It went great. Wonderful communication on date and time they could accommodate us. The job was done top notch, the sidewalk and steps are great and it’s a pleasure to drive into the garage without having an issue with the sunken apron. I did have one question which was the holes they drilled to raise the areas are quite dark and I was it sure if they would “cure” to a lighter color or not. Greg was quick to respond to my question with a “usually they do”. They also caulked the gaps.
Description of Work: We needed to raise our front walk, fill a void under step and raise concrete apron in front of garage.

Poor workmanship. The concrete sidewalk slab appeared to be binding against the portico step and they had trouble raising it. Greg decided that taking a jackhammer to the joint and creating a 39 inch long jagged edge extending out up to 3 inches was an appropriate solution. This is the entrance to my home. I wanted me sidewalk raised but now need it replaced.

Response from Cement Raising Inc
I sent my crew out to raise the steps and walk, and upon drilling the holes needed to raise the area, discovered that the walk closest to the front stoop was 8” to 12” thick with a lip that went under the stoop. The standard thickness of a slab should be 3 ½” to 4” thick, so there was no way of knowing this. The slab was sloping towards the stoop and needed to be sloped away. My crew tried to saw cut between the walk and the stoop to try and get it to slide by. I had to finish a job I was doing and come over to this job site to help. I tried everything I knew to try to get that slab to slide past the stoop, but because it was so thick, the saw would not cut deep enough to get it to slide by and slant away. I then talked to the [Member Name Removed]'[Member Information Removed] wife and told her the only way to get the slab to slide by would be to drill down between the walk and stoop to free it up since the drill goes that deep. I informed her that it would leave wider areas from the drill bit being 1 ¼” wide, but it was the only way to get the slab to slant away. She gave me the go ahead to do that, and upon drilling it out I was able to get the slab to raise properly and slant away. I finished the job and showed her, and she was happy and proceeded to pay me in full. This was on June 8th, 2021. I never heard from the [Member Name Removed]'[Member Information Removed] that there was any problem with the job, or that he was unhappy, until I received a notification from Angi that he left this review on July 6th, almost a month later. Upon seeing his review, I went to his home to go over the job with him. He was not there, so I called him, and I explained everything about the thickness of the slab, and how it was the only choice I had, and that his wife gave us the okay to do what we did. He said he understood, but didn't like the looks of the holes, which he had covered with sand to hide the caulking we put in, even though I had informed him that it would of all weathered in over time. He said he would think about it and probably take the review down.

Price was way lower than we expected. The crew showed up as we were leaving the house for an errand and were gone when we returned; less than an hour. We couldn’t be happier with how it turned out!
Description of Work: We needed the slab in front of our steps raised. Greg suggested raising it and 3 others for a uniform look and to raise the grade away from the house.

I had to talk with them several times to get the job done right. I wouldn’t hire them again. The price was good. In the end it seems like they did a good job but it just took a lot of haggling to get them to do a complete job. It took some haggling to get them to come back and they did the job twice over. It took a few weeks to get completed. To improve, they should listen to the customer, do the job they agree on with the customer. When they finally got it done, it seemed to be good.

The provider told me he forgot and was not sure why he didn't include my property but that he would call the association and straighten the issue out. He has yet to respond with any bid about my issue since.
Description of Work: On May 22nd the company provided me with a bid for work to be done around my home. In June the provider was asked to do a bid for the entire association.

The men came and immediately raised the blocks that were in question plus another block that leveled my sidewalk. They cleaned up any mess and gave me directions for the next 24 hours to make sure it sets well. My sidewalk is great, which I realized when I had to shovel - no spots that were raised and forced me to pick up the shovel or mess with the snow blower. Why did wait so long to do this project! It is worth the money and within a half an hour, maybe more, it was completed. I love the result.
Description of Work: My front sidewalk leading to my front door needed to be raised because of safety reasons plus water and/or ice formed because of 2-3 slabs of concrete were not lever and one being at least an inch or two lower that the adjacent one.

