Facility Managers: Maximize Your 2010 Budget
Since we have entered the final quarter of the year, there are many industrial and commercial properties contacting us as they review their annual budgets. You know the old adage: use it or lose it! If you are like others, the weather may have impacted your ability to make improvements or maintain every aspect of your property. Since concrete leveling is not subject to some of the same weather restrictions, we are helping facilities maximize their end-of-year spend using our value-oriented concrete lifting solution. If your facility has budget spend remaining and sunken concrete, let A-1 Concrete Leveling help you increase your overall performance rating on budget usage!

Limestone

Click the link above to read an interesting article which discusses the long-term durability of naturally-occurring limestone making limestone a proven building material that can last for centuries.
Of course this is part of why we use a limestone-based slurry in our hydraulic pressure injection application for concrete leveling. Our grout material effectively re-establishes the sub-base and creates a natural, stable sub-support for the slab.
It is unusual that the author did not mention that the Egyptian pyramids are made of limestone since they have been around for thousands of years!!!
This article was written by nationally syndicated newspaper columnist, Tim Collins, and published on the Ask The Builder website.
Enjoy!

Coal Fly Ash EPA Ruling Controversy
The EPA continues to delay their decision on whether coal fly ash should be classified as a hazardous material. We use an agricultural limestone (ag-lime) mixture for leveling which does not include any coal fly ash. There are varied opinions on the fly ash topic and if you search the web, you will get differing perspectives relative to the dangers presented by coal fly ash. The 60 Minutes segment below addressed the 100 billion gallon coal fly ash disaster in Kingston, TN, in 2008 which is one major contributing factor in coal fly ash being reviewed by and possibly reclassified as hazardous by the EPA. The EPA's decision remains open to public contribution and discussion and is due to be formally decided later this year. More information can be viewed http://www.epa.gov/.
