The Right Way, LLC

The Right Way, LLC lifts and levels concrete using mudjacking, a method with over 100 years of proven success. The company serves residential and commercial customers across Sarasota, Manatee, and Charlotte counties, offering pool deck repair, driveway leveling, and concrete lifting for settling slabs.

Owner-operated since 2006, the business completes estimates and projects quickly—often within 10 days. There are no deposits required, and work comes with a money-back guarantee. Pricing for pool deck repair on normal settlement issues ranges from $1,900 to $3,500 depending on house size. The company has completed over 1,200 pool decks.

In Florida, concrete contractors must be licensed by the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB) under the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR). Before hiring any contractor, verify their license through the DBPR's online search portal at myfloridalicense.com. You can search by the contractor's name, license number, or city. This step protects you from unlicensed work and ensures the contractor meets state competency standards.

Concrete work in Florida is subject to the Florida Building Code. Ask your contractor whether permits are required for your specific project—this varies by project scope and your local jurisdiction. A licensed contractor should handle permitting as part of the job, though it is important to confirm this upfront. Verify that your contractor is insured and ask about their workers' compensation coverage.

When requesting an estimate, ask about the contractor's experience with your type of project (pool decks, driveways, slabs, or leveling work), the method they use, and the timeline for completion. Clarify whether the price includes permitting and grading, what warranty or guarantee backs the work, and whether a deposit is required. Getting multiple estimates helps you compare scope and cost.