I put out several requests for bids. Greg was the only one who took the time to come to my house to look at the sidewalk in need of repair. The others bid based on a photo, which showed the broken sidewalk but did not show the complication of the slightly sunken driveway. Greg actually suggested that I find someone to replace the sidewalk rather than having him do the mud-jacking. Quite an honest guy! However, I eventually decided to take the mud-jacking approach and hired him even though his was not the lowest bid. He did a great job on short notice. Top notch!!!
Description of Work: He mud-jacked a broken section of sidewalk near the driveway, which was a little bit sunken, complicating the effort since the broken section need to match up with the other section of sidewalk as well as the driveway.

Came out to check for hollow spots under basement floor, after sewer rooter guy said to do so. Pleasant knowledgeable and honest. He said we didn't need the work due to what was happening to our floor was not serious.He also looked at our steps but they are too damaged to mudjack and he just said they needed eventual replacement.

I had 3 walk slabs leading up the house that were sloping towards the foundation and created a trip hazard. I also discovered large voids underneath the front stoop and wanted to fill to help some water drainage issues along the foundation. Went with Cement Raising based on reviews and quotes I received. They weren't the cheapest, but seemed the most responsive to the issues I was facing. Was able to negotiate a little better price than originally quoted. They were pretty backed up and said it would take about a month to get scheduled, which was fine with me. I received a phone call the day before they were coming out to do the work, again, fine with me, just wasn't going to be home at the time. The work itself, by nature, is relatively messy with the mud they use. They drill small holes in the slabs and pump material underneath to level them. I was happy with the end product and looked ok, a bit of mud residue was on the stoop and in the lawn (which I was expecting). My neighbors were home at the time and told me a little more about the work. They used my outside faucet and didn't hook it up very well, which was leaking/draining around my foundation (as noted above, I've been having drainage issues around my foundation). My neighbor was nice enough to tighten the hose connection to stop the leak. Apparently their pump had broke in the service truck that took them some time to fix. The truck was parked in the street and created a bit of a traffic hazard during the repair. There was a lot more mud residue on the driveway which my neighbors had asked them to clean. Overall, end result was good, would have liked a little more attention and care to the details during the actual work.

They came out and were very timely for the estimate. They told me it would be 3-4 weeks to get back to the area as the rain was keeping them from keeping on schedule, which was no issue. They called the night before they came out. They arrived on time and started to get to work. They drilled 2 holes in the concrete and started filling the hole underneath the slab. Once it was completed they sealed the two holes they drilled and smoothed it out. They sealed between the cement slab and the garage floor and also a corner that went into the house area so that there would be no further leaking into my home. When it was all said and done, it was great and they were very meticulous with their clean up. I definitely will use them again and recommend them to anyone else. I am extremely happy with the end result.

We had used Cement Raising, Inc.'s service a number of years ago and were very satisfied with the result. After a couple of really bad winters and a failure on my part to keep cracks in the driveway filled, we experienced some more heaving of the slabs due to freeze/thaw conditions and some undermining from excessive water erosion. I called to make an appointment for an estimate in early June, 2014. And within only a couple of days had a detailed 'no-pressure' estimate. The work was scheduled for later that month. On the day the work was scheduled Greg and his assistant were right on time, got set-up and ready very quickly, and got the job done very well and fast allowing me to enjoy the rest of my day. My wife and I were extremely impressed with how level the driveway ended up considering it's age and all of the cracking of the slab sections - it now looks like a completed jigsaw puzzle, not just a bunch of pieces. They were VERY respectful of our property, and cleaned up exceptionally well (drilling in concrete can create quite a lot of dust.) In addition to our driveway repair. I had them raise and level three sections of my mother's sidewalk, that job, just like ours, came out wonderfully too! I am not looking forward to shoveling next winter, but I am looking forward to not catching my shovel on the protruding edges of my driveway. If time and Mother Nature again make it necessary for more concrete leveling, we will certainly use Cement Raising, Inc. again!
Description of Work: Raised and leveled six sections of 40 year old cement driveway. Most sections of the driveway had cracked or split into multiple pieces over the years.

Provider was very prompt in coming out to give us an estimate, and his price was well below that of the next closest bid. We had to delay our project by a few weeks because a neighbor had some yard work going on, but this was not a problem. In the end, the job was done to our satisfaction, the caulking was clean and straight. I would certainly recommend Cement Raising, Inc. to others.

