raise rite mud pump brands

From mudpumps to automatic, volumetric mixer/hopper units to polyurethane foam, truck and trailer systems, we continuously research, innovate and produce the most effective and efficient products on the market.

That fortuitous weekend of labor was the start of it all. The growth and innovations have followed, whether it was the invention of the first hydraulic mud pump or the introduction of polyurethane systems at the entrepreneur level.

RaiseRite Concrete Lifting, Inc. began in 1974, by myself and two others, with no money to buy our equipment so we rented it from my father-in-law. Our first truck was a 1951 Chevy flatbed, we affectionately named "Bullwinkle". By September, RaiseRite needed to add another crew to cover Green Bay.

In 1978, I knew there had to be a more efficient and less strenuous way to raise concrete, so I developed the first hydraulic mudpump. The next year, sales were well on their way as was HMI as we began manufacturing the "new" hydraulic mudjacking pumps. Today, HMI continues to manufacture mudjacking pumps and systems, polyurethane foam lifting systems, and polyurethane foam.

Monthly, HMI hosts Discovery and Training Seminars either at our Manitowoc training facility or various metropolitan areas throughout the United States. These seminars offer individuals looking to add to their existing business or start-up a business, the opportunity to experience "hands-on" how to raise concrete. As a supplier and trainer, HMI has helped put over 1200 families into business and have contributed to the employment of over 10,000 people.

I am still retaining the position of CEO, but I work side by side with my two sons: Jeff-President HMI and Brian-President of RaiseRite. Over the past 40 years, we have lifted and leveled 14,000,000 sq. ft. of concrete participating in over 70,000 projects. HMI"s equipment has lifted and leveled 240,000,000 sq. ft. of concrete on every continent, but Antarctica. I look at this anniversary not being about us at HMI/RaiseRite. It is all about you-our customers-Thank you again!

About HMI/Raise Rite: HMI/Raise Rite has two Manitowoc locations: 4803 Leonard Lane and 1025 E. Albert Dr. employing approximately 30 individuals. In addition to concrete raising, RaiseRite has a foundation piering and waterproofing division. For more information, please use the contact information and links provided below.

Mudjacking is a well-known solution for lifting uneven concrete slabs or concrete patio stairways back to level, but more recent technology utilizing polyurethane foam rather than a mud-cement-slurry mixture brings about the question: what’s more effective? Below, we’ll get into the details of mudjacking versus PolyLevel foam jacking.

When the soil beneath your concrete compacts or washes out, it leaves voids into which heavy concrete slabs sink. These voids need to be filled in order to raise the sunken slabs back to level. It’s at this point that we’re faced with a choice of which method to use: mudjacking or polyurethane foam jacking.

At first glance, mudjacking seems like a pragmatic approach. After all, if soil has compacted or washed away underneath your concrete, doesn’t it make sense to put more soil — or a soil-like slurry of mud and/or cement — under your slabs to replace it?

The first drawback is right in the name: mud. Mud is dirty. And mudjacking is dirty business. It’s dirty when it’s mixed. It’s dirty when it’s pumped. And, it’s dirty when it shoots out from under the slab under pressure (and it will shoot out from under the slab under pressure). Will you trust your contractor to clean up all the spattered mud when they’re done?

In addition to being dirty, mud is, by definition, wet because it contains a lot of water. This is what allows mudjacking contractors to pump it under your concrete slabs. But, just as with regular mud, when it dries, it shrinks as the space once occupied by water becomes empty. This means that your slabs could sink right back down again, sending you right back to square one. But that’s not all. What happens to dried dirt when it gets wet again? That’s right — it turns right back into mud. This can happen to the mudjacking slurry underneath your concrete if you have a heavy rain event. Unless your concrete’s control joints and cracks are perfectly sealed, water can run underneath, turning that dry material right back to mud that can wash out, once again leaving you with voids into which your concrete can settle.

