Mud-jacking, slab-jacking or concrete raising – whatever you prefer to call it, all these terms refer to the same concrete repair process that fixes uneven and sloped cement slabs. During the concrete raising process, a slurry mixture is hydraulically pumped under a settled slab filling in the hollow areas and ultimately raising it back to its original position. 
If you think your home can’t fall apart at the seams, literally, think again. Visible cracks, gaps and misalignment in your home's foundation means it has settled into the surrounding soil. Any signs of foundation settling should be cause for alarm for any homeowner, but it shouldn’t be a major deal because the issues can be repaired rather easily. 
There are many basement wall straightening methods used today, but unfortunately, many of them fail to permanently remedy the problem, and many of them have major drawbacks that make them poor choices for basement wall repair. With more than 20 years’ experience in concrete repair and basement wall straightening in Spring Valley, IL, we have discovered that one of the best ways to adequately repair bowed basement walls is with the I-Beam Method. This method permanently braces or straightens damaged basement walls to restore your home’s integrity and value. 
There are many reasons water can leak into your home. One of the main causes of water leaks is hydrostatic pressure, or excess moisture around the foundation of your home.

Another cause of increased pressure is having rain gutters draining too close to the foundation..