Cement Raising mud jacked the driveway apron and front sidewalk and caulked the joints. When they were done, the concrete was restored to the proper level in both places. The caulking job was adequate, but not any better than what I could have done myself. Unfortunately the repairs to the front sidewalk are quite visible (lots of drill holes in a small space), so I'm not sure that mud jacking was an appropriate solution. They were pretty messy. They dislodged the sump pump pipe and got white goop on the grass, the shrubs, the decorative rocks, the street, the entire length of the hose they borrowed, and a bare patch of soil in the neighbors yard.

Response from Cement Raising Inc
I the owner, personally did [members name removed]'s job, so I know it turned out and was cleaned up as good as possible. I always leave a work site cleaner than when I came, and that's what I tell all my employees. As she stated, everything was restored to proper level, but unfortunately the holes are just part of the mudjacking process and can't be avoided. The small holes are patched with fresh concrete, so they do not blend in until they cure and have time to weather. The material we use is a white calcium carbonate powder which after washed off and cleaned from areas can and will leave a white film when dried. It will wash and wear off in a very short time, and there never is any permanent staining to any items ever. I wish as a very picky perfectionist business owner, people would call me first, so I could explain and rectify any issues they have, before they put a bad grade on Angies List. I personally met with [members name removed] after the job was completed to make sure everything was good, as I do with all customers before getting paid, and I received a check from her after receiving her approval, so I feel if there was a problem it would have been fixed right then and there, but unfortunately I was never given the opportunity before this review.

He left a mess when he was done and we were very unsatisfied. We were really disappointed and we believe he said he could do the work yet he couldn't do it. We gave him a check but when we went out and saw the work he had done, we cancelled payment on the check. The price had he done what we thought he was going to do would certainly have been a fair price. When we called him to see what he could do to help, he was nasty. When we expressed our dissatisfaction to him, he got very defensive. Supposedly the guy is going to come back to clean up the mess because in a way, the work is not finished.

Response from Cement Raising Inc
I personally, the owner of Cement Raising, did the work on this job from start to finish. I met {removed member name} at the bid. After going over what we could do for him and his sidewalk, and answering all his questions, he signed up for the job on the spot. I came out to do the work, and did exactly what was on the proposal to do. Unfortunately {removed member name} as he told me later, assumed that we could do something that was impossible to do, which was to slide the entire walk closer to the porch while raisng. We can only raise concrete straight up not side to side. I did exactly what I had explained to him I would do when I gave him the bid. After completion of the work, I met with {removed member name} and showed her the work I did, and explained to her everything that needed to be done after the raising. There was a gap between the walk and porch which she was concerned with, and I explained to her a solution for that. I also explained to her the need to build up the landscaping levels around her walk also, to cover up our material coming out from under the walk, due to the walk being raised to proper level, and the landscape being settled. After her approval she paid me in full with a check. I was contacted by {removed member name} by phone, and he was very upset with the whole job and was being very rude and condescending to me, saying he didnt't understand how I could have an A+ rating for all those years on Angies List etc. My motto not only is, a clean site is a happy site, but, the customer is always right, so I told him after trying to explain to him how we couldn't slide the walk in and that the material coming out the sides of the walk needed to be landscaped over, like I explained to his wife before getting paid, that I would come back out and make everything right. He said to me, you damn well better! I responded with, I told you sir I will so you don't have to curse at me. You tell me who was being rude and nasty. I went back out the following week to make everything right, and once again he was not there. Mrs{removed member name} was there, and I tried to explain what I had talked about to Mr {removed member name}about the job, and she became upset with me, saying I never explained the finished job to her when I had, and like I said got paid. In her defense she is fighting a terrible disease MS, and having a daughter with juvenile diabetes, 3 kids with celiac disease, and a sister in law dying from huntingtons disease, I totally understand having bad days. I tried to contact her husband to talk to him about fixing everything, and he was not available. I went back to Mrs {removed member name}to ask her what she wanted me to do and she told me to get off her property, not being allowed to fix the things I came out to fix to make them happy. I finally heard back from Mr {removed member name}, and after him cancelling the first check as he stated, he nicely agreed to send me another check minus $60.00 for the things he felt weren't done properly. I agreed with that, to satisfy the customer, which is my goal at every job, and I received the check a few days later.
