Concrete Walkway Repair in Clintonville, WI
Before: A homeowner in Clintonville, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing the concrete walkways leading to the front door and side garage entrance had become uneven and settled over time. The shifting slabs created tripping hazards near both entryways and allowed water to collect along portions of the walkways during rain and snowmelt. Like many homes throughout Waupaca County and Central Wisconsin, repeated freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil conditions beneath the slabs had caused the concrete to crack and sink. The homeowner was searching for a concrete lifting company and concrete leveling contractor that could restore the existing walkways without the expense and disruption of replacement.
Traditional mudjacking, also referred to as slab jacking, can place additional weight on unstable soils and often requires larger drill holes throughout the slab surface. The homeowner wanted a long-lasting concrete step repair solution that would improve safety, drainage, and curb appeal around the home.
After: Sure-Dry inspected the walkways leading to the front door and side garage entrance and identified several settlement areas beneath the affected concrete slabs. To restore the surfaces, the crew installed PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the settled sections to carefully lift and level the concrete back into position. Unlike traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and helps reduce additional stress on weakened soils beneath the slab. Once the lifting process was completed, the joints and cracks were sealed using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent future water intrusion and soil washout beneath the walkways.
The completed repair restored safer and more stable walking surfaces while helping protect the concrete against continued settlement common throughout Clintonville and Central Wisconsin.

Concrete Driveway and Patio Repaired in Clintonville, WI
Before: A homeowner in Clintonville, WI had started dealing with cracking and settling around both the driveway and the back patio areas leading to the entrances of the home and garage. Several slabs had shifted over time, leaving uneven spots that made walking through the patio and entrance areas awkward and unsafe. Cracks throughout the concrete had also started opening up more each season, and water was collecting in the lower sections after rain and snowmelt.
Like many homes around Waupaca County, years of freeze-thaw weather and moisture working underneath the slabs had slowly caused the soil beneath the concrete to settle and wash out. The homeowner wanted to clean up the appearance of the property and fix the uneven concrete without going through the cost and mess of a full replacement.
After: Sure-Dry used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to lift and stabilize the settled driveway and back patio slabs around the entrances to the home and garage. By injecting the foam beneath the concrete, the crew was able to fill the empty spaces underneath and carefully raise the affected slabs back closer to level. Compared to traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and helps avoid putting additional stress on already shifting soils beneath the concrete.
After the lifting work was completed, the cracks and joints were sealed using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help keep water from getting back underneath the slabs. By the end of the project, the driveway and patio areas looked much cleaner, the entrances into the home and garage were safer to walk across, and the concrete had a far smoother and more level appearance overall.
