Concrete Raising & Leveling in Central Minnesota

Overtime, concrete slabs can sink or rise, becoming unleveled creating trip hazards and ourdoor structure damage. Concrete homes and buildings can slant towards the foundation, allowing for water to leak into basements. Slabjacking, also known as Mudjacking, is a restorative technique for the purpose of repairing this type of broken concrete by raising and leveling the concrete slabs around residential, commercial, agriculture and municipal properties.

Our process is simple: we drill holes into the concrete that are 1 inch in circumference throughout the repairable area. Then we pressure inject an eco-friendly specialized sanded grout, forcing the concrete slab to become level with the surrounding area. We never use foam due to its lack of long term stability and that it costs more. The drilled holes are then patched with cement matching its surrounding area. The repaired area can be used almost immediately.

Slabjacking requires no demolition, this saves you money and time. Raise it, don’t replace it!

Reasons Why Concrete Becomes Unleveled

Aggregate Expansion

Cracking due to chemical reaction. Carbon dioxide in the air causes carbonation contributing to the break out in the concrete.

Leaching

When water flows through cracks in concrete, water may dissolve various minerals present in the hardened cement.

Stress Cracks

Caused by corrosion of reinforcement bars; expansion of corrosion can induce mechanical stress causing cracks.

How Nissen Slabjacking Raises Concrete

first step drill through sunken concrete

A pattern of 1″ holes are drilled throughout the sunken concrete slab.

second step pump mud into void under concrete

Grout is pumped to fill up the void and becomes pressurized this causes the slab to be raised to the desired height.

third step patch drill holes

The holes are then patched with cement and will closely match the current concrete. The slab can be used almost immediately.
