"I was fortunate to find them. I needed a fence up for my dogs before we arrived at our new home so my dogs would have a safe place to be right away. We had a bump in the road but they made it right."
"What started out as a simple request for mowing the lawn, turned into a total yard clean up/landscaping. The property itself is very large and had not been properly maintained for at least 5 years. Needless to say, all hedges, bushes, and areas that were once mowed were at least waist high or taller. Within one week - several trips - Devon - the owner of the company had everything under control. It was very important to me since I don't live at the property and live in a different state, that all concerns were addressed. Truth be told, I am a perfectionist and have very high expectations. Not only did Devon take before pictures for me - all angles of the yard, but also followed up with after pictures to show the work that had been completed. Beautiful work! In addition, Devon is a great communicator. He lets you know the status of the work and is always prompt with returning calls - very responsive! With all of this outstanding service, I was expecting a steep price. I was pleasantly surprised with the pricing and I'm here to tell you that this company is the most reasonably priced in the area. What a pro! I highly recommend. 5 ð ð ð ð ð all the way!!!!!"

Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
The method involves lifting settled concrete using pressurized cement slurry via drilled holes. This solves uneven surfaces and prevents further settling.
Mudjacking typically takes 24 to 72 hours (one to three days) to dry and cure completely before you can resume normal use. The total drying time can vary depending on the size of the project. Because the slurry mixture contains cement, it needs to harden fully to prevent the concrete slab from shifting under added weight. You should avoid walking on the concrete or placing heavy items like furniture or vehicles on the surface until it has fully set. Your concrete contractor can provide a precise timeline. As a point of comparison, if you opt for polyjacking, the polyurethane foam can dry in minutes, but it's recommended to wait about an hour before use.
Most projects take 1-3 hours, with immediate usability after completion.
Mudjacking is usually reserved for light-duty slabs, like patios, driveways, and sidewalks. However, it can be an effective way to lift garage slabs and concrete around the perimeter of the home, which could harm your foundation if it’s not done properly. The risk of damage is why having a professional mudjacking company carry out the work is important. This type of slab or foundation repair is relatively inexpensive, especially if you consider that a DIY job requires that you pay to rent the necessary equipment.
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.
