30 Jul Contact the pros for raising your concrete porch

Dear Glenn: My elderly mother’s porch and driveway have sunk to where I’m afraid it is hazardous to her. She may fall. She is on a very limited income, so I was wondering if it is cheaper to have the porch raised. If so, what reputable contractors are available? Leticia, Dearborn Heights Dear Leticia: I’d get two quotes. SAS Basement Waterproofing (800-894-5115, www.sasbasementwaterproofing.com), does a great deal of this kind of work and is very repair oriented. A-1 Concrete Leveling (800-538-3514, www.elliottleveling.com) is the leading concrete-lifting company in the area.
