"Level existing concrete driveway I can't say enough good things, from the front office to the field technicians. Justin and Austin were polite, very informative and skilled at what they did. We couldn't be happier with the end result. They will be highly recommended. Ronnie and Linda"
"We had sinking concrete both in our sidewalk and driveway panel next to the garage apron. We hired Baird to do the repairs, including also sealing all of the driveway expansion joints. The results of this job exceeded our expectations and couldn't have asked for anything better. The team was very personable, professional and were happy to explain and demonstrate every step of the way. Highly recommend Baird."
"Mr. Ed Wise at E-Tex Foundation Repair in Gladewater, Tx (903-331-3278) said the procedure would take a total of three days, told me everything that needed to be done, and kept in touch. He called the day before to tell me they were coming out the next morning. He and the crew were very friendly, and worked quickly, efficiently, and professionally. After digging out four pier holes, they laid cement and left it to dry through the next day. He called the next day and let me know when they were coming out on the third morning. They arrived on time and jacked the slab to re-level and shimmed with solid concrete blocks and plate steel shims. Ground areas that had been lost were filled in with dirt and well-packed, and concrete pieces and dirt stabilized my driveway. Everything was cleaned up from the work area, and I was extremely happy with the results. I would recommend this company of very friendly, very competent people to everyone I know. With the work guaranteed (with a transferable warranty) for 30 years, I have nothing but the best to say about the people and the services rendered. Excellent communication from Mr. Wise beginning with my first email to the company for a bid through the completion of the job! "

"Robert and Glenn talk very fast and both mumble, so it is difficult to understand them. Each conversation has to be repeated so we can understand clearly what was to happen.
Previous foundation work by LevelCheck in 2002 paid $8,450.00 (22 piers outside) (7 interior piers) some piers were placed on concrete blocks; no i-beams were place which did not insure the integrity of the foundation. Since we've had severe movement inside and outside, cracks on ceilings, walls, window movement/broken, windows open with difficulty, as did doors, some doors did not latch and were crooked in the frame and there are cracks in the new siding, ?Hardiplank,? outside. (The previous company "LevelCheck" gave us a "Lifetime Guarantee" BUT ARE NO LONGER IN BUSINESS . Make sure whomever you choose to do your foundation, they have a good reputation and have been in business for a LONG TIME, AND SOLUBLE!!) VERY, VERY EXPENSIVE LESSON!!
The total cost was approximately $37,000.00. BUT the first contract was $18,000, required a $10,000 immediate payment with a $4,000.00 check when piers are ?ready? and another $4,000.00 after the ?flowable fill material? (slurry concrete) is poured. (Giving a 10% discount off original quote before the $18,000) The 2nd contract required a $10,000 so already paid $20,000 and only into 5 hours of work. Another payment due on the 21st when they found more plumbing problems under both bathrooms. Of course, another payment was asked for when the plumber came. Glen ultimately wanted the final paymentbefore the work was completed. We had never worked with a contractor before that wanted payment before the work was done. Really poor business practice. We were having work done through the week before Thanksgiving and several of the workers left town and went to Mexico. Work continued, but only with a couple workers.
I could never get a clear answer on whether they were going to go through the garage to access the load bearing wall. I asked several times. The foreman decided to dig from the back of the house and the midline over to that wall (then Glen told us he hadn't charged us for 6 feet of tunnel, which was included in the first contract.) How can we tell, other than what we see and hear? We certainly weren't going to crawl in the tunnels ourselves. In my opinion, that was a miscue between the boss and the foreman.
They worked through Nov. and part of Dec before they started to level the house. When they started working on the wall between the dining room and the kitchen, the wall went right through the ceiling a couple inches. The front door is still out of square, as are the front windows. They are still extremely hard to close. When I told Robert the floor was still not level he said, "I told you I couldn't promise everything would be level," Well, what is the point of paying to have the work done??
They were supposed to check the existing piers and shore them up, but when I continued to ask if they would lower the east wall, they said they had not found the previous piers. Whenever we would point out to Glen that we had already had a tunnel dug under the house before, or pipes repaired, or already had piers placed, he always had an excuse for why he "needed" more money. He had to have money to pay the plumber beforehand; he had to have money to pay for 2 cement trucks of slurry beforehand, he had to have money to pay his people; had to have money because he was going to Austin. Really? Just poor business!
After Christmas, they sent a couple men to backfill. They were supposed to place pvc pipe under the house to allow the slurry to be pumped under the house, They backfilled a 14 foot tunnel with no pvc and another 10 foot tunnel on the other side of the house without putting a pvc. They had had to stop work because of the rain. The next day when we noticed the tunnels filled and asked about the pipe they dug a little way on one side of the house and placed a pipe. It certainly was not as far into the tunnel as it had been dug. Then on the 14 ft tunnel no pvc. When they came to pump the cement truck hardly used all slurry, and certainly not 2 trucks filled for which we paid. When Mark asked Glen about it, he said he had given us other discounts. That wasn't the point; our concern is what about the 1 foot gap between the cement and foundation that didn't get slurry pumped up under the foundation?? I am sure within a short time we will have the dirt compacted and another gap between the foundation and the ground. Then we will have to pay another foundation company to level our house again.
We have had 3 or 4 friends come asking us who did our work, and we refuse to recommend them.

Concrete Mudjacking questions, answered by experts
Most states and municipalities don’t require concrete mudjacking companies to carry a specific license, but they usually need to have a general contractor’s license, and they should be fully insured. The only exception is if the mudjacking company provides foundation repairs as well, or if it offers mudjacking for home foundations. In that case, they will typically need a foundation repair contractor’s license. You can check state requirements and then use Angi’s license lookup tool to confirm that a company is properly licensed to provide mudjacking services in your area.
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.
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.
Costs range from $500 to $1,500, depending on the size and condition of the area.
Common issues with concrete that may require professional repair or resurfacing include cracks, spalling, uneven surfaces, and weather damage.
