"They cleaned up after the job."
When your concrete slabs, driveways, and steps become uneven, a cost effective solution is mudjacking. Also known as mud jacking, concrete raising, concrete lifting, or slabjacking, this concrete leveling technique involves injecting concrete material below the sunken concrete, raising it to the point where it is level again. When looking for a mudjacking company near you, be sure to get read reviews, get multiple quotes, and ask for references to help ensure you find someone who will do the job right.
