Before
The homeowner in Shawano, WI had a concrete driveway and walkway leading to the front door that had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces, trip hazards, and visible joint separation. The settled slabs caused improper drainage toward the home, increasing the risk of water-related damage and further concrete deterioration.
Inspection confirmed soil settlement beneath the concrete, a common issue in northeastern Wisconsin due to moisture movement and freeze-thaw cycles.
After
Sure-Dry lifted and stabilized the driveway and walkway using PolyLevel® Injection Foam to restore proper elevation and slope away from the foundation. After the slabs were raised and supported, cracks and joints were sealed with NexusPro® Joint Sealant to prevent water infiltration and protect the concrete from future damage.
The driveway and walkway are now level, safe, and properly sealed, restoring smooth access to the front entrance and improving long-term durability.
Before
The homeowner in Shawano, WI had a concrete sidewalk running along the shoreline near their boat dock that had settled and shifted over time due to saturated soils and shoreline erosion. Uneven slabs, joint separation, and trip hazards had developed, making the walkway unsafe and allowing water to collect and wash out material beneath the concrete.
Inspection confirmed voids beneath the sidewalk caused by constant moisture exposure and soil movement common in shoreline environments.
After
Sure-Dry lifted and stabilized the shoreline sidewalk using PolyLevel® Injection Foam to restore proper elevation and alignment without disturbing the surrounding shoreline. Once the slabs were leveled and supported, joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro® Joint Sealant to block water infiltration and help protect the concrete from future erosion-related damage.
The sidewalk is now level, safe, and properly sealed, restoring secure access along the shoreline and to the boat dock.
The stability of any concrete surface is dependent on the soils beneath it. The weight of concrete and what it supports, combined with natural soil erosion, can lead to sunken and uneven concrete surfaces, like the driveway of this home in Pickerel, WI. The sunken concrete caused a dangerous gap between the driveway and the garage floor.
Sure-Dry Basement Systems was able to lift the concrete of this home's driveway and level it with the garage floor using their PolyLevel® Injection Foam system. PolyLevel® is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface.

Before
The homeowner in West Bend, WI noticed their concrete patio outside the sliding door entrance had settled over time, creating an uneven transition between the home and the patio surface. The settlement had caused portions of the concrete to sink, creating tripping hazards and allowing water to collect near the patio after rainfall. Conditions like these are common signs of soil settlement beneath exterior concrete slabs. Many homeowners researching concrete lifting solutions compare them to mudjacking, a traditional slab jacking method that uses a heavy grout mixture to raise settled concrete.
After
Sure-Dry restored the patio using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. The lightweight foam was injected beneath the settled slab to fill voids, stabilize the supporting soils, and carefully lift the concrete back toward its intended elevation. After the concrete leveling process was completed, NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant was applied to seal cracks and joints, helping prevent water from infiltrating beneath the patio. Unlike mudjacking, PolyLevel cures quickly, requires smaller injection holes, adds less weight to the underlying soils, and provides a durable solution for homeowners seeking professional concrete lifting, concrete leveling, and patio repair services in Washington County.
