Normally the concrete slab is elevated to reach its original height. Concrete leveling is cheaper because it is affordable. You spend less time to repair the damage portion of the concrete slab.
Once you have installed the equipment for operation, the concrete leveling process takes only hours. Lifting can enable you to get your original slab.
