Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Shawano, WI was frustrated with the condition of their concrete driveway, adjoining sidewalk, and front steps. Years of settlement had left multiple slabs uneven, while several deep cracks throughout the concrete created safety concerns and detracted from the home's appearance. The sunken slabs also allowed water to collect, increasing the likelihood of continued soil erosion beneath the concrete. During our inspection, our concrete leveling specialist confirmed the slabs were structurally sound despite the extensive cracking and settlement. Like many Wisconsin homes, freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil moisture had caused the supporting soils to shift over time. Instead of replacing the concrete, we recommended lifting, stabilizing, and sealing the existing slabs.

After

Our production team restored the driveway, adjoining sidewalk, and front steps using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to precisely lift the settled slabs back toward their original position. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), PolyLevel is lightweight, waterproof, cures in minutes, and won't place unnecessary weight on the supporting soils, making it an ideal long-term concrete lifting solution. After leveling was complete, our crew sealed the deep cracks and concrete joints with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water intrusion beneath the slabs and reduce the risk of future erosion and settlement. The homeowner now has a safer, more attractive entrance with restored concrete that is built to perform through Wisconsin's changing seasons.

This Shawano, WI homeowner had sections of their concrete driveway that had settled over time, creating uneven slabs that made it difficult to drive on and increased the risk of trips and falls. Like many driveways in northeastern Wisconsin, seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement beneath the slab had caused voids to form, allowing the concrete to sink. Rather than replacing the driveway, the homeowner chose a faster, more cost-effective repair using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam and NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant. Unlike traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel uses lightweight expanding polyurethane foam that won't add additional weight to the soil, cures quickly, and provides precise lifting for long-lasting results.

After

Our crew carefully evaluated the driveway, identified the settled areas, and injected PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the slabs to accurately lift and stabilize the concrete. Once the driveway was restored to a safe, even elevation, we sealed the joints and cracks with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water from infiltrating beneath the slabs and contributing to future settlement. The homeowner now has a smooth, safer driveway with improved curb appeal and a repair designed to stand up to Wisconsin's harsh freeze-thaw conditions.

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.
