Concrete Repair Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Neenah, WI had noticed their front sidewalk and concrete steps leading to the front entrance had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces and increasing the risk of trips and falls. Gaps had developed between the sidewalk panels and steps, while water was beginning to collect in the low areas. Like many properties in northeastern Wisconsin, repeated freeze-thaw cycles and shifting soils had allowed voids to form beneath the concrete. Wanting to avoid the cost of replacement, the homeowner contacted Sure-Dry, a trusted concrete leveling contractor, for a permanent repair solution.

After

Our crew carefully evaluated the amount of settlement before injecting PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the front sidewalk and concrete steps. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), which uses a heavy cement slurry that can contribute to future settlement, PolyLevel is lightweight, expands to fill hidden voids, cures in minutes, and provides long-lasting stabilization with minimal disruption. Once the sidewalk and steps were restored to their proper elevation, we sealed the joints and cracks with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water infiltration beneath the slabs and reduce the potential for future soil erosion. The homeowner now enjoys a safer, smoother entrance with improved curb appeal and durable protection for their existing concrete.

In Conover, WI, a homeowner noticed their concrete slabs showing early signs of cracking. This can lead to water infiltration and further structural issues. Our team at Sure-Dry addressed this by performing a precise PolyLevel injection, stabilizing, lifting, and leveling the concrete. We then applied NexusPro Joint Sealant to protect against future water damage and ensuring flexibility without cracks creeping back. For lasting defense, we treated the slabs with SealantPro, extending their lifespan. The result, evident in the photo, is a refreshed, resilient surface providing lasting peace of mind.

Before

The homeowner in Shawano, WI had a settled concrete garage apron, an uneven walkway leading to the front steps, and sunken front steps that created trip hazards and poor alignment at entry points. Settlement had caused gaps, uneven transitions, and improper slope toward the home, increasing safety concerns and water drainage issues near the foundation.
Inspection confirmed soil settlement beneath the concrete, a common issue in northeastern Wisconsin due to moisture fluctuation and freeze-thaw cycles.

After
Sure-Dry lifted and stabilized the concrete garage apron, walkway to the front steps, and the front steps using PolyLevel® Injection Foam to restore proper height, alignment, and slope. High-density polyurethane foam was injected beneath the slabs to fill voids and provide precise, controlled lifting without the need for concrete replacement.
All concrete surfaces are now level, safe, and properly aligned, restoring smooth access to the garage and front entrance.

Before
The homeowner in Shawano, WI had a concrete driveway and walkway leading to the front door that had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces, trip hazards, and visible joint separation. The settled slabs caused improper drainage toward the home, increasing the risk of water-related damage and further concrete deterioration.
Inspection confirmed soil settlement beneath the concrete, a common issue in northeastern Wisconsin due to moisture movement and freeze-thaw cycles.

After
Sure-Dry lifted and stabilized the driveway and walkway using PolyLevel® Injection Foam to restore proper elevation and slope away from the foundation. After the slabs were raised and supported, cracks and joints were sealed with NexusPro® Joint Sealant to prevent water infiltration and protect the concrete from future damage.
The driveway and walkway are now level, safe, and properly sealed, restoring smooth access to the front entrance and improving long-term durability.

Before

The homeowner in Shawano, WI noticed sections of their concrete driveway and the side walkway had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces that made walking less safe and impacted the overall appearance of the home. The sunken slabs also allowed water to collect in low areas, increasing the potential for additional soil erosion beneath the concrete. During our inspection, our concrete leveling specialist confirmed the concrete remained structurally sound, but voids had developed beneath the slabs due to soil settlement. This is a common issue throughout Wisconsin where freeze-thaw cycles and changing moisture conditions cause supporting soils to shift. Rather than replacing the concrete, we recommended lifting and permanently stabilizing the existing slabs.

After

Our crew restored the driveway and side walkway using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to precisely raise the settled concrete back toward its original position. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), PolyLevel is lightweight, waterproof, and cures in minutes, allowing the concrete to be used again quickly while providing long-term stabilization beneath the slabs. Once the concrete was properly aligned, we sealed the joints and cracks with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water from infiltrating beneath the slabs, reducing the risk of future erosion and settlement. The homeowner now has safer walking surfaces, improved drainage, and enhanced curb appeal without the cost and disruption of replacing the existing concrete.
