Sunken Walkway and Garage Apron Repaired in Rhinelander, WI
Before
A homeowner in Rhinelander, WI had settling and uneven concrete affecting the garage apron and a large sidewalk system alongside the home. The walkway splits, with one section providing access toward the front of the property while another continues around to the back of the home. Settlement had created uneven transitions and areas where water could work its way into the joints and beneath the slabs.
Northern Wisconsin’s changing soil moisture, frost and repeated freeze-thaw cycles can contribute to soil movement and voids beneath exterior concrete, eventually leaving slabs without consistent support.
After
Sure-Dry used PolyLevel® to lift and stabilize the affected garage apron and sidewalk slabs. Small injection holes were drilled through the concrete, allowing lightweight polyurethane foam to be injected beneath the slabs. As the foam expanded, it filled underlying voids and provided controlled lifting to improve uneven areas and transitions.
Unlike traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel uses a lightweight material that adds significantly less weight to the soils beneath the concrete, requires smaller injection holes and cures quickly.
After the lifting was completed, NexusPro® Joint Sealant was used on the appropriate cracks and joints. Sealing these areas helps limit water intrusion beneath the slabs, where erosion and Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw conditions can contribute to future settlement.
With the garage apron and branching sidewalk lifted, stabilized and sealed, the homeowner now has safer, more even concrete providing access around the home.

Concrete Repair in Summit Lake, WI
Before The concrete pad outside this pole barn-style home in Summit Lake, WI had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces near both the garage door and entrance door. The sunken concrete presented a tripping hazard and made it more difficult to move equipment and vehicles in and out of the building. As is common in northern Wisconsin, seasonal moisture changes and soil movement beneath the slab contributed to the settlement, leading the homeowner to search for concrete lifting and concrete leveling solutions instead of a full slab replacement.
After Sure-Dry restored the concrete pad using the PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to carefully lift and level the settled sections. The joints and cracks were then sealed with NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent water intrusion and further soil erosion beneath the slab. Unlike traditional mudjacking, sometimes referred to as slab jacking, PolyLevel uses lightweight, high-density foam that cures quickly, adds minimal weight to the underlying soil, and provides long-lasting support. The completed repair improved safety, restored proper access to the garage and entrance door, and enhanced the appearance of the property.
