Cracked Concrete Driveway Repaired with PolyLevel Foam in Port Washington, WI
The homeowner in Port Washington, WI noticed sections of their concrete driveway and the concrete entry outside their screened porch near the garage had settled over time, creating uneven walking surfaces and making it more difficult to move between the driveway and the home safely. Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement had caused voids beneath the slabs, allowing them to sink. Rather than replacing otherwise solid concrete, they contacted Sure-Dry, a trusted concrete lifting company, for a long-lasting repair solution.
After
Our crew carefully evaluated slab elevations and underlying voids before strategically injecting PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the settled concrete. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), which uses a heavy cement slurry that can contribute to additional settling, PolyLevel utilizes lightweight, high-density expanding foam to precisely lift and stabilize concrete while filling hidden voids below the slab. Once the concrete was restored to the proper height, all joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water infiltration that can accelerate future soil erosion. The homeowner now enjoys a safer, smoother entrance to their screened porch and garage while extending the life of their existing concrete.

Wet Damp Crawlspace Gets Encapsulation & Water Control Repair in Port Washington, WI
Before
The homeowner in Port Washington, WI had a damp, unprotected crawl space that was allowing excess ground moisture and humid air to collect beneath the home. The moisture had created musty odors, elevated humidity levels, and conditions that could eventually impact indoor air quality and the structural components above. With southeastern Wisconsin's changing groundwater levels and seasonal humidity, the homeowner wanted a permanent crawl space repair solution rather than a temporary fix.
After
Our team performed a complete crawl space encapsulation by installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System across the crawl space floor and foundation walls to isolate the home from ground moisture. To further improve energy efficiency and air sealing, we installed RimTight insulation around the rim joists, helping reduce outside air infiltration and moisture intrusion. Because groundwater intrusion was also a concern, we installed a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System to automatically collect and discharge water before it could accumulate beneath the home. The homeowner now has a cleaner, drier crawl space with improved moisture control and greater protection for the home above.

Sunken Cement Driveway Slabs Repaired in Port Washington, WI
Before
The homeowner in Port Washington, WI had sections of their concrete driveway that had settled over time, creating uneven slabs and noticeable trip hazards. Water was beginning to collect in the low areas, accelerating erosion beneath the concrete and increasing the risk of additional settlement. Like many homes in southeastern Wisconsin, freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil moisture had contributed to the slab movement. Rather than replacing the driveway, the homeowner contacted Sure-Dry, a trusted concrete lifting company, for a long-lasting repair.
After
After carefully measuring slab elevations and identifying voids beneath the concrete, our crew injected PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam through small, strategically placed holes to precisely lift and stabilize the driveway. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), which uses a heavy cement slurry that can add weight to already unstable soils, PolyLevel is lightweight, expands to fill hidden voids, cures in minutes, and provides long-lasting support without significant disruption. Once the driveway was restored to a safe, even surface, all joints and cracks were sealed using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water infiltration that can wash away supporting soils beneath the slabs. The homeowner now has a smoother, safer driveway with improved curb appeal and protection against future settlement.

Cement Patio Repaired, Leveled & Sealed in Port Washington, WI
Before
The homeowner in Port Washington, WI noticed their concrete patio outside the back door and sections of the garage floor had settled, creating uneven surfaces and making it more difficult to safely enter and exit the home. Water was beginning to collect in the low areas, and the shifting concrete had become more noticeable after years of Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil conditions. Rather than replacing solid concrete, the homeowner chose Sure-Dry, a trusted concrete lifting company, to restore the slabs.
After
Our crew carefully inspected the affected concrete and identified the voids responsible for the settlement before injecting PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the patio and garage floor. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), which relies on a heavy cement slurry, PolyLevel uses lightweight, expanding foam that fills hidden voids, precisely lifts the slabs, cures in minutes, and provides long-lasting support without adding unnecessary weight to the soil. Once the concrete was restored to the proper elevation, all joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water from reaching the soil beneath the slabs. The homeowner now has a safer, more level patio and garage floor that are protected against future moisture-related settlement.

Cracked, Failing Foundation Repaired & Stabilized in Port Washington, Wi
Before
The homeowner in Port Washington, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing severe horizontal cracking and significant inward movement along one of their basement foundation walls. The wall had continued to shift over time, raising concerns about the structural stability of the home and allowing moisture to enter through the growing cracks. Following a detailed inspection, our team documented the wall deflection and determined that the movement was consistent with hydrostatic soil pressure, a common issue in southeastern Wisconsin where expansive soils and repeated freeze-thaw cycles place tremendous stress on foundation walls. The homeowner wanted a permanent foundation repair solution before the damage became more extensive.
After
To permanently stabilize the failing wall, our crew installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor System along with steel wall channels to distribute structural loads evenly across the damaged foundation. The wall was carefully measured and the anchors were installed in stable soil outside the home before being connected to the interior steel channels. The system immediately stopped further inward movement and provides the ability for gradual wall straightening over time through future tightening adjustments. The homeowner now has a permanently stabilized foundation wall and renewed confidence that their home is protected against continued structural movement.
