Stamped Concrete Walkway Lifting in Waunakee

In the picturesque town of Waunakee, homeowners take immense pride in maintaining the beauty and safety of their properties. However, even the most meticulously cared-for homes encounter issues over time, such as the sinking or settling of concrete walkways. These issues not only pose safety hazards but also diminish the overall appeal of a property. This is where expert concrete lifting and leveling services come into play, offering homeowners effective solutions to restore both safety and aesthetics of their sinking concrete.

The Challenge:

This homeowner in Waunakee noticed that their elegant stamped & colored concrete walkway had started to sink in certain areas. Concerned about the trip hazards & the safety of their family and visitors, as well as the visual appeal of their property, the homeowner was looking for a reliable and cost-effective solution to fix the issue promptly and effectively.

The Solution:

Enter JW Mudjacking & Concrete Leveling, your local expert in concrete repair and concrete leveling services. We proposed a tailored solution designed to meet the homeowner’s specific needs and opted for polyurethane foam injection.

The Process:

We started the project by conducting a thorough assessment of the walkway to determine the extent of the sinking and any underlying causes. After identifying the areas requiring attention, our team meticulously drilled small access holes strategically positioned along the walkway. The tiny holes were drilled between the grout lines, making them barely noticeable.

Through these access points, polyurethane foam—a high-density, expanding material—was injected beneath the surface of the concrete. As the foam expanded, it exerted controlled pressure, lifting the sunken sections of the walkway back to its original level. At the same time, the chipmunk burrows and voids beneath the concrete were filled and sealed, ensuring long-lasting stability and preventing future issues.

When the concrete was once again level, we filled in the few tiny holes with a concrete mixture that matched the existing grout so you barely noticed we were there (besides now having a level walkway 🙂 

The Result:

Within a matter of hours, the transformation was complete. The once-uneven and hazardous walkway is now level, stable, and visually stunning once again. The homeowner is delighted with the results, appreciating not only the restored safety but also the enhanced curb appeal of their property. They also loved how much money they saved versus new concrete, and are thrilled they made the smart decision to raise their concrete rather than replace it. And the chipmunks lost their home. So overall a big win win.
