Garage Apron Concrete Repair, Lifting & Joint Sealing in Waupaca, WI
Before
A homeowner in Waupaca, WI had a concrete garage apron and the steps leading down to the lower-level entrance that had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces and noticeable gaps between the concrete slabs. The height differences made it more difficult to safely walk between the garage and lower-level entry while also allowing water to seep into the joints. Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles and naturally shifting soils often cause these heavily used concrete areas to settle, leading to trip hazards and continued movement if left unaddressed.
After
Sure-Dry restored the garage apron and lower-level entry steps using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to accurately lift and stabilize the settled concrete. Unlike traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures in about 15 minutes, and provides long-lasting support without placing additional stress on the underlying soils. After the concrete was returned to the proper elevation, all joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water from infiltrating beneath the slabs and contributing to future settlement. The completed project restored safe access to the lower-level entrance while improving the appearance and longevity of the existing concrete.

Concrete Driveway with Severe Sunken Slabs Repaired in Lowell, WI
Before: A homeowner in Lowell, WI had reached the point where the concrete driveway and walkway leading to the front door were falling apart faster every season. Large cracks had formed throughout several slabs, sections of the concrete had sunk badly out of level, and parts of the walkway had become rough enough that family and guests had to watch where they stepped coming up to the house. Water was also settling into the low spots after rain, which only continued washing out the soil underneath and making the problem worse over time.
Around Dodge County, severe freeze-thaw weather and years of moisture working under older concrete can really take a toll on driveways and walkways like this. The homeowner wanted to avoid the cost and mess of replacing everything and started looking into concrete lifting and concrete leveling options instead.
After: Sure-Dry used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to lift and stabilize the settled driveway and front walkway slabs. By injecting the foam beneath the concrete, the crew was able to fill the empty spaces underneath and carefully raise several badly sunken sections back closer to level. Compared to traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and helps avoid putting extra stress on already shifting soils beneath the slabs.
After the lifting work was finished, the crew sealed the large cracks and open joints using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help keep water from getting back underneath the concrete. By the time the project was completed, the driveway and walkway looked dramatically better, the uneven sections were much safer to walk across, and the whole front approach to the home felt cleaned up and more solid again.

Concrete Leveling in Harshaw, WI
The concrete walkway this home in Harshaw, WI was sunken and uneven due to soil erosion underneath the concrete slabs. On top of that, it was riddled with dangerous, unsightly cracks caused by the shifting and sinking of the concrete.

Concrete Lifting & Sealing in Harshaw, WI
Before: Uneven Concrete Was Getting in the Way
In Harshaw, this homeowner was having trouble getting to their front door safely and easily. Over time, their sidewalk, driveway, and front stoop had all started to sink and shift, creating uneven surfaces and gaps between slabs. It didn’t just look rough—it made everyday access harder and more frustrating than it needed to be.
They wanted everything lifted, leveled, and sealed so the entryway was safe, smooth, and easy to use again.
After: Smooth Transitions and Solid Concrete Again
We used PolyLevel® to lift and level all the settled slabs—including the sidewalk, driveway sections, and front stoop. Then we sealed up the joints and cracks with NexusPro®, a flexible, long-lasting sealant that keeps water out and helps prevent future sinking.
Now, everything’s back where it should be—safe, smooth, and ready for daily use. No more uneven steps, no more awkward gaps, and no more worrying about accessibility.

Concrete Lifting & Severe Crack Repair In Berlin, WI
Before:
A homeowner in Berlin had settled driveway and walkway slabs with open joints and cracks. The uneven surfaces created trip hazards and allowed water to seep between slabs, causing pooling near the garage and accelerating freeze–thaw damage.
After:
We injected PolyLevel® beneath the settled slabs to fill voids and gently lift them back to a level, properly pitched position. We then sealed control joints and cracks with NexusPro®, a flexible, UV-resistant sealant (installed over backer where needed) and finished with color-match sand for a clean look.
The concrete is now level, safer to walk and drive on, and better protected against water intrusion and freeze–thaw cycles.
