"When Greg arrived to review the project, he was very clear that they may not be able to lift my driveway where it met the street curb if it was dowelled into the street concrete. But I insisted they try it anyway. Sure enough he was correct, but we did get some improvement further up the driveway. The front walkway was a terrible tripping hazard due to tree roots and Southern Concrete Raising lifted and leveled the sections perfectly level and smooth. The crew was on time, professional, and thoroughly cleaned up work sites. Well done!"
"When we purchased our home in 2017, there was already a crack across the top 2 segments of the driveway where that area had sunk quite a bit. Besides the cosmetic issue, we felt this subsidence was also a tripping hazard. After researching online and using Angi, I found GROUNDWORKS (formerly FSS: Foundation Support Specialists) who came out to give an estimate. Ricardo showed up on time with advanced warning of his ETA. He was thorough and left me with a color-coded bid. Some of the driveway and sidewalk leading to the front door were going to be lifted, and some parts stabilized using the foam injection method. Even though I received bids from 2 other companies, I chose GROUNDWORKS for their 5-year warranty and mid-level pricing. All companies were 4.5 stars or higher on both Google and Angi. On the job day, they arrived on time. The job was completed in about 2 hours. I am very happy with the results."

"Mr. Winter and his daughter arrived on time. Both were very pleasant and knowledgeable. They worked together quickly and efficiently to make a map of my house with elevation readings. I was surprised to learn that although I have cracks in my exterior brick and on my interior walls, my foundation was level. The cracks weren’t caused by settling foundation, and I didn’t need foundation repairs. I was thrilled with the news and so happy to have met an honest company. I would recommend them to anyone with a foundation concern."
"showed them previos work shoewed them water problem in back both sides of yard. showed cracked around windows and walls at varios rooms.they took measurements and came back with diagram and suggestions for additional work on leveling foundation. with peirs ect. had suggested fixing the water problem with a French drain to run from property line fence across drive and across brick patio by pool. I agree we should fix water problem first with hope that house would settle back down when that issue is solved. they never called back to schedual the work. I called individual that did the estimate. and he assured me they would call. they did't call. I gave the 3 1/2 weeks to call and schedual. so I called an d cancelled project. "
"I had Gamez Construction install 65 linear feet Cedar wood fence in my back yard. I solicited bids from several companies and Gamez quoted me the best price. His crew arrived on time . They dismantled old fence and removed all of the debris. Gamez used quality materials and installed the fence with excellent craftsmanship. The fence looks great!"

The method involves lifting settled concrete using pressurized cement slurry via drilled holes. This solves uneven surfaces and prevents further settling.
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.
Mudjacking typically takes 24 to 72 hours (one to three days) to dry and cure completely before you can resume normal use. The exact time can vary depending on the size of the project. Because the slurry mixture contains cement, it must fully harden to ensure that added weight from walking, furniture, or vehicles won't shift the concrete slab. A professional contractor can advise you on when the surface is safe to use. For comparison, if you use polyjacking instead, the polyurethane foam can dry in just a few minutes, but it's best to wait about an hour before use.
The polyurethane used for polyjacking will expand and cure in 15 to 30 minutes. After that point, your slab will be safe to walk on and even drive on in the case of a sidewalk or concrete driveway. Double-check with your concrete lifting specialist to confirm a curing timeline, as products can differ.
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.
