"Our project started in March. It was not finished. We had to keep calling for someone to finish. A diagram was made of what would be done and how much it was going to cost. Shims were supposed to be put in. We showed it to one of the many different people from AFS. One guy, Todd, I believe his name is, told us for 6,000.00 we could get shims in. The guys shot holes through our skirting around the house. The first patch job was a dark grey. These aren't the only places they shot through. Now its cracking also. How is this possibly great work for almost 10,000.00!? The last guy to come out hasn't been back since Oct. Knoxville AFS is terrible! The last guy was here in Oct and not only are they not answering calls, they don't call us back."

Those degrees, combined with field experience, have opened an opportunity to streamline a price-conscious, quality product for the customer.
"David Shaw of Concretewrks followed up with me within 24 hours of my first contact to him. He came to our house and provided a professionally prepared written estimate several days later. The driveway work actually started about a week later and was completed in two weeks, a little longer than planned due to several rain delays. Our driveway exceeds our expectations and the price was very reasonable. David suggested adding a slight tint to the border pavers and it made a subtle and very attractive contrast. The whole job was well done. David and his team were very friendly and worked hard to complete the project promptly. I’m glad our neighbors recommended Concreterwrks and we pass forward the endorsement. Nancy and Roger Dexter"

H&S Concrete Services is the one to call for your projects, Commercial or Residential. -Driveways -Sidewalks / Steps -Basements -Footers -Concrete Pads -Concrete Porches .....And More! We are 100% Family owned and operated with Over 40 Years Experience!
"We hired H&S Concrete to do a concrete patio and steps. They did great work. I am happy with the results, but not happy with the mess they left behind. They left several big concrete slabs in our front yard that we are not able to move and left the concrete that ran out from under the wood frame around the steps and we are not able to get that up, so the steps look bad. We were told they would be back to clean up when they finished the job on 8/13/24, it's 9/25/24 and they have not been back and not answering texts. We are getting ready to start another job right where these concrete slabs are laying and will now probably have to pay someone to have them removed because H&S won't come clean up. - I answered "no" about hiring again, but if they would come and clean up the mess then the answer would be "yes" I would hire again."

Mudjacking and foam jacking differ significantly in both materials and methods. Mudjacking uses a cement-based slurry to fill voids beneath a slab, while foam jacking uses expanding polyurethane foam delivered under high pressure to achieve superior structural support. This material distinction enhances load-bearing strength and overall stability in your repair.
Mudjacking takes between one and three days to dry completely. During this time, it's important to avoid putting weight on the slab until it's fully cured. The drying time depends on the project size and environmental conditions. In contrast, polyurethane foam used in foam jacking can cure in as little as one hour.
No, mudjacking is not a permanent fix for sinking concrete. While it effectively lifts the slab and can last five to 10 years, it doesn't address underlying soil issues that may cause future sinking. For a more permanent solution, you might consider foam jacking or complete slab replacement, which can address deeper structural problems.
