A-1 Appreciates Exceptional Customer Compliment!

A-1 Concrete Leveling routinely receives compliments from our customers. They call and tell us about their positive experiences. They tell our crews when their project has been completed. They visit us at the home show years after we completed their projects to tell us that it still looks great. In the busy world we live in it is rare that we receive a letter. This letter, sent to us last November in reference to work completed during the Summer, was received with much appreciation from Mr. Robert R. Radel. As we finally and thankfully begin our season, we are grateful for Mr. Radel's time and his expression of satisfaction with the work we completed at his home. This letter is published in full entirety with Mr. Radel's express permission. Thank you, Mr. Radel!

A-1 Concrete Leveling is at the Buffalo Home & Garden Show!

Come visit A-1 Concrete Leveling in booth number 752 at the 2018 Buffalo Home & Garden Show! Conveniently located at the Buffalo Convention Center, click here for more details.

A-1 Concrete Leveling New York State Travel Plaza Projects

A-1 Concrete Leveling was proud to be able to assist the New York State Thruway Authority in completing projects at all of the travel plazas along the I-90 from Rochester to Pennsylvania State. These projects saved government dollars, was more convenient to plaza visitors than a replacement project, was immediately usable after project completion, and increased visitor safety. A-1 appreciates NYS for recognizing the value concrete leveling provides as a solution to resolving sunken concrete issues. Check out our video which was just posted to YouTube!

Experience the A-1 Advantage!!!

A-1 Concrete Leveling is America's Premier Concrete Leveling Company!

The most modern concrete leveling techniques!

• The 1" diameter holes drilled through the slab by A-1 are the smallest in the industry
• Smaller hole size avoids weakening the slabs or raising the slabs too quickly
• A-1 fills the void completely and raises the slab safely

The most environmentally responsible concrete leveling material.

• Limestone-based slurry used to raise sunken concrete is natures' original green material and has stood the test of time
• Limestone is used by farmers to fertilize crops
• Limestone was used over 3000 years ago to build the pyramids!
• Limestone is natural and won't disturb the landscape, in fact, it may help...everyone has received a mailer offering "organic lime treatment" for the lawn

A-1's patented Concrete Leveling System has been perfected over the last 30 years!!!

2010 Buffalo Home & Garden Show Testimonials

At the 2010 Buffalo Home & Garden Show, we had a few customers who were kind enough to let us video their testimonials. We raised Lorraine's patio in 2009, Gary's entry in 2007, Elaine's garage in 2007 and Nelson's driveway in 2007. Click on the post title to view the video on YouTube. Hope you enjoy watching!

A Slight Variation on Catch & Release...

Yesterday Pete was at an estimate for MJ Peterson in the City of Buffalo and some tenants approached the property manager he was with to ask for assistance helping an animal who had gotten his head stuck in a plastic jar. Looking at the video below, I am not sure what this animal is (it kind of looks like a groundhog?), but I am sure he was just looking for some food and maybe there was a bit left at the bottom of the empty jar, and, voila, stuck! The tenants said that the animal had been running in the street and they were concerned that he would get hit by a car. The property manager got his employee to use a tool to hold the animal while they pulled the container off his head to set him free. A-1 Concrete Leveling is not just helping raise Buffalo to higher ground, we are also, in conjunction with our friends at MJ Peterson, helping save animals from food-search related injuries.

University of Buffalo: A-1 Goes Back to School to Teach Sunken Concrete a Lesson!

This video was recorded while completing a concrete leveling project at Hadley Village Apartments at the University of Buffalo on March 29th, 2010. We raised a string of centrally located walkway slabs in an effort to eliminate surface water pooling. This saved UB budget dollars, saved their maintenance crew clean-up time from mud tracked into the apartment common areas, saved students the inconvenience of having to maneuver through an area being under construction for a lengthy time and resulted in the desired solution of redirecting the surface drainage of the slabs and eliminating pooling water. Our thanks to the UB staff and students for their support!

"Oops!" says The Nicole of Buffalo! Our foreman, Josh, pointed out an error I made in one of the slides included in this video. Because it would be complicated to replace the slide in the video, I am letting the world in on my mistake (wish I could say that I never make mistakes, but I think everyone knows that's not true...)! So, on the second to last slide in this video, which is titled "The Concrete is Raised & Class is Out!", I mistakenly put in our first year of business as 1997 instead of 2007; why I am stuck in the last century and over a decade behind I do not know, but I made this exact mistake on a piece of literature for the home show in March and had to cut out stickers printed with 2007 to cover up my mistake on 1000 postcards... You'd think I would have learned my lesson (maybe I need to go back to school?). So, while it may sound less impressive that we have only been raising concrete slabs since 2007, rather than 1997, it is infinitely more impressive that we have raised over 4200 slabs since 2007 rather than what would be a much lesser accomplishment if we had only raised that many since 1997! My apology for my error! Thanks to Josh for catching it and pointing it out!

Buffalo Home & Garden Show is Coming!!!

Maybe I am a bit optimistic, but spring is in the air, right? Well, if not right now, the upcoming Buffalo Home & Garden Show signifies the beginning of our residential home improvement season!
