Can I do my own concrete mudjacking?

• <div><p>It’s possible to rent the equipment necessary to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-mudjacking.htm">do your own mudjacking</a>, but we don’t recommend it. Mudjacking involves pumping a precise amount of cementitious slurry under your slab to lift it back into place and keep it there. It’s easy to pump too much or not enough, in which case you may need to call in a professional to help anyway. We strongly recommend against mudjacking any load-bearing slab, as you could easily cause irreversible structural damage to your property if you make a mistake. This is one job where paying for a professional is worthwhile.</p></div>

Q: How long does mudjacking last?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-mudjacking-lasts.htm">Mudjacking should last</a> for five to 10 years, so it&rsquo;s considered a temporary solution to sinking concrete. However, there are some cases where mudjacking fails before this time period, like if you have loose soil below the concrete or a karst landscape is to blame for the sinking concrete. Some mudjacking projects can last for well beyond a decade, depending on the underlying issue.</p></div>

Q: What does the concrete injection leveling/mudjacking process involve?

• <div><p>The method involves lifting settled concrete using pressurized cement slurry via drilled holes. This solves uneven surfaces and prevents further settling.</p></div>

Q: How much foundation sinking is too much?

• <div><p>Most houses are expected to settle over time, but foundation sinking of more than a few inches or uneven sinking of more than an inch for every 20 feet is cause for concern. Any significant or uneven sinking should be assessed by a professional to determine the cause and perform any necessary repairs. </p></div>

Q: What is the best underpinning method?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, push piers&mdash;or steel piers&mdash;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. </p></div>

Wanted a concrete pad but Derek noted major drainage problems. He removed grass and dirt and graded and installed new sod plus the pad. I am very pleased with the work as is the neighborhood!

It was a pleasure meeting and working with Ben and his crew. We had a fairly small job, but they gave it their full attention. Quality work and great outcome. We will certainly think of Ben for any future concrete work. We would highly recommend Ben and crew for any job, big or small.
