"We were very pleased with the job that Sam and Mike did on raising and stabilizing our pool pump house. Very professional and easy to talk with when voicing any concerns we had about the process. Having had such a good experience, we would most likely contact Adirondack Basement Systems if we have any further issues with sinking concrete. We rate them a 5+ for service and professionalism."
"The crew arrived on the planned date and worked diligently. They were knowledgeable about the issues of an old house and knew exactly what they were doing. They had to carry out the debris (concrete and dirt), and bring in the material and equipment by hand. They were careful to partition off the part of the basement where they worked and keep dust and dirt from going out of the work area. The crew did a great job in making sure the work sites were cleaned up and everything was done right. A truck had to come back 2 days later to finish up the river rock in the outside trench, as they had run out of material. The yard, considering how difficult it was to dig the trench away from the house, was in very good shape. There were tree roots ans shale that made things difficult and required a jackhammer at times. It was a difficult and messy job that they did wonderfully, inside and outside. I have been very pleased with the work and there has been no problems with water or excessive dampness in the basement."
"We cannot say enough good about Dylan, Seth and Tim. 3 very hard workers. Lifting heavy heavy loads of concrete and stone up my and down my cellar and porch steps. They never stopped for breaks. Great workers. Respectful and pleasant and knew their job requirements. Very careful with doors, floors etc It?s a messy job. ThankYou"

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.
A sinking foundation can be lifted, most often by installing piers to re-level and support the weight of the house. Depending on the cause and extent of the sinking, other methods to lift a foundation include underpinning and mudjacking. Consult a foundation repair pro to determine the best way to lift your sinking foundation.
It restores concrete, prevents replacement cost disruptions, reduces trip hazards, and provides stability at a lower cost.
There is no real alternative to underpinning, although mudjacking and polyjacking are other repair methods that can add support from underneath your foundation. Rather than placing supportive piers under your structure, these involve pumping a material under your slab to lift a sunken section back into its original position. Polyjacking, in particular, is sometimes a suitable solution for stabilization issues under slab foundations, but underpinning is often accepted as the best and most permanent solution.
Many contractors offer warranties for their work. Confirm terms before starting the project.
