Before: Uneven Concrete & Tripping Hazards

In Abbotsford, this homeowner’s driveway and front sidewalk had begun to settle and shift over time, causing noticeable unevenness and gaps between slabs. These dips weren’t just a cosmetic concern—they were creating tripping hazards and allowing water to collect in low spots, which could lead to further damage down the road.

After: Lifted, Leveled & Protected

Sure-Dry used PolyLevel® injection foam to raise the sunken concrete and restore a safe, even surface. We followed up with NexusPro® joint and crack sealant to seal the gaps and prevent water infiltration that can cause future settling.

Now, the sidewalk and driveway are safe, smooth, and protected—no replacement needed.

Before:
This Medford homeowner had uneven concrete along the sidewalk and driveway that was starting to show signs of wear — cracks, shifting slabs, and gaps between sections. Not only was it a tripping hazard, but water was beginning to drain the wrong direction and creep toward the foundation.

After:
We used PolyLevel® to lift and level the sunken slabs, restoring a smooth, safe walking and driving surface. Then we sealed the joints with NexusPro®, a flexible, long-lasting sealant that prevents water from seeping between slabs and causing more erosion or cracking.

Now the sidewalk and driveway are level, sealed, and protected for years to come — and the home has better curb appeal and water control to boot.

Before:
A homeowner in Nekoosa had settlement along the walkway to the front door and at the garage threshold. Toe-stubbing lips formed at panel joints, step heights were uneven at the entry, and the slab in front of the garage dropped enough to leave a gap at the door seal—letting water and road salt creep under the concrete.

After:
We injected PolyLevel® beneath the settled walkway panels and the slab in front of the garage, filling voids and lifting in controlled increments to restore smooth transitions, uniform step heights, and a tight seal at the garage door. Small (penny-size) injection ports were patched for a clean finish.

The approach is now level, safer to use, and pitched to move water away from the home.

Before
A homeowner in Nekoosa, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing their driveway and walkway had begun to settle unevenly. The concrete slabs had shifted, creating height differences, cracks, and gaps that posed both safety concerns and reduced curb appeal. With Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement, these conditions are common and often lead to the need for concrete lifting and concrete leveling.

Water was also beginning to collect in the low areas and enter the open joints, increasing the risk of further soil erosion beneath the slabs. The homeowner was looking for a trusted concrete lifting company and contractor to restore the surfaces and prevent ongoing damage.

After
Our team used PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to lift and level the settled driveway and walkway. Through small, strategically drilled holes, the expanding foam was injected beneath the concrete to raise the slabs back into position while stabilizing the underlying soil.

To complete the repair and protect the concrete long-term, we applied NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to all joints and cracks. This flexible sealant helps prevent water intrusion, reducing the risk of future washout and movement.

Unlike traditional mudjacking (also known as slab jacking), which uses a heavier material that can add stress to already unstable soils, PolyLevel is lightweight, cures quickly, and provides a more durable solution. Combined with NexusPro, this approach addresses both the structural issue and long-term protection for concrete floor repair and concrete step repair needs.

The driveway and walkway are now level, sealed, and safe for everyday use.
The homeowner can confidently use their outdoor spaces knowing the concrete is stabilized and protected against future conditions.

The concrete patio of this home in Arpin, WI was sunken, uneven due to soil erosion underneath the slabs.

Sure-Dry Basement Systems was able to lift and level this patio with their PolyLevel® Injection Foam system. PolyLevel® is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface.
