Sinking Concrete Stoop & Steps Lifted and Stabilized in Florence WI
Sunken Concrete Sidewalk Lifted in Two Rivers, WI
Before:
A homeowner in Two Rivers, WI had a sidewalk that had begun to sink and separate due to soil washout beneath the concrete. Seasonal rains, groundwater movement, and the lake-influenced climate caused voids to develop under several slabs, creating uneven sections and noticeable trip hazards. The open joints allowed additional water to continue eroding the soils, accelerating the settlement over time.
After:
Sure-Dry restored the sidewalk using PolyLevel®, injecting the high-density structural foam beneath the sunken slabs to lift and stabilize them. Once the walkway was level, joints and cracks were sealed using NexusPro® to prevent future water intrusion and protect against new washout.
The sidewalk is now properly supported, level, and protected for long-term performance.
Concrete Leveling Repair Work in Two Rivers, WI
Before
The homeowner in Two Rivers, WI had a garage floor that had begun to settle, creating large cracks and widening joints across the slab. As the concrete continued to sink from soil movement and freeze-thaw cycles, sections became uneven and created safety concerns. The homeowner began searching for concrete lifting and concrete leveling solutions to stop the cracking from getting worse.
After
Sure-Dry lifted and stabilized the garage floor using PolyLevel® to complete accurate concrete lifting and reduce movement that had contributed to the cracking. The leveling process restored proper slab alignment, closed separation in key areas, and improved surface stability. The completed repair provided long-term concrete leveling performance appropriate for Two Rivers’ freeze-thaw conditions.
Cracked and Sunken Concrete Repaired in Two Rivers, WI
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.

Concrete Sidewalk Lifted, Leveled & Joints Sealed in Two Rivers, WI
Before
A homeowner in Two Rivers, WI was dealing with a sidewalk that had settled and become uneven. The height differences between the concrete slabs created noticeable trip hazards and made the walkway more difficult to navigate.
Wisconsin's repeated freeze-thaw cycles, combined with moisture and movement in the soils beneath concrete, can create voids that allow sidewalk slabs to settle over time. Traditional mudjacking can add considerable weight beneath already-settled concrete, so the homeowner wanted a lighter, more precise solution.
After
Sure-Dry restored the sidewalk using PolyLevel®. Small injection holes were drilled through the concrete, allowing lightweight polyurethane foam to expand beneath the slabs, fill underlying voids, stabilize the concrete and carefully lift the settled sections back toward their proper position.
Compared with traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel uses smaller injection holes, adds significantly less weight beneath the slab and cures quickly so the repaired area can return to service with minimal disruption.
After leveling, NexusPro® was applied to the joints and cracks. The flexible sealant helps keep water from entering beneath the sidewalk where it can contribute to soil washout and future settlement.
The homeowner now has a smoother, safer sidewalk with the underlying slabs stabilized and vulnerable joints better protected from Wisconsin weather.
