Uneven or sunken concrete is unsafe and unsightly, but not difficult to repair. First we drill small holes in the settled area. We then use a high-pressure injection system, which pumps stiff liquid grout under the bad concrete and lift slabs back into place. After lifting the holes are patched. Most jobs take only a day. Within 24 hours, you can walk or drive over the repaired area.

Slab jacking looks deceptively simple, and to many homeowners it appears to be the "magic bullet" they need to repair their foundations. Imagine something heavy -- a boat in drydock. Resting, it weighs several thousand pounds. Your objective is to raise it three feet. Since you do not happen to have a crane handy, the simple approach is to put water under it. It floats, raises, and you are done. You have lifted a heavy object hydraulically. Raising a concrete slab is not exactly the same, but close enough for our comparison.
Major structural problems can lead to cracks, leaks and other issues with the rest of the home. Foundation Pieringis a process that disperses the weight of your home and foundation to more solid surfaces deeper down in the soil. Leveling up your foundation and allowing it to be supported can help to address these issues. Support piers can add the resistant strength of bedrock, or other load bearing strata to the foundation of your home. All of these are signs that the foundation is the first place to look to solve your basement issues.
