  • Grinding is a short term fix.  It doesn't fill the void to correct the original problem so settling will continue requiring more grinding.
  • Grinding weakens the good pad so eventually both will require replacement.
  • Grinding does not address the uneven surface issue causing problems with snow removal. 
  • Grinding weakens the edge, makes the surface irregular and should not be done if there is more than 3/4 inch settlement.
  • Grinding won't work if the surface is slanted.
  • Proper grinding requires a surface coating needing 48+ hours to dry.
  • Concrete Jacking fills the void that caused the problem so it doesn't return.
  • Concrete Jacking takes less than an hour and accepts traffic immediately.
  • When raised, the surface is smooth with no distortion.
  • Concrete Jacking costs and actually solves the problem.
  • Average replacement costs for one concrete pad are between $200 and $400. 
  • Concrete Jacking is guaranteed.  Ask your grinding contractor if they guarantee that no further settling will occur...
