Before & After Photos

Before:
A homeowner in Brussels noticed their concrete driveway apron and front patio had begun to settle and separate from the foundation, creating uneven surfaces and gaps that collected water. The sinking concrete not only affected curb appeal but also caused tripping hazards and drainage issues near the home.

After:
Sure-Dry lifted and leveled the settled concrete using PolyLevel® to restore the driveway apron and patio to their original position. Once stabilized, NexusPro® sealant was applied to all joints and cracks to protect against water infiltration and future soil erosion.

The result was a smooth, even surface that improved both safety and appearance around the home.

Before: Sinking Concrete Threatens Critical HVAC Equipment

At NWTC's Niagara campus, a small but essential concrete pad supporting a commercial AC compressor unit had begun to settle and tilt unevenly. Over time, shifting soils beneath the slab caused it to sink by several inches—putting strain on the compressor lines and creating long-term risk for the system’s performance and longevity.

The college’s facilities team wanted a solution that was fast, clean, and wouldn’t require moving or disconnecting the equipment.

After: Leveled, Stabilized, and Protected with PolyLevel®

Sure-Dry installed the PolyLevel polyurethane foam lifting system, which allowed our team to:

• Lift and re-level the sunken concrete pad with precise control

• Minimize vibration and disturbance to the attached AC unit

• Avoid costly removal or shutdown of the HVAC system

• Achieve long-term slab stabilization with minimal downtime

The work was completed in just a few hours, and the pad is now perfectly level and structurally sound, protecting both the concrete and the heavy equipment it supports.

To seal up a large crack in this homeowners garage floor in Marinette, WI, our team at Sure-Dry applied our NexusPro Crack Repair. This seals up even the biggest cracks and holds them together from splitting any further. Also, it levels out the crack in the concrete to eliminate any tripping hazards that may come about it.  

In Marinette, WI, a homeowner faced difficulty with a high front step that made entering the home a challenge. As shown in the before photo, the step's height was not only an inconvenience but also a potential hazard. After reaching out to us, we swiftly addressed the issue using our PolyLevel and NexusPro products, visible in the after photo. Our solutions not only improved accessibility but also enhanced the safety and appeal of the home's entrance, providing a reliable and long-lasting fix that meets our mission of offering a remarkable customer experience.

Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI had a settling garage apron that created an uneven transition between the driveway and garage floor, raising concerns about trip hazards, water drainage, and long-term concrete damage. Although the site visit occurred during winter with light snow cover, elevation checks using a level and precise measurements clearly confirmed slab settlement and downward slope toward the garage—common in northern Wisconsin due to freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement.

After
Sure-Dry completed the repair in spring by lifting and stabilizing the garage apron using PolyLevel® to restore proper elevation and alignment. Once the slab was brought back to grade, joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro® to help prevent surface water from penetrating beneath the concrete. The repair corrected the sinking apron without replacement and reestablished proper drainage away from the garage.
The homeowner now has a level, secure garage apron designed to perform reliably through seasonal weather changes.
