"Brent explained how the leveling process worked, which was much more involved than I thought. He advised me as to how leveling slab-A might affect slab-B, so we could decide exactly how to approach the job. As the work progressed, he leveled a couple other slabs free of charge, for a better result. He ran into a problem with a small slab under a step, but took his time, and did the best he could. He, and his partner, were professional and courteous, taking time to assess how each slab might affect the next one. They cleaned up the mess very well before they left, and never gave me the impression that they were only concerned about how quickly they could finish and leave. They're pricing was much better than two other quotes, and their salesman seemed more willing to help me decide which slabs to level without running up the cost. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. "
"Good alternative to replacing concrete. CLI Concrete Leveling out of Ypsilanti was the first to respond with an estimate for driveway repair at my home. I live in Kalamazoo. They are now going to do some work at my office and also do a neighborâ s driveway."
"So far no more leaks into lower level workers very polite told me every thing step by step that was being done very happy with the work that was done to me price was a little high for 4 hours work"
"Alex responded right a way to my phone call. He was out the next day to give an estimate for our job. His proposal came the next day and he schedule our job even before he received our deposit (25% for materials). He showed up to do the job exactly when he said he would and because he explained the process so well, we were completely prepared for what he would be doing. Because it was near dark when they finished, they missed installing mortar in one hole. Alex returned promptly to fill the hole. We would recommend Alex and Building Performance Solutions for any of your insulation needs. "

"We were very impressed with the work done at our home. We had three separate areas leveled (The two driveway areas previously had water pooling near the foundation of the garage and home every time it rained. The A/C unit was not leveled when we moved in this past winter). The gentleman who came out to do our quote was professional and understanding in practicing social distancing with the Covid situation. When the two gentlemen came out to perform the work they were prompt, on time and overall did an outstanding job. We couldn’t be happier with the results as it’s rained for the past 3 days and ZERO water pooling! I would 100% recommend this company."
"They were very good, and were the most affordable. Tony was very knowledgeable, and did a very nice job sealing it because they also had to seal the concrete against my brick wall, and actually did it beveled so it'd look nice."
"Leveling/sealing went fine. Developed sand leak. Called company and was told: 'invoice clearly states that wash out not covered. Wash-out was never directly discussed as the drive clearly showed that it was leveled before: drilled and plugged holes. Tom Morgan said sand was not the material he used and I asked what could be done to stop the leaking (via email) and he never answered."
On average, a mudjacking repair lasts between five and 10 years, though it can sometimes last for well beyond a decade under ideal conditions. Its longevity depends heavily on several factors, including the condition of the underlying soil, environmental conditions like freeze/thaw cycles and erosion, and whether the root cause of the sinking, such as drainage issues, is resolved. Because it doesn't always fix the underlying problem of loose soil, mudjacking is often considered a temporary solution. Proper maintenance and evaluation can help extend its lifespan.
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.
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.
Costs range from $500 to $1,500, depending on the size and condition of the 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.
