"Groundworks provided a solution for widening driveway cracks we were experiencing as well as raising a sunken portion. Their team of Carter S. and Riley G. did excellent work. Both Carter and Riley were professional and courteous. Carter provided full explanation of work to be performed and set expectations. All in all, job well done."
"They were great to work with from beginning to end. They had a rep come out quickly to inspect our house and gave us several options on how we could proceed after our lower level flooded. He discussed what we should consider and helped us pick out the right scope of work for our house and budget. When their team came to do the work, they were professional, handled the job quickly and respectively (which was a huge plus as we had a toddler in the house at the time). They sealed off the part of the house they were working on to limit any dust/dirt from where they were working getting anywhere else. We were very impressed. Our house is a tri-level, so having them waterproof ensured we got to use all our house as intended. Our downstairs is our main family area, and we use it now with no worries. We've had some huge rain events since we our work was done (Fall 2013), and never had any issues. I would highly recommend. - DS, Middlebury, Indiana"

They were professional and did the job in less time then they original thought. I am so very pleased with their work. I would hire them again in a minute for any foundation and floor leveling needs. Thank\ you Acculevel!!!!!"
"We initially hired Kenyon Construction to build a two-tiered deck system. This project involved a main deck with cedar beams, a roof, can lights and ceiling fans, connected to an open sun deck surrounding a hot tub (all pictured). The project went so well that we have since used Marc and his team for bedroom and bathroom remodels, flooring updates, and a new roof. Communication is awesome and projects come in at or under budget. We wouldn't even think about choosing a different company for any of our home remodel needs. Highly recommended!"
"Tom is very professional and fair. This was an addition to an existing home, so there ended up being additional work that needed to be done to the original structure that was not anticipated. But we found Tom to be earnest and trustworthy in his assessment of which work was a priority, and which was not. Despite the additional cost for this additional work, the cost for the original work came in on budget. Quality of work was very good."

"Brad, the technician for Tom's Appliance Service, provided excellent and friendly service. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I am not happy with Choice Home Warranty, however. When purchasing 3 contracts for 3 houses, I was promised service within 24-72 hours. The service was not completed until a week later."
"After a severe rainfall my wife and I discovered water was forcing its way through the basement slab and in between the slab and cove joints in our basement. Knowing that we wanted to eventually finish the basement, I contacted five different contractors to assess which had the best solution to keep the area dry. In the end we chose Stay Dry based off the company's proposed solution, experience, and positive review base on Angie's List. While Stay Dry's solution was similar to what other contractor's quoted, it was superior in that they used triple-walled perforated pipe--not corrugated--that was installed next to the foundation footer as it should be. Don't let a waterproofing company--in my particular case, Ayer's Basement Systems--convince you that a drainage tile can be installed on top of the foundation footer and function properly. Reading guidelines the Department of Energy and Oak Ridge National Laboratory established for proper foundation water management, and a little common sense, confirm this. All of this is to say that Stay Dry proposed and installed a system that is proven to work, and they did so with excellent workmanship. Jim and his crew were courteous and professional in their conduct throughout the installation, and I would heartily recommend them--and Stay Dry--to anyone needing basement work. They literally went above and beyond the scope of what they were paid to do. They installed a dry well for us, and then they took extra time to move the left-over dirt to areas that needed improved grading to keep water away from the house. Nowhere was this in the contract, but they did it free without question. I couldn't be happier with the quality of the finished product, but there is one small thing that could have been done better from the sales side. We decided to opt for the battery backup sump pump with the Pump Spy monitoring service, but the Stay Dry sales rep did not disclose the fact that the Pump Spy service itself included just a 30 day trial, after which there is a $4.99 monthly fee. I was not made aware of this until I went to activate the service online when the system was installed. $4.99 is not bad for being able to regularly monitor the sump's activity and any issues that could arise, but I do wish that the Stay Dry rep had informed me ahead of time. Regardless, I highly recommend that anyone who is having basement water issues give Stay Dry a call and rest assured that their work is worth the investment.
"Workers showed up on time. Big job installing tiles to waterproof our 110 year old house. We are very happy with the results. It was an expensive project but well worth the money"
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.
Many contractors offer warranties for their work. Confirm terms before starting the project.
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.
The polyurethane used for polyjacking will expand and cure in 15 to 30 minutes. After that point, your slab will be safe to walk on and even drive on in the case of a sidewalk or concrete driveway. Double-check with your concrete lifting specialist to confirm a curing timeline, as products can differ.