The second main drawback is aesthetic, but it’s no less important. In order to pump the mudjacking slurry underneath your concrete, the contractor will have to drill a series of large ports into your slabs. These need to be wide enough — at least 2” in diameter in most cases — so they don’t restrict the flow of the material. When the job is done, these ports are filled in. As it is virtually impossible to match this fill material with your original concrete, these ports will leave your driveway, patio or pool deck with a strange polka-dot appearance. Wasn’t improving your home’s appearance one of the main reasons you decided to repair your concrete in the first place?

But, the major problem with mudjacking is that it doesn’t address the reason your concrete settled in the first place. Remember how we talked about poorly compacted soil compressing and causing your heavy concrete slabs to sink? Well, what do you think will happen when thousands of pounds of mudjacking slurry is pumped underneath them? That’s right; you’ve just compounded your problem by adding more weight on top of this unstable soil. This can cause your driveway, patio or pool deck to sink even more!

At Lift Rite Leveling, we’ve got a lot of experience with concrete lifting and leveling. Our patented foam is specifically engineered to produce a fast, dense, and skin free material within seconds. You may have heard it referred to as polyjacking or foam jacking, or polyurethane concrete lifting. It is lighter, lasts longer, and environmetntally friendly.

Polyurethane is a lightweight, strong high-density polyurethane foam, developed by our manufacturer Prime Resins and only available to an exclusive network of foundation and concrete repair contractors. It’s pumped beneath concrete slabs through tiny ports about the size of a penny. Initially, 4lb foam flows like water, filling even the smallest cracks and crevices in the soil. It quickly expands and hardens, lifting the concrete slabs above it and compressing the soil around it at the same time. Polyurethane is waterproof, so it will never wash out, and it won’t degrade over time due to temperature extremes. Best of all, our foam cures quickly, allowing your concrete to be used the same day.

Concrete lifting with our Polyurethane expanding foam not only raises concrete slabs, but also compacts the soil around it, creating a stable environment that will ensure that your driveway, patio or pool deck remains level into the foreseeable future. Did we mention that it’s environmentally friendly too? Because it won’t degrade over time, it won’t leach harmful chemicals into the surrounding soils.

The bottom line is, when you’re considering mudjacking or PolyLevel polyjacking… well, there really is no comparison — even when it comes to price. Mudjacking is sometimes less expensive initially. But since it can cause your concrete to sink and settle further over time, you’re likely going to have to pay to have it lifted over and over. Wouldn’t you rather just have it done once and never have to think about it again?

So, let’s recap: Mudjacking is messy, ugly and may make the problem worse. Concrete lifting with expanding PolyLevel foam is clean, aesthetically pleasing and addresses the underlying problems that caused your concrete to sink in the first place.

Mudjacking costs $3 to $6 per square foot, and foam jacking is $5 to $25 per square foot. The average cost of slabjacking to raise a concrete slab is between $511 and $1,790, with most spending $830. Concrete leveling prices depend on the size and condition of the slab and soil conditions.

The two main options to raise concrete are mudjacking and foam leveling. Each has considerable differences and is better suited for specific areas. Mudjacking requires larger holes drilled and costs $3 to $6 per square foot, while the stronger polyurethane foam runs $5 to $25 per square foot.

Mudjacking is a method of lifting a sunken concrete slab by pumping a mud-like mixture under the concrete to make it level again. Mudjacking, also known as "slab jacking" or "concrete leveling," is a quick and cost-effective way to level sinking concrete foundations, sidewalks, patios, and driveways.

The mudjacking process starts by strategically drilling holes 1” to 2” wide and injecting material to fill any voids under the slab, raising the sagging concrete within minutes. Mudjacking is eco-friendly, cures in 24 to 48-hours, and typically costs 25% to 50% less than concrete replacement.

Foam jacking, also known as "polyfoam" or "polyjacking," is a modern version of mudjacking that levels concrete slabs in a less invasive way. High-density polyurethane foam is injected into ⅝” holes that expand to lift and level the sunken concrete. Polyfoam is stronger and longer-lasting than traditional mudjacking.

