"Chris and the team were exceptional. The city marked slabs that would require fixing or replacing so I contacted Ace Mudjacking. Chris came out right away and took a look, gave me an estimate and said he could do it right away. No payment until the completed work would pass inspection. Ace Mudjacking saved me a ton of money, and Chris is just the nicest man. I highly recommend this company."
"I obtained several estimates for repairing a crack in my garage floor. The Lift and Level representative examined the garage and told me that the crack in the floor was a symptom of bigger problems with my garage foundation, and he advised me to look into that before repairing the floor. Subsequent investigations proved that his assessment was correct. (Another concrete leveling company simply gave me an estimate for repairing the floor, which would not have helped at all.) I was impressed with the representative's expertise and honesty, and grateful for his help in determining the correct solution for my problem. "
Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
Yes, you can mudjack cracked concrete, but the cracks will need to be repaired once the concrete has been leveled. If the concrete is severely cracked in multiple places, replacement may be a better option, but for less severe cracking, mudjacking is a good solution as long as cracks are correctly caulked and sealed.
Common issues with concrete that may require professional repair or resurfacing include cracks, spalling, uneven surfaces, and weather damage.
A good slump height really depends on the project, but there is a use for nearly all slump levels. For example, low slumps are best in projects that require structure, such as curbs and roads. High slumps often require additional reinforcement, but they flow more freely into hard-to-reach spaces.
Mudjacking can be an expensive foundation repair process, but in many cases, it’s well worth the investment. This is especially true if you’re lifting a portion of sunken foundation slab back into place. In that case, mudjacking can help avoid major structural damage and even home collapse by restoring the integrity of your structure with minimally invasive procedures. Mudjacking a concrete patio, walkway, or sidewalk can be worthwhile because it removes tripping hazards and makes your outdoor area more aesthetically appealing.
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.
