"I have had two issues since they installed the new sump pump and irrigation. Issue number one was water still getting passed the new concrete. The other issue is that the new concrete was not level at all which has caused issues with the new flooring I installed. However, their customer service is top notch and will work hard to take care of you."
"Two jobs completed at separate times; three days altogether for both. TerraFirma quickly completed both jobs and the basement environment is significantly improved. We immediately noticed a difference in the air quality in the basement. The crawl space looks great and is now a clean environment. The concrete patio is now even and water no longer flows towards the house foundation. Issues : Crawlspace - 1. The invoice I was presented at the completion of the job was $900 more than the agreed upon price. After an hour, and me needing to make several phone calls, the situation was resolved. 2. The dehumidifier was not placed in the designated position described by the salesperson and noted in the plans. The dehumidifier was to be placed in an open spot in our basement adjacent to our utility sink. The foreman on the day of installation said that was not standard, pointed out how it was not possible to place it in the basement and installed it in the crawl space. The foreman and I tried to contact the salesperson for clarification but we were not able to get ahold of him. The foreman said this was typical. The salesperson did call me back at the end of the day but by then decisions had been made and work completed. 3. The dehumidifier was placed in such a way that the programming screen is not visible from the crawl space opening. If the unit throws a code there is no way to tell other than entering the crawlspace. 4. The salesperson said we would be provided with “decorative screens” to cover the crawlspace openings in the basement. What we received was wire mesh glued on to the cement walls. 5. We needed to make further arrangements with an electrician to accommodate the unplanned crawlspace placement of the dehumidifier. Patio polylevel – One of the two-man service crew brought his family (friends?) onto my property and worksite without consulting me and entertained them in my backyard for about a half an hour, mid-afternoon. Besides being a serious liability issue, I have to say that it is one of the oddest things I’ve ever seen a service person do; and I’ve seen some odd stuff."

"Got an estimate very quickly, great response time, But then the communication was inconsistent and there was confusion about if/when to start. When I called to make sure they were coming, they did not knowfor sure whether they were to do the job, anyway, they came out when originally scheduled and the work accomplished was good (not necessarily excellent but very good). Their cleanup was virtually non existent, No drop cloth or anything else was used on the floor, they did paper over exposed beams and masked windows and doors. It took us 4 hours to clean up the floor however (unfinished concrete) and although it was unfinished, the floor still required being clean prior to finishing. Other thoughts: while they were here, I asked for estimates from the owner on other aspects of this project and the owner told me they did that type of work (concrete floor) but after asking twice, the owner never gave me an estimate. In essence while the work they did was acceptable-nearly excellent-with the communication issues and lack of cleanup I am not 100% sure whether I would hire again or not. The one additional thing in their favor is the lack of decent contractors in Salem.

Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
Costs range from $500 to $1,500, depending on the size and condition of the area.
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.
Concrete leveling is absolutely worth it if you have sunken concrete slabs and want to restore them to level, especially if the slab is part of your home foundation. Concrete leveling is less than half the price of replacing concrete sidewalks, patios, walkways, and pool decks, and it’s about a quarter of the cost of replacing a foundation. If you also treat the underlying problem, it can be a worthwhile and permanent solution.
Concrete leveling can last anywhere from five to 10 years or more, and in some cases, it can be a permanent solution. The longevity depends on the method used and whether the underlying cause of the sinking is addressed. For example, mudjacking typically lasts five to 10 years, while polyjacking can last for 20 years or more. It's best to consult a professional for an accurate timeline based on your specific situation and any factors that could cause the issue to recur.
Polyjacking can be a permanent solution to sunken concrete if you also address the underlying issue—like poor drainage—at the same time. The polyurethane material itself can last as long as or even outlast the concrete you’re lifting it with. Your sunken concrete issue will likely return if you don’t couple polyjacking with proper drainage to prevent future soil movement and sinking.
