"After my Father passed away, and while I was getting ready to sell his house, I noticed the floors did not seem level and they seemed to be getting increasingly worse. I called Advanced Foundation Repair & Replacement to see if they could fix the problem. The owner, Frank Matyiko, came to the house the very next day and diagnosed the problem. He concluded that the main structural support beam was a rotting wood beam and that it needed to be replaced with an engineered approved steel beam that could support the weight of the floor. I decided to take his advice and proceed. The owner, Frank Matyiko, came out the following week and performed the work in a timely and professional manner. Advanced Foundation Repair & Replacement leveled the floors with the steel I beam and concreted steel column posts in the basement floor to help support the floor. The floors are perfectly level now. The team cleaned the job site and were very polite. Calling Advanced Foundation Repair & Replacement was the best thing I could have done. During a very stressful time, they came in, gave me great advise, got the job done in a reasonable time so I could proceed with the sale.
"My front walkway had sunk unevenly at either end and was at minimum a tripping hazard much less ugly to see. Due to the fact that a large koi pond was only a foot away from the walkway i was extremely skeptical of the possible damages from any type of repair / replacement of walkway, however Robert and the crew at Elevated Concrete Lifting was more than professional and took into consideration the integrity of the pond and more importantly the fish, everything was properly covered so that any debris would not contaminate the water. Not only the repairs but the crew and their professionalism far exceeded my expectations. Thank you."

"First he used non-english speaking workers, very difficult to guide work due to this. Poor concrete laying and wanted to use my gravel instead of providing for job. Intended to reuse old railroad ties for retaining walls instead of replacing them, and did not intend to run new electrical but instead to hook into existing run. Unacceptable as this is dangerous. Also was not going to give any access into attic space until I realized that and specified they must give access. Materials used in the addition itself were acceptable and it was well built, so the building skills are there just in my opinion overpriced. Roof is acceptable but not something I would brag on. Gutters are well done but these were contracted out by the contractor not done by his employees. "
Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
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.
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.
Yes, expanding foam (also known as polyurethane foam) can lift concrete. This approach, called polyjacking, involves injecting the foam rather than concrete slurry to fill voids and raise the concrete slab back into place. It’s often faster and requires smaller drill holes than traditional mudjacking, though it may come at a higher cost. Some contractors also prefer polyjacking over mudjacking for more damaged and delicate slabs.
It restores concrete, prevents replacement cost disruptions, reduces trip hazards, and provides stability at a lower cost.
Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.
Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.
