Concrete Slab Settlement Repair
Good evening everyone!
I am looking at a property with some slab settlement in the basement. The foundation is on piers and not tied to the slab. There are no signs of any structural issues with the foundation, just the slab on one side of the basement. Any of you have any thoughts on the best means of repairing this? I am between mud jacking the floor back level or pulling up the carpet and installing some self leveling concrete. I'm leaning towards mud jacking to ensure that any voids below the slab are filled and stabilized, but wanted to get some advice on the cost effectiveness and experience of each option. Thanks everyone and hope your is off to a great start!
