This trip hazzard caused a broken leg for one customer.

After lifting, this step is now level and much safer.

The crack in this wall is completely closed after installing the I-Beams.  Now this wall is straight and secure again.

This garage slab was settling and taking the garage with it.

This is the garage after lifting...Notice that the door is now level.

Here you see the slab and garage structure re-leveled.

Concrete Slab and Foundation Lifting – Concrete lifting, otherwise known as mud-jacking or slab-jacking is a proven process that has been around since the 1930's. Since all concrete is subject to cracking and settling, lifting concrete has become a well-known alternative to replacement. The process begins by strategically drilling into the concrete slab, injecting a slurry mixture that contains portland cement, and then patching the hole using concrete. This injected slurry mixture does three things.  First, it sreads out to fill all voids under the concrete, second it compacts the ground under the slab, and third it lifts the concrete to its previous, original height.  The holes drilled are usually 2 to 4 feet apart and are approximately 1¼” inches in diameter. The portland cement is added to the injected mixture to ensure our material resists erosion and rodents. The concrete used to patch your holes is carefully mixed and applied to attempt to match the color and texture of your concrete as close as possible. A slight difference in color is typical, however. Some of the benefits of concrete lifting verses replacement - Most jobs are completed in one day and can be used while the work is being performed. Typically there is no disturbance to the surrounding yard and landscaping. The color / texture of your concrete will remain the same. Lifting your concrete slab helps to compact the soil under your slab and prevent future settling. The cost of lifting your concrete is usually much lower than replacing, especially for larger slabs.

Are your walls cracked, leaning or caving in? We can straighten and/or stabilize basement walls with our superior 4” steel I-beams. After an on-site evaluation, the I-beams are custom built and ready to install when we arrive. They are primered gray and ready to paint if you desire. These beams are placed vertically at approximately 5 feet intervals. The bottom of the beams are anchored into the existing concrete floor using steel pins. The top of the beam is anchored to the existing structure of the home after being hydrologically maneuvered into position. These beams then become a permanent part of the homes structure. ALL JACKED UP Concrete Lifters offers a lifetime warranty against the structural failure or breakage of these steel I-beams.

Is your basement plagued with water and moisture problems? We offer basement de-watering systems that will protect your home, valuables, and basement walls from water damage. Our baseboard channel system relieves your basement walls from the strain of hydrostatic pressure (which usually leads to bowing and cracking) and channels that water away for proper discharge. The water collected can be routed into a sump pump or floor drain. In addition to installing your basement de-watering system, we also install sump pumps or other drainage options as required by the needs of your home. Our paintable baseboard channel is approximately 4 inches tall and protrudes from the wall approximately 1½ inches.
