Concrete Sidewalk Repair & Leveling in Oshkosh, WI
Before:
This homeowner in Oshkosh, WI had a sidewalk that had sunk several inches over time, creating a serious trip hazard leading up to the home. The uneven concrete wasn’t just unsafe — it was also sloping back toward the house, allowing water to collect near the foundation instead of draining away properly.
Like many homes in Wisconsin, years of freeze/thaw cycles, shifting soils, and water washout underneath the slabs had caused the concrete to settle and crack.
After:
Instead of tearing out and replacing the sidewalk, our team repaired and restored it using PolyLevel® concrete lifting foam and NexusPro® joint sealant.
We carefully lifted and leveled the sunken sidewalk using PolyLevel, an expanding polyurethane foam designed to fill voids beneath the concrete and stabilize the supporting soil. Once the slabs were properly positioned again, we sealed all joints and cracks with NexusPro to help prevent water from getting underneath and causing future settlement.
This concrete leveling and repair solution provided the homeowner with:
- A safer, level sidewalk with trip hazards eliminated
- Proper drainage away from the foundation
- Long-term protection against water intrusion and soil washout
- A faster and more affordable alternative to concrete replacement
Now the sidewalk is:
✔️ Level
✔️ Safe to walk on
✔️ Draining water away from the home properly
For homeowners in Oshkosh dealing with sinking sidewalks, uneven concrete, cracked driveways, or trip hazards, concrete lifting with PolyLevel offers a long-lasting repair solution without the cost and disruption of tearing out and replacing concrete.

Before & After: Concrete Driveway & Sidewalk Repair in Oshkosh, WI
Before:
This homeowner in Oshkosh, WI was dealing with a driveway and sidewalk that had developed multiple large cracks and uneven sections over time. The settled concrete created trip hazards, poor drainage, and open joints where water was getting underneath the slabs and washing out the supporting soil.
Like many concrete surfaces in Wisconsin, years of freeze/thaw cycles and moisture movement had caused the slabs to sink and separate.
After:
Instead of tearing everything out and replacing the concrete, we repaired and restored it using:
- PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift and level the sunken slabs by filling voids beneath the concrete and stabilizing the soil
- NexusPro® Joint & Crack Sealant to seal cracks and joints and help prevent future water intrusion and washout
This approach provided the homeowner with a faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective solution compared to full concrete replacement.
Now the concrete is:
✔️ Level
✔️ Safer to walk on and drive on
✔️ Better protected against future settlement and water damage
The homeowner was able to restore the appearance and function of the driveway and sidewalk without the mess, downtime, and expense of pouring brand-new concrete.

Broken Concrete Driveway Repaired in Oshkosh, WI
Before: A homeowner in Oshkosh, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing sections of their driveway and garage floor had become uneven and cracked over time. The settled concrete created tripping hazards, allowed water to collect near the garage entrance, and made snow removal more difficult during Wisconsin winters. Like many properties throughout Winnebago County and the Fox Valley region, repeated freeze-thaw cycles and shifting soils beneath the slabs had caused the concrete to sink and separate. 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 solution that would improve safety, appearance, and drainage around the home.
After: Sure-Dry inspected the driveway and garage floor and identified multiple settlement areas beneath the concrete slabs. To restore the surfaces, the crew installed PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the affected 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 garage floor.
The completed repair restored a smoother, safer driving and walking surface while helping protect the concrete against continued settlement common throughout Oshkosh and Central Wisconsin.
