<br />
<b>Common Reasons to Provide Slab Raising Services:<br />
</b><br />
• Turnkey business – as a stand-alone or supplement;<br />
• Eliminate trip hazards (Premises Liability);<br />
• Void-fill dangerous areas;<br />
• Environmentally safe;<br />
• Convenience – Immediate access; <br />
• No re-landscaping or landscape damage; <br />
• Control water flow; <br />
• 1/3 to ½ the cost of removal and replacement; and, <br />

<br />
<br />
The standard service of concrete raising and leveling is primarily used to meet the standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines and/or municipal codes that require property owners meet specific compliance standards for concrete areas. Non-compliant areas are deemed trip-and-fall or potential slip-and-fall (poorly sloped areas where water ponds) liabilities.<br />
<br />
The processes of concrete raising and/or cement grouting are unique, niche services offered through Concrete Raising of America to those entrepreneurs looking for a stand-alone business in the concrete repair industry, or contractors interested in expanding or diversifying their existing business.<br />
<br />
Demand for concrete raising and stabilization services has risen due to a variety of environmental factors and economic concerns. The CRC Concrete Raising Franchise model is designed to <b>Provide a Needed Service </b>within a <b>Variety of Target Market Segments</b>.<br />

<br />
So what is it about the truck - the size, the "sizzle"? We feel it is a combination of each, but it is primarily the ability of the Volumetric Mobile Mixer to produce a consistent, calibrated, cement grout. Translation: CRC Concrete Raising locations can guarantee what is being pumped, and can calibrate units to ensure grout viscosity (complete void fill).<br />
<br />
The difference between having a metered/calibrated grout and a hand-mixed material sets CRC apart from the competition - <strong>When was the last time a municipality accepted a hand-mixed substitute on a concrete walk or pavement contract? </strong>Why?<br />
<br />
The next item often discussed in the sequence of equipment and material discussion: The 3.5-bag Mix. After having been in the raising and grouting industry for over six decades (stemming over 64 years), CRC research and development has determined that 329 lbs of Portland Cement is the optimal amount for one cubic yard of material within a viscosity range known to CRC locations (provided during the 2-4 week training program provided to new CRC Concrete Raising locations).<br />
<br />
In mixing by hand, our competition is reliant upon the individual mixing the slurry/grout in terms of mix design, workability (environmental and other variable factors), proportioning, and individual site conditions.<br />
<br />
CRC's modified equipment allows CRC operators the opportunity to simply "dial in" the viscosity required to complete the job in an efficient and consistent fashion, based upon each unique jobsite and the subgrade(s) encountered.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Additionally, CRC-modified Volumetric Mobile Mixers are self-contained, with calibrated mixing and delivery capability, carrying all water, cement, and aggregate needed for the jobsite. CRC mixers meet/exceed the Standards of Calibration as set forth by the Volumetric Mixer Manufacturer Bureau (VMMB), a member of the National Ready Mix Concrete Association (NRMCA), and conform to ASTM 685, ACI304.6 and CSA 23.7.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Why "settle" for anything less?
