What is Concrete Leveling?
Definition
The process of raising sunken concrete slabs through the use of hydraulic pressure injection where a grout, or other base material, creates a new sub-base by filling voids beneath concrete slabs and hydraulically raising the sunken slab back to grade
Environmentally responsible applicationReuse existing slabsLimestone material is natural, non-toxic

History of Concrete Leveling
1929 Mudjacking Begins – Iowa Hwy Dept
1942 WWII – Navy pumps grout under concrete airfield runways 1959 Airplaco develops “Hydra-Jak” one of the first mudjack pumps for leveling and stabilization
1960 Mud-jacking and slab-jacking through becomes more widely used 1980 for industrial and municipal
applications; various self- contained pumping
systems are developed and refined during this time
1983 Grover Miller invents and patents the A-1 pumping system; a more efficient mid-range self-contained concrete leveling pumping system
