HMI Concrete raising vs The Driveway Company Franchise Comparison

HMI began as RaiseRite Concrete Lifting, Inc. in 1974. At that time, the only slab raising pumps on the market were mechanical pumps designed in the 1950’s, and needless to say, innovation wasn’t a descriptive word for our industry.

Innovation and meeting customers’ expectations has driven us to become a world

leading manufacturer of concrete raising equipment and materials.

Through our history, we have led the concrete raising industry by developing and introducing self-propulsion, radio remote control, increased pumping speeds, and other improvements to our equipment to meet the concrete raising industry’s needs.

Ben Callahan, founder of The Driveway Company has been involved in driveway repair and maintenance for over 30 years. Throughout those years he has developed techniques for extending the life of driveways using concrete sealants that stop the penetration of harmful corrosives along with barriers that prevent water saturation. When water penetrates the concrete and the freeze/thaw cycle occurs, the result will be flaking and decay of the concrete drive.
