"Cliff Wertz and George Wertz of Baker's Waterproofing were fantastic. Very polite and respectful of my daughter and me and of the property. They were very clean and worked extremely hard and were extra taxed by the heat, working in 90⁰+ degrees for two days doing very hard labor and precision work with the jacks. I would definitely have them back if I'd ever need anything else they provide."
"We had a concrete walkway and patio that was in need of repair. Several cracks and not level. We had several estimates to replace,which was very expensive. We had Lift It Pro give us an estimate on leveling the concrete. The owner was professional, answered all our questions. His price was WAY LOWER than replacing. We were given references to call. He completed the job in the time frame promised. Only one day to raise the concrete, and can use the patio immediately. If considering concrete replacement or repair, do not hesitate to call Lift It Pro"
"Excellent job! Mr. Watson & his team were prompt and walked me through the process step-by-step for my concrete patio. Pricing.was great and I have already referred some friends to Watson & Sons."
"Quick response to my request for a quote to seal our driveway. James called me within seconds of completing form on ANGI. Work was completed in a timely manner and was done professionally. Very neat. Driveway looks like new. Well worth the price."
"I called because I was looking to refinance my mortgage. Simply, instead of trying to sell me something I didn't need, Mark (the gentleman I spoke with) told me this was not the right time for me to refinance. What he told me made sense for my situation, and I appreciated the honest advice. I will definitely look this company up again when it is time for me to refinance. "
"Had concrete sidewalk slabs leveled, was out of level about 3" to each other and twisted one sided, fantastic job was done, results better then expected. I would highly recommend this company for leveling jobs. I rated customer service lower because pre hire communication was lacking at times"

Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
Mudjacking restores level surfaces, prevents further damage, and is more cost-effective than a full replacement.
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.
Mudjacking can be an expensive foundation repair process, but in many cases, it’s well worth the investment. This is especially true if you’re lifting a portion of sunken foundation slab back into place. In that case, mudjacking can help avoid major structural damage and even home collapse by restoring the integrity of your structure with minimally invasive procedures. Mudjacking a concrete patio, walkway, or sidewalk can be worthwhile because it removes tripping hazards and makes your outdoor area more aesthetically appealing.
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.
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.