Concrete leveling foam cures in 30 minutes, is mold and water-resistant, is not subject to erosion, and provides 6,000 to 14,000 lbs. per square foot of support. However, it"s more expensive than mudjacking.

Mudjacking costs $3 to $6 per square foot, while polyurethane foam jacking or PolyLevel runs $5 to $25 per square foot on average. Larger, thicker structures such as porches are more costly per square foot than simple slabs like sidewalks.

Mudjacking works for most situations, although the thick mud may not get into every crack, and the subsoil could sink again over time. One solution is to drill more holes, which increases the invasiveness and limits the effectiveness.

Mudjacking may not be the best option for load-bearing parts of the foundation or if your concrete is severely cracked. Consider using stronger polyfoam or an alternative repair option if:

Repairing a foundation with foam jacking costs $10,000 to $25,000 and up or from $5 and $25 per square foot, depending on the foam type and amount used. Leveling an uneven slab foundation with mudjacking costs $4,500 to $9,000, although mud pumping is weaker and less stable than foam.

Mudjacking a small section of a driveway costs $600 to $1,200 on average. The average cost to level an entire driveway is $1,400 to $2,700 for mudjacking, and between $3,000 and $7,000 for lifting with high-density polyurethane foam.

The average cost of mudjacking 2 to 4 sections of a garage floor is $300 to $900. Raising an entire 2-car garage floor costs $1,100 to $2,200 for mudjacking or between $2,500 and $5,400 for foam injection. Mudjacking a garage floor is cheaper than repouring new concrete or using a self-leveling compound.

Identifying the root cause that made the garage floor sink is vital. If you have a steep slope against the side of the garage where the subsoil has eroded, then you may need steel-jacking or structural foundation repairs with piers instead of mudjacking.

The average cost to level an 800-square-foot basement floor is $2,400 to $4,800 with mudjacking, or between $5,000 and $12,000 with foam jacking. Mudjacking a basement floor is advised for gaps of a few inches between the bottom of the walls and floor—where nails and insulation are visible.

The average cost to mudjack a concrete patio is $450 to $900, or from $3 to $6 per square foot depending on the extent of the damage. Raising a concrete patio slab costs about half as much a pouring a new concrete slab and only takes a few hours.

The average cost of mudjacking a 30" long sidewalk is $300 to $800, or about $50 per section. Sidewalk leveling next to trees, bushes, driveways, or patios costs more and takes extra time due to limited access. Empty voids under the walkway more than a couple of inches deep cost extra.

As long as contractors fix the underlying structural problems that caused the slab to sink, mudjacked sidewalks can last for 20 years. Mudjacking is advised against old walkways due to a higher risk of damage.

Mudjacking concrete steps costs $200 to $400 or about $300 to $800 for foam jacking a 20 to 40 square foot stoop. Mudjacking is typically half the price of completely replacing the steps.

Leveling concrete steps may require drilling through the surrounding slab and sidewalk areas. Otherwise, hydraulic levers raise the steps from the sides, and the slurry or foam is pumped in directly underneath.

Mudjacking a 400-square-foot pool deck costs $1,200 to $2,400 on average or between $2,800 to $6,000 when using concrete leveling foam. Poly foam is excellent for pool decks since it’s the best erosion and water-resistant material. Contractors should know that excessive fill materials in the wrong places could damage underground piping systems leading to the pool.

Any water drainage issues, lack of gutters, large trees, or plumbing leaks that caused the concrete to sink must be mitigated before mudjacking to ensure long term results.

Reputable mudjacking companies use an electronic elevation survey, or a Ground Penetrating Radar Scanning (GPR) system to inspect the subsoil and measure the cavity size before estimating and drilling. GPR provides a more accurate estimate and helps professionals avoid in-floor obstacles such as plumbing and wiring.

Mudjacking fill can contain cement, limestone, clay, or sand-based grout. The materials used dictate the weight-bearing capacity and longevity. Low-quality slurry that’s mostly mud and sand doesn"t last as long. Ask your contractor for a high-quality fill that maintains the concrete elevation longer.

