Concrete Walkway Lifted and Leveled in De Pere, WI
Before
A homeowner in De Pere, WI reached out to Sure-Dry after noticing their concrete walkway leading to the front steps had settled unevenly. The slabs had shifted over time, creating noticeable height differences and trip hazards along the path. With frequent foot traffic and Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles, the problem had continued to worsen, making it both a safety concern and an issue impacting the home’s curb appeal. This is a common example of concrete lifting and concrete leveling needs in the area.
The homeowner was looking for a reliable concrete lifting company and contractor to restore the walkway before the damage progressed further or caused injury. They also wanted a solution that would be quick, effective, and long-lasting.
After
Our team used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to lift and level the settled walkway slabs. By drilling small, precise holes and injecting the expanding foam beneath the concrete, we were able to raise the slabs back to their proper position while stabilizing the underlying soil.
Unlike traditional mudjacking (also known as slab jacking), which uses a heavier material that can add stress to already shifting soils, PolyLevel is lightweight, cures quickly, and provides a more durable, long-term solution. This method is ideal for concrete step repair and walkway stabilization, especially in climates like Wisconsin where soil movement is common.
The walkway is now level, stable, and safe for daily use, restoring both function and appearance while giving the homeowner confidence moving forward.
The homeowner can now safely access their front steps without concern, knowing the walkway is properly supported and built to last.
Sinking Concrete Driveway Repaired in De Pere, WI
Before: A homeowner in De Pere, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing sections of their concrete driveway and walkway had become uneven and settled over time. The shifting slabs created tripping hazards near the front entrance and caused water to collect in low areas throughout the driveway during rain and snowmelt. Like many homes throughout Brown County and Northeast 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 concrete without the expense and disruption of replacement.
Traditional mudjacking, also referred to as slab jacking, can place additional weight on already unstable soils and often requires larger drill holes throughout the slab surface. The homeowner wanted a long-lasting concrete floor repair and concrete step repair solution that would improve safety, drainage, and curb appeal around the property.
After: Sure-Dry inspected the driveway and walkway and identified multiple 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 driveway and walkway.
The completed repair restored a safer and more uniform concrete surface while helping protect the slabs against continued settlement common throughout De Pere and Northeast Wisconsin.

Severely Sunken Concrete Walkway Repaired in De Pere, WI
Before The concrete sidewalk leading to the front entrance of this De Pere, WI home had settled and become uneven over time, creating noticeable height differences between slabs. The sinking concrete created tripping hazards near the front of the home and allowed water to collect along portions of the walkway during rain and seasonal snowmelt. Problems like these are common for homeowners searching for concrete leveling, concrete lifting contractor services, and concrete sidewalk repair throughout Brown County due to soil movement and Wisconsin freeze-thaw conditions.
The homeowner wanted to restore the sidewalk without replacing the existing concrete and preferred a long-term solution over traditional mudjacking methods that can add additional weight beneath unstable soils.
After Sure-Dry restored the settled sidewalk using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to carefully lift and stabilize the affected slabs. The lightweight expanding foam was injected beneath the sidewalk to fill voids and raise the concrete back toward its original position with minimal disruption to the surrounding landscaping. Unlike traditional slab jacking or mudjacking methods that rely on heavier grout materials, PolyLevel provides a lightweight concrete lifting solution that cures quickly and offers precise slab stabilization.
To help protect the repaired sidewalk from future movement, the joints and cracks were sealed using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant.

Concrete Driveway Repair in De Pere, WI
Before: A homeowner in De Pere, WI had started noticing sections of the driveway and front walkway were sinking and shifting more every year. The driveway had developed uneven spots and rough transitions, while the walkway leading to the front door had become unlevel enough that it was turning into a tripping hazard. Cracks between the slabs had also continued opening up, allowing water to get underneath the concrete and slowly make the settling worse over time.
Like many homes around Brown County, years of freeze-thaw weather and changing moisture conditions beneath the slabs had caused the supporting soil to settle. The homeowner wanted to fix the uneven concrete and clean up the appearance of the front entrance without having to completely replace the driveway and walkway.
After: Sure-Dry used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to carefully lift and stabilize the settled driveway and front walkway slabs. By injecting the foam beneath the concrete, the crew was able to fill the voids underneath and raise the affected sections back closer to level without tearing out the existing concrete. Compared to traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and works well for correcting uneven driveway and walkway surfaces with minimal disruption.
Once 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 had smoother transitions, the walkway to the front door was much safer to walk across, and the whole front of the home looked cleaner and more level overall.
