- Cracks or settling in swimming pools

Concrete Lifting Testimonials
After multiple companies came to look at my sidewalk and drive way and no luck we called Elite. They where very professional and knowledgeable. They gave me recommendations and we went the direction they suggested. We are happy we did. No more tripping hazards and the esthetic image of our drive way is much more appealing. We would recommend Elite Concrete Lifting to all of our family and friends that are in the need of this service.
Nate and his crew did an awesome job. They were timely in their work and made a huge impact on our sidewalk. If you need concrete lifted this is your team. Fast, affordable and good customer service.
Elite Concrete Lifting did a great job of void filling under our driveway and back patio. Nate was responsive and informative in the process. Elite even honored the fee quote (without my request) when the void required more fill material than estimated to complete the work.
Concrete Lifting Questions & Answers
What is mud jacking?
Mud jacking, also known as slab jacking or pressure grouting, is a cost-effective method used to lift and stabilize sunken or uneven concrete. The process involves injecting a slurry mixture beneath the concrete slab to raise it to its original level.
How does mud jacking work?
The mud jacking process begins with drilling small holes in the sunken concrete. A slurry mixture, usually made of water, soil, and cement, is then pumped through these holes. The mixture fills the voids beneath the slab, raising it to the desired level.
What types of concrete surfaces can be lifted with mud jacking?
Mud jacking can be used to lift a variety of concrete surfaces, including:
- Driveways
- Sidewalks
- Patios
- Garage floors
- Basement floors
- Pool decks
Is mud jacking a permanent solution?
While mud jacking is an effective and long-lasting solution, it may not be permanent. Factors such as soil conditions and the weight of the concrete can affect the longevity of the repair. However, it can extend the life of your concrete for many years.
How long does the mud jacking process take?
The mud jacking process is relatively quick and can often be completed in a few hours. The exact time will depend on the size and condition of the area being lifted.
How soon can I use my concrete after mud jacking?
You can typically use the lifted concrete within 24 hours after the mud jacking process is complete. This allows enough time for the slurry mixture to set and stabilize.
Is mud jacking environmentally friendly?
Yes, mud jacking is considered environmentally friendly. The slurry mixture used in the process is made from natural materials, and the technique recycles and preserves existing concrete structures, reducing the need for new materials.
How does mud jacking compare to concrete replacement?
Mud jacking is usually more cost-effective and quicker than concrete replacement. It avoids the disruption and mess associated with tearing out and replacing concrete, making it a preferred option for many homeowners.
Are there any limitations to mud jacking?
Mud jacking is not suitable for all situations. It may not be effective for concrete surfaces that are severely cracked or damaged. Additionally, it may not be the best solution for areas with poor soil conditions that could cause the concrete to sink again.
How much does mud jacking cost?
The cost of mud jacking varies depending on the size and condition of the area to be lifted. On average, it is significantly less expensive than concrete replacement, making it a cost-effective solution for many homeowners.
How can I determine if my concrete needs mud jacking?
If you notice uneven, sunken, or cracked concrete surfaces around your property, it may be time to consider mud jacking. A professional evaluation can help determine if mud jacking is the right solution for your needs.
