Concrete Repair Before & After Photos

Before: A homeowner in Two Rivers, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing the concrete walkway and back patio near the sliding glass door had become uneven and settled over time. The shifting slabs created tripping hazards around the patio and made the step into the sliding glass door uneven and difficult to navigate safely. Like many homes throughout Manitowoc County and Lakeshore Wisconsin, repeated freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil conditions beneath the slabs had caused the concrete to crack and sink. 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 unstable soils and often requires larger drill holes throughout the slab surface. The homeowner wanted a long-lasting concrete step repair solution that would improve safety, drainage, and usability throughout the outdoor living space.

After: Sure-Dry inspected the walkway and back patio and identified several settlement areas beneath the affected concrete slabs, including near the step leading into the sliding glass door. To restore the surfaces, the crew installed PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the settled 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 while providing a more precise lift.
The completed repair restored safer and more stable walking surfaces while improving the transition into the sliding glass door and helping protect the concrete against continued settlement common throughout Two Rivers and Lakeshore Wisconsin.

Facing the challenge of cracks and an uneven walkway in Dunbar, WI, this homeowner turned to us for help. As seen in the before photo, the pathway's wear and tear not only detracted from their home's curb appeal but also posed a safety risk. Enter PolyLevel and NexusPro: our dynamic duo of concrete solutions. The after photo brilliantly showcases the transformation - a smooth, level surface that's built to last.

In Peshtigo, WI, a homeowner was dealing with cracked and uneven concrete that had become both an eyesore and a safety concern. Settling beneath the slabs caused the surface to shift, creating an unlevel area that needed attention.

Our team repaired the concrete using the PolyLevel system to lift and stabilize the slabs by filling the voids underneath. Once the surface was properly leveled, NexusPro® joint sealant was applied to the cracks and joints to help block out water and protect against future movement. With the repairs complete, the concrete is now smooth, stable, and safe to use again.

Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI had a settled sidewalk leading up to the home, creating an uneven walking surface and a noticeable drop near the concrete patio located beneath a roof overhang. The settlement posed a trip hazard and allowed water to collect and drain back toward the foundation. Limited access from the roof overhang made full concrete replacement impractical, while Wisconsin freeze-thaw cycles continued to worsen the uneven slabs.

After
Sure-Dry stabilized and lifted the affected sidewalk slabs using PolyLevel® to restore proper elevation and create a smooth, even walking surface. The precision lifting process corrected the settlement without disturbing the adjacent patio or the roof structure above. Proper alignment improved drainage away from the home and eliminated the trip hazard without the need for removal or replacement.
The homeowner now has a level, safe sidewalk that complements the patio area and performs reliably in all seasons.

Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI noticed cracking developing in the garage floor along with subtle unevenness that suggested the concrete slab was beginning to settle. As the cracks widened, concerns grew about continued movement, vehicle loading stress, and long-term damage to the slab. In northern Wisconsin, freeze-thaw cycles and soil settlement beneath garage slabs commonly contribute to early cracking and loss of support.

After
Sure-Dry stabilized and lifted the garage floor using PolyLevel® to address the underlying soil settlement and restore proper slab support. The high-density polyurethane was injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and reestablish a stable base, helping stop further movement and reduce stress on the slab. This minimally invasive repair corrected the issue without removing or replacing the garage floor.
The homeowner now has a stabilized garage slab designed to resist further cracking and perform reliably through seasonal conditions.
