Cost Benefits of Concrete Raising vs. Concrete Replacement

Benefit #1

Reduction in Labor & Service Costs

One of the main benefits of concrete raising compared to concrete replacement, is the reduction in cost you get to enjoy. To replace a concrete slab, you must hire a crew to demolish the slab, remove and discard it, stabilize the foundation below where it used to be, repour and let cure the new cement.

This is a lot of man power, hours, and materials, which ultimately equate to a much larger bill, and sometimes days to weeks worth of waiting.

Concrete raising lowers your overall costs, sometimes by up to 50% less than replacing the same concrete slabs, and is exponentially quicker in both completion and curing time.

Benefit #2

Minimal Impact on Surroundings

When replacing a slab of concrete, you must use (often large and heavy) equipment to demolish and re-pour the slab. This may force you to move / reorganize your warehouse or factory, or damage the landscape that surrounds the slab.

Concrete raising has little to no impact on your environmental surroundings. Equipment is parked off site, and has the ability to reach even hard-to-reach places, meaning you don’t need to work around the crew, they work around you.

Benefit #3

Minimize Potential for Injury

Whether you own a commercial building, or a tenant-occupied residence, the potential for injury greatly increases when you have uneven or compromised concrete slabs on your property. Replacing concrete slabs can be a multi-day, or sometimes even multi-week period, which again, presents the possibility for your workers, tenants or passerby’s to fall subject to injury.

Concrete raising projects generally last 2-3 hours (sometimes longer, depending on the severity of the issue) and are ready immediately upon completion. Downtime, cost, and potential for injury are minimized substantially when you choose to raise and repair, compared to replacement.
