend and discussed options etc. There was absolutely NO ATTEMPT to oversell me or sell me something that I did not need. I asked him if he would mind looking at my neighbor's basement while he was there. He said he would. We went over and Stoyan examined my neighbors's basement. He basically said the same thing, that as far as this general seepage goes, it was an outside drainage issue. He patiently explained to both of us, how this should all work for our four unit building. I cannot say enough positive things. I highly recommend this company."

"We met with Charlie Murphy several times to discuss the possibility of using Icon Building Group to build our house. Charlie was concerned that they would not live up to our high expectations. In the end, they not only met our expectations, they exceeded them. Icon assembled a talented team to execute the building of our house. They selected a group of subcontractors that had the necessary talents and attention to detail to be able to execute the detailed design that we entrusted to them. The efforts of the subcontractors were carefully guided by our superintendent, Mike P. In the office, Shawna H. did a great job navigating our project thru the challenging City review process. We had several challenges during the project, and the Icon team dealt with them in a positive manner. We are extremely happy with the end result and look forward to enjoying our new home for many years to come! Bob and Pat"

"Mike, Eddie, and their team were great. From the beginning communication was easy and Mike was easy to get ahold of when we had questions regarding materials and details in the estimate he sent us. We actually had them quote us a few years back, but had to hold off on the work due to multiple home repairs. They gave us a new estimate, for a small increase, which I really respected given the 4 years that had passed and the amount of work they had on their schedule. We had a couple of other companies come out and quote us and E & B gave us a middle ground price, but with plenty of detail to back it up. We ended up deciding to do composite deck floorboards with a wood railing. After they began demo my husband realized that even though we had planned to hold off on having our back sidewalk re-poured to slope away from the house it wouldn't be possible since two of the staircase footers would have to sit on top of it. We asked if they could add give us an estimate on one sidewalk from the back of the house to the alley. After some back and forth on the height and slope of the sidewalk, they got started on that the next day. We also decided that we might as well replace our sliding door that has been giving us issues and Eddie ordered that immediately for us. Everyone was respectful about our space, worked hard, and whenever we had questions they stopped work until we had it resolved. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure to come back to finish up a few minor details. They also came back two weeks later when the sliding door wouldn't lock. They didn't leave us hanging after the majority/all of the job was done, which had happened to us once before. I trust them enough to work with them again when we're ready to tackle the next thing on our bungalow fix-it list."

"Out of several companies I called to install a window well, Manny was the only one who understood what I wanted and gave me an upfront cost. I had 2 other window well drains previously installed by the prior owner of my home. Other companies wanted to talk me into things I did not need or want. They were prompt, completed the work with minimal issue and left the area relatively clean."

"We did not have the work done. We will monitor the situation to see if the front of the house sinks more. In the meantime, we will patch the cracks. I gave their pricing a "C," but I did not do a thorough check of competitive pricing; therefore, considering the helpfulness of Jason, I gave them an overall "A" rating."

"EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! I cannot tell you how pleased my husband and I are with the quality of the work from Garcias Repairs. Our problem was a lot of loose vinyl siding on our two-story home that we were fearful of blowing away. Dario Garcia and Jose were very thorough in their assessment of our project, making certain that the wood underneath the siding was in good condition before the repair, which it was. It was evident from this assessment that they took pride in what they do. They then gave us a fair estimate for the repair. Their attention to detail left our home in better condition, and we could be happier. They did a beautiful job. Because we were so happy with the work they did on our house, we hired them to do some vinyl repair on my sister's home. Results again, were excellent. It is refreshing to come across contractors that are so HONEST. My husband and I recommend GARCIA'S REPAIRS highly."

House Leveling questions, answered by experts

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. 

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 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.

It’s best not to perform mudjacking in the winter unless the ground temperature remains above freezing. Freezing temperatures can cause the slurry to harden too quickly, compromising its strength and longevity. Concrete is also more susceptible to cracking and splitting in cold temperatures, so there’s a higher risk of damaging the slab during the drilling and lifting process in winter.

It restores concrete, prevents replacement cost disruptions, reduces trip hazards, and provides stability at a lower cost.
