In the before photo, the basement wall in this Manawa, WI home visibly bows inward, posing a risk to the property’s stability. This is why homeowners called Sure-Dry for our expert foundation repair offerings. As seen in the after photo, our team installed the PowerBrace Wall Repair System, which permanently stabilizes walls by utilizing zinc-plated steel beams custom-fit to the basement. Anchored securely and with the potential to be adjusted over time, this innovative solution confidently addresses wall failure without the need for invasive procedures, providing homeowners enduring protection and peace of mind.
Before:
An old farmhouse in Winneconne showed classic signs of structural stress: a block/stone basement wall with stair-step and horizontal cracking, slight inward bowing, bouncy first-floor rooms, and makeshift wood posts with stacked shims under the main beam.
After:
We installed the PowerBrace™ wall repair system to stabilize the failing foundation wall and added SmartJack® adjustable steel supports under the beam, set on engineered footings and tightened to restore bearing and reduce floor deflection.
The wall is now stabilized and the floors are level and solid, protecting the home’s structure for the long term.
In Mayville, WI, a homeowner faced angled front steps and cracking concrete in the garage, creating both aesthetic and safety concerns. As you can see, our team addressed the issue using our trusted solutions. We implemented the PolyLevel® system to lift and level the misaligned steps by injecting high-strength polyurethane foam beneath the concrete. This method stabilized and corrected the pitch seamlessly. To tackle the garage cracks, our team applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant to prevent water penetration and soil erosion, offering a lasting barrier. Notice the transformation? It's results like these that demonstrate our expertise in concrete repair.
In Deerbrook, WI, our client's barn faced a significant issue with settling on one side, compromising structural integrity. In the first photo, the remedial measures required to rectify cracked walls are evident. We resolved this by deploying our Push Pier System. Notice the after photo, which illustrates the stability achieved as we leveraged hydraulic technology to drive engineered steel beams to secure, deeper soils. This specialized approach not only stabilized the foundation but potentially restored alignment of windows and doors while safeguarding the barn's future value and functionality.
