"We are still in the budgeting phase and have not contacted yet however Scott Hughes of Groundwork’s was a great resource. He provided detailed information on the issues and how they would resolve them for us."
"It was a large square footage but was achieved within the time frame specified. The company came in very professional and on time every time. They ground the floors to expose new aggregate. Then they installed the flooring system within a day. The place looks fantastic and everyone in the lab including guests brag about our new floors. We are extremely happy and glad we did this. We even had them come back and do all of our entrances."
"The concrete and grading project well fairly week. The contractor started and finished as planned. He came back to fix a problem. However, the finish work was not the best. The block wall construction - another story. The subcontractor or employee that supervised the project was less then professional. Always late, always telling a different story . . . I felt like he didn't understand what was covered in my contract with JK Marsh. The quality was fair. In general the company does ok work but does not communicate with employees, subcontractors or the customer. It was difficult to work with them. This project started June 20 and ended in September. The project was planned to be done in a month. I won't hire them again. I am still waiting for my copy of the city permit for the wall!! "
"They did a great job, very friendly, were very helpful answering all my questions and working around my schedule. The work was excellent and to this day I have no issues with the concrete."
"Outstanding job! Alejandro Gomez did a great job with his crew to make my patio look wonderful and just the way I wanted. He was very accommodating and professional."
Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
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.
Concrete leveling is not typically covered by insurance. In some cases where the shifting concrete is caused by a natural disaster or storm, you may be able to file an insurance claim if your policy specifically covers those circumstances. In most cases, though, you’ll pay out-of-pocket for concrete leveling.
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.
Mudjacking restores level surfaces, prevents further damage, and is more cost-effective than a full replacement.
Charges correlate with surface size, settlement depth, and access, often yielding significant savings over concrete replacement.
