Has one of the concrete slabs on your property begun sinking into the ground? If so, you’ll want to act quickly to avoid any injury to passersby. Fortunately, homeowners throughout Wausau, Wisconsin, can turn to ABT Foundation Solutions, Inc. — a trusted foundation repair company — for expert concrete leveling services.

Polyjacking vs. Mudjacking

If you’ve started researching concrete leveling techniques, you’ve likely come across a repair method known as “mudjacking.” Mudjacking involves drilling holes through a damaged concrete slab and then pumping in a mixture of cement, sand, soil, and water until the slab is once again level. Unfortunately, because the cement mixture is so heavy (100 pounds per cubic foot!), it exerts a lot of pressure on the soil below the slab and can cause the soil to collapse, resulting in the same problem all over again.

Fortunately, there’s a superior concrete leveling alternative called “polyjacking,” and that’s what we use at ABT Foundation Solutions, Inc. Polyjacking is similar to mudjacking — it involves pumping a material through the concrete slab in question — but it uses polyurethane foam instead of cement. This foam weighs only a few pounds per cubic foot, so it poses less of a risk for soil settling. Plus, it lasts considerably longer and requires smaller drill holes.
