Engineered Concrete Lifting & Leveling - also referred to as mud jacking or slabjacking, engineered concrete lifting, etc, is a process of lifting concrete slabs that have settled by drilling holes through the slab and pumping a sand or cement mixture under the slabs. Mud jacking allows the slab to be maneuvered back to it's original location. You can see an animated example of the mudjacking process below.
Fill Voids - Frequently, foundation problems and concrete slab problems are the result of the perimeter of the foundation or concrete slab settling. In many instances, it becomes necessary (and cost effective) to fill this void to properly support the concrete slab or building foundation. Mud jacking to fill this type of void is accomplished by drilling small holes through the concrete surface and pumping a mixture of cementitious grout into the void, which then raises the concrete slab or building foundation.

Shifting, Sinking, and Leaking Foundations are almost always connected to a soil issue. Soil stability is crucial to the structural integrity of any residential or commercial building foundation. No matter how welll-constructed they are, foundations cannot stay in place if the soil beneath is unsettled and susceptible to shifting or prone to saturation.
Increased seasonal changes compound the problems, along with soil saturation caused from drought, trees, and sewer leaks. Cosmetic repairs can be made, but the money is wasted if the root of the concern is not addressed.
Even new construction buildings are susceptible to foundation damage as a result of soil instability. In recent years, homes and industrial building have been constructed where it was not previously possible. There are a number of preventive measures that can be applied prior to construction and afterward. While dampproofing and waterproofing are always recommended, they are not effective in preventing soil issues.
It is always best to have any questionable symptoms of foundation compromise evaluated by a qualified foundation repair contractor. The advantage of having an analysis done is that a professional will be able to determine the difference between a structural or cosmetic issue and recommend the appropriate resolution.
