In addition, mudjacking requires several experienced employees, heavy materials and equipment to complete a project. Polyjacking can be completed by a single experienced employee, with the polyurethane equipment confined in a single work van.
PolyMagic has the ability to transport all of the required equipment in a confined transit van. The two tanks needed to complete the polyjacking process are only 35″ tall x 24″ wide! This is an entirely different process than mudjacking which is much more invasive and messy!
The polyjacking process has a huge difference in the overall equipment, materials and man power needed to perform a job. Less mess, more efficient results and accuracy.