Mudjacking fill contains water, which can cause the concrete slab to shift while curing. Once the mudjacking fill is fully dry, it contracts slightly, making it less stable than polyurethane lifting foam.

Heavy mudjacking fill material adds a burden to a poorly compacted subgrade, which can cause the slab to sink again. However, polyjacked slabs rarely sink again.

Sand pumping costs $3 to $7 per square foot or between $550 to $1,000 to level a 12" x 12" concrete driveway slab. Sandjacking costs about 50% less than installing a new slab. Sandjacking is a variation of mudjacking that uses dry limestone sand to lift concrete slabs.

Sandjacking is typically noninvasive and doesn"t require drilling holes through the slab if the fill can be pumped in from under the sides. Sandjacking is recommended in areas where the soil is often wet. The fill compacts more and allows for better drainage. Sandjacking has no curing time and is ready to use right away.

PolyLevel costs about $15 per square foot or around 30% to 40% more than standard mudjacking. PolyLevel is a patented, high-density polyurethane foam used for heavy-duty concrete stabilization projects like home foundation and driveway work. This polyfoam cures in as few as 30 minutes.

Mudjacking lasts 5 to 10 years on average, depending on the subsoil base below. PolyLevel foam doesn’t break down like mud fill and lasts much longer. Still, both mudjacking and polyjacking can sink without a stabilized subsoil. Contractors should work to prevent future subsoil erosion to increase longevity.

Mudjacking can lift between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds per square foot, depending on the type of foam used. These polyurethane foams are stronger than bedrock and provide more than enough support for most homes and slabs.

Mudjacking is used successfully to level foundations with a relatively noninvasive procedure. Mudjacking only requires several 1” to 2” holes to be drilled into the foundation without damaging the surrounding landscape. This technique costs half as much as removing and replacing your existing foundation.

The average concrete leveling project is completed in one day or less. Mudjacking a small concrete pad takes around 5 hours, and leveling a sunken basement takes about 30 hours. Mudjacking takes anywhere from a few hours to a few days to cure, depending on the project"s size.

Most insurance policies exclude coverage for mudjacking, foundation cracking, or a house sinking. Homeowner’s insurance typically covers foundation damage due to natural disasters or other issues such as plumbing. For new homes under warranty, the builder may be responsible for mudjacking expenses.

DIY concrete leveling projects are possible for concrete slabs 4 square feet or less. Anything larger requires an experienced contractor with mudjacking equipment. Concrete slabs of all sizes are extremely heavy. Without adequate weight-bearing equipment and careful preparation, you risk breaking the slab.

Concrete leveling foam kits cost $50 to $700 and are suitable for small concrete crack-filling repairs. This method is only a cosmetic solution and doesn’t raise or level the concrete. Foam kits are epoxy or polyurethane mixes that are applied with a caulking gun to hide the appearance of cracks.

Self-leveling concrete costs $1 to $5 per square foot if you install it yourself, which is about half the price of mudjacking. Only pour self-leveling cement on slabs that have sunken an inch or less, and avoid using it on basement floors.

Most areas don"t have mudjacking pump rentals available for the general public because local laws require a contractor’s license. New foam and mudjacking equipment costs $4,000 to $10,000. The mud slurry fill, power drills, and extension hoses are sold separately.

Polyjacking equipment generally has an extra heating component to warm the fill up to 90°F before sending it through the high-pressure pump that combines the poly-spray with a special hardening agent right inside the nozzle.

Mudjacking is an equipment-intensive project that requires a specialized professional. Be sure your contractor has up to date licensing, insurance, and bonding before signing a contract. Insurance is necessary to protect you accidental property damage or injuries that may occur.

Check their online reviews and experience. The best mudjacking companies have at least 5 years of experience with great reviews on HomeGuide and Google.

Don"t let contractors overcharge by purposely overestimating the amount of fill. They may not refund the balance if they use less filler. Polyurethane pumps have a gauge that tracks the amount of foam pumped. Check the gauge before they start and after they finish, and compare with the pricing in the contract.
