They're different tools. Mudjacking-style leveling pumps a natural slurry beneath the slab; foam injects an expanding synthetic. A‑1's ControlLevel™ system gives the technician live control of the lift. A‑1 Kalamazoo offers both and will recommend the right one for your slab.

Mudjacking is the traditional name for lifting concrete by pumping material beneath it. ControlLevel™ is A‑1's modern version: a limestone slurry, specialized equipment, and a slow, controlled lift.

Raising settled concrete back to a safer, more even position without tearing it out. Also called concrete lifting, slabjacking, mudjacking, or raising.

Small holes are drilled in the slab, material is pumped beneath to fill the voids, and the slab is guided back to position. With ControlLevel™, the technician monitors and adjusts the entire lift.

Most repairs can last for the life of your concrete. Longevity depends on the conditions beneath the slab, drainage, and upkeep like caulking and sealing.

If the slab is still solid, leveling usually wins: a fraction of the cost, done in a day. If it's crumbling or structural, replacement is the honest answer, and we'll tell you.
