Concrete Repair Before & After Photos

Before
A homeowner in New Franken, WI was dealing with settled and uneven concrete throughout the driveway and along the side entrance to the home. Several slabs had shifted as the supporting soils beneath the concrete settled and washed out, creating uneven transitions and potential trip hazards near an entrance used regularly by the family. Open joints and low areas also allowed water to work beneath the concrete, increasing the potential for additional settlement during Northeast Wisconsin’s seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. Sure-Dry has documented similar concrete settlement in New Franken caused by voids, failed joints, and water infiltration into the subbase.
After
Sure-Dry restored the affected areas using PolyLevel® High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. The lightweight polyurethane foam was injected beneath the driveway and side entrance slabs to fill underlying voids and provide controlled lifting and stabilization. Once the concrete leveling was complete, NexusPro® Concrete Joint Sealant was applied to appropriate cracks and joints to help prevent water from reaching and eroding the supporting soils below. PolyLevel and NexusPro are used together by Sure-Dry for lifting, stabilizing, and protecting settled driveways and walkways throughout Northeast Wisconsin. Unlike traditional mudjacking, or slab jacking, which pumps a heavier cement-based slurry beneath the slab, PolyLevel uses lightweight expanding polyurethane foam, smaller injection holes, and allows for precise adjustments during the lift. The completed concrete lifting project provided the homeowner with a smoother driveway and safer, more stable access to the side entrance of the home.

Before
A homeowner in New Franken, WI noticed that the concrete around their 15-year-old home had started to settle. Sections of the driveway, the walkway leading to the side entrance of the garage, and the front sidewalk were sinking and becoming uneven. Over time, soil settlement and water moving beneath concrete can create voids that leave slabs without consistent support, leading to uneven surfaces and trip hazards around frequently used entrances. Similar driveway and sidewalk settlement is addressed throughout Brown County and Northeast Wisconsin.
After
Sure-Dry restored the affected concrete using PolyLevel® High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. Small injection holes were strategically placed so PolyLevel could expand beneath the driveway and walkways, fill underlying voids, and provide controlled lifting and stabilization. NexusPro® Concrete Joint Sealant was then applied to appropriate cracks and joints to help limit water from reaching and eroding the supporting soils beneath the slabs. Sure-Dry uses PolyLevel for lifting and leveling sinking concrete and NexusPro for sealing and protecting concrete joints and cracks. Unlike traditional mudjacking, or slab jacking, which relies on a heavier cement-based material, PolyLevel uses lightweight polyurethane foam and smaller injection holes for precise lifting. The completed concrete leveling project gave the homeowner a smoother driveway and safer, more stable walking surfaces at both the side garage entrance and front of the home.

Before
A homeowner in New Franken, WI was dealing with cracking and settlement in the concrete driveway slabs directly in front of the garage, while the remainder of the driveway was blacktop. The concrete had sunk enough to create uneven transitions where the slabs met the garage and surrounding driveway. Loss of soil support beneath the concrete can allow slabs to settle over time, while cracks and open joints give water additional pathways beneath the surface. Northeast Wisconsin’s repeated freeze-thaw cycles can further contribute to movement as moisture affects the supporting soils.
After
Sure-Dry repaired the settled concrete with PolyLevel® High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam, injecting the lightweight polyurethane beneath the slabs to fill voids, stabilize the underlying areas, and carefully lift the concrete toward its proper elevation. NexusPro® Concrete Joint Sealant was then used to seal appropriate cracks and joints, helping limit water infiltration beneath the repaired slabs. Unlike traditional mudjacking, or slab jacking, which pumps a heavier cement-based slurry beneath the concrete, PolyLevel uses lightweight expanding foam, smaller injection holes, and provides precise control during concrete lifting. The finished repair created a smoother transition between the blacktop driveway, concrete slabs, and garage while providing the homeowner with a more stable surface for everyday vehicle traffic.

Before A homeowner in Oconto, WI, had a sidewalk leading up to the house that had settled over time, leaving uneven concrete slabs along a frequently used path to the home. Soil erosion and seasonal moisture changes beneath exterior concrete can create voids that allow slabs to sink, while Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles can make the problem worse. The uneven walkway created a potential tripping hazard and led the homeowner to look for a concrete lifting company that could restore the existing sidewalk rather than replace it. Sure-Dry provides PolyLevel concrete leveling for sidewalks and other settled slabs throughout Oconto County.
After Sure-Dry used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to fill voids beneath the affected sidewalk slabs and carefully lift the concrete back into proper alignment. The crew then applied NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to the joints and cracks, helping limit water infiltration and future soil erosion beneath the walkway. Unlike traditional mudjacking, which pumps a heavier cement-based slurry beneath concrete, PolyLevel uses lightweight polyurethane foam and requires only small injection holes to perform controlled concrete leveling.
The homeowner now has a smoother, more stable sidewalk and a safer approach to the house.

Before A homeowner in Oconto, WI, noticed concerning gaps beginning to form between the walls and concrete floor in two rooms along one side of their slab-on-grade home. These separations indicated that portions of the concrete slab were settling as support beneath the floor was being lost. Soil shrinkage, settlement, and erosion can create hidden voids beneath a slab foundation, allowing the concrete to move downward while the walls remain in place. Sure-Dry has addressed this type of slab-on-grade settlement in Oconto County using PolyLevel to fill underlying voids and stabilize the concrete.
After Sure-Dry used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the affected areas of the home's concrete slab. The expanding polyurethane foam filled the hidden voids, reestablished support beneath the floor, and allowed the settled concrete to be carefully lifted toward its proper elevation. Unlike traditional mudjacking or slab jacking, which uses a much heavier cement-based material, PolyLevel provides a lightweight solution specifically capable of lifting and stabilizing slab foundations.
The homeowner now has improved support beneath the affected side of the home and a stabilized concrete floor, addressing the settlement that had caused gaps to develop between the floors and walls.
