Concrete Repair Before & After Photos

Before
The homeowner in Manitowoc, WI had a concrete walkway running around the house that had begun to settle and tilt toward the foundation, creating uneven surfaces and drainage concerns. Sections of the walkway developed height variations and cracking at the joints due to soil washout and freeze-thaw cycles, leading the homeowner to search for concrete lifting and concrete leveling solutions to prevent worsening settlement.

After
Sure-Dry restored the walkway by completing precise concrete lifting with PolyLevel® to raise and stabilize the settled slabs and improve slope away from the home. After the lift was complete, NexusPro® was applied to seal joints and protect the walkway from moisture intrusion and freeze-thaw damage. The finished repair provided long-term concrete leveling performance suitable for Manitowoc’s climate and restored safe, even footing around the home.

Before: A homeowner in Manitowoc, WI began noticing sections of their driveway and both concrete walkways leading to the front entrance and side service door of the garage had started to sink and separate. Uneven slabs had created trip hazards and allowed water to collect along low areas during heavy rain and seasonal snowmelt, a common problem throughout Eastern Wisconsin where shifting soils and freeze-thaw conditions contribute to slab settlement. Cracks between the concrete joints continued widening over time, affecting both the appearance and safety of the property.
After researching concrete lifting, concrete leveling, and concrete step repair solutions, the homeowner learned that older mudjacking and slab jacking methods can place additional weight beneath already unstable soils and may not provide the long-term stabilization they were looking for.
After: Sure-Dry repaired the settled concrete using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to carefully lift and stabilize the driveway slabs along with both walkways leading to the home and garage service entrance. This advanced concrete lifting system is installed through small injection ports and expands beneath the slab to fill voids and restore proper support. Compared to traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and helps minimize future settlement caused by soil washout beneath the concrete surfaces.
To help protect the repaired joints and cracks from moisture intrusion, the crew also applied NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant throughout the affected seams. This durable sealant helps reduce water infiltration that can contribute to additional slab movement and concrete deterioration over time. The completed concrete leveling project restored safer access to both entryways while improving the overall appearance and functionality of the driveway and walkways.

Before

The homeowner in Manitowoc, WI noticed settlement throughout the driveway, walkway leading to the back porch, and the concrete steps along the side of the driveway that provided access into the home. Uneven slabs, widening joints, and shifting steps had created tripping hazards and made the exterior surfaces less safe and functional. Water was also collecting in several low areas, increasing the risk of additional soil erosion beneath the concrete. Homeowners experiencing these conditions often research concrete lifting options and compare them to mudjacking, a traditional slab jacking method that uses a heavy cement-based slurry to raise settled concrete.

After

Sure-Dry restored the driveway, walkway, and concrete steps using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. The lightweight foam was injected beneath the affected concrete to fill voids, stabilize the underlying soils, and carefully lift each section back toward its intended elevation. Following the concrete leveling process, NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant was applied to seal cracks and joints, helping prevent water intrusion beneath the slabs. Unlike mudjacking, PolyLevel cures quickly, requires smaller injection holes, adds less weight to supporting soils, and provides a durable solution for homeowners seeking professional concrete lifting, concrete leveling, and concrete step repair services in Manitowoc County.

Before: A homeowner in Denmark, WI had a concrete sidewalk wrapping around the house toward the back entrance that had slowly settled and shifted over the years. Several sections of the walkway had become uneven enough that it was uncomfortable — and in some spots unsafe — to walk across, especially during wet or icy conditions. The slabs had also started separating at the joints, allowing water to work underneath the concrete and continue washing out the soil below.
Like a lot of homes around Brown County, years of freeze-thaw weather and changing moisture conditions had gradually caused the sidewalk to sink out of level. The homeowner wanted to get the walkway straightened back out and safer to use without replacing the entire sidewalk around the home.

After: Sure-Dry used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to lift and stabilize the settled sidewalk leading around the house to the back entrance. By injecting the foam beneath the slabs, the crew was able to fill the empty spaces underneath and carefully raise the concrete back closer to level. Compared to traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and allows for more precise lifting adjustments along walkways like this.
Once the sidewalk was leveled, the joints and cracks were sealed using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help keep water from getting back underneath the slabs. By the end of the project, the walkway had a much smoother appearance, safer footing around the home, and cleaner transitions leading to the back entrance.
