Frequently Asked Questions
Here are our answers to some common questions about our concrete raising services
- What is concrete raising or mudjacking?
Concrete raising or mudjacking is a process where we lift and level sunken concrete slabs by injecting a grout mixture beneath them, restoring their stability and appearance.
- How long will the concrete raising process take?
The duration varies based on the job scope, but typically projects are scheduled about 2-3 business weeks out. Most jobs take just one day of on-site work.
- Is mudjacking right for all concrete problems?
It's ideal for settling or sunken concrete slabs. However, for severely damaged or crumbling concrete, replacement might be necessary. We can advise on the best approach during our assessment.
- Why choose mudjacking over poly foam?
Mudjacking uses a natural slurry that provides a firm bond with the base soils, is more reliable, and supports future re-leveling if needed. Poly foam can pose heat and moisture sensitivity issues, potentially leading to more problems down the line.
- How soon can I use my driveway or walkway after mudjacking?
You can typically use your driveway or walkway just a few hours after completion, allowing the mixture time to settle and harden.
- What should I expect during the assessment and quoting process?
Our team will come out to assess the job within 2-3 business days, provide a detailed estimate, and upon your approval, schedule the work. We maintain open communication throughout the process.

Real stories from those who experienced solid results
Professional and quick to respond. Valerie assessed my issue and to my surprise 1. Calmed my nerves that the erosion of dirt under my garage foundation was normal 2. That the issue was minor and could be fixed DIY with a bag of concrete. I really appreciate that level of honesty and telling me what I needed to do to fix myself and all for the low low cost of a free estimate. Would recommend to anyone who wants an honest assessment of what you are dealing with. Thank you.
Great company. Excellent work , communication , and execution. Extremely professional. Would absolutely recommend them and would use again in the future if needed.
It was a few months back, life has been busy, but CPL raised my back patio that was sunk and slanted towards my foundation. Their work solved my issue and it’s a huge quality of life improvement. Puddles are no longer present for days on end after rain. I’m very happy with the service provided by Shane and his team! Five stars!
Shane and his crew did an awesome job. All the way from Lakeville MN to Hudson WI for what I think would be a small job for them. They worked quickly and cleaned up nicely afterward. Don't bother with the places that use foam for lifting that will deteriorate over time and make your concrete contaminated (not recyclable); use these guys instead.
Very good work. Professional staff, made sure I knew the plan, and knocked it out timely. Would highly recommend these folks!
Concrete Pressure Lifting is a family-owned business that clearly operates with integrity at the forefront of their operation. When they arrived to quote the job, they were transparent in their pricing, did not attempt to add unnecessary accessorials, and moved us up on their schedule when an opening became available. On the day they arrived to perform the work, the crew was very respectful of the property, clearly communicated what was to take place, were very cordial and professional in their approach, and left clear wait-time instructions to ensure the work properly cured so that we get the most out of the repair. If you have concrete issues that need addressing, I highly recommend you contact Concrete Pressure Lifting.
