Before & After Photos

Before: A homeowner in Wrightstown, WI was dealing with a serious foundation settlement issue affecting the corner where their home and garage meet. The foundation was failing as the supporting soil could no longer adequately support the weight of the structure. Without proper repairs, continued settlement could lead to additional structural damage, cracking, and costly repairs.

After: Sure-Dry installed Push Piers to stabilize the failing foundation corner. These engineered steel piers were driven deep beneath the foundation to reach stable, load-bearing soil. Steel brackets connected the pier system to the foundation, transferring the structure's weight away from the unstable upper soil layers. The repair provided lasting structural support and helped prevent further settlement of the home and garage.

Living in their home for more than 50 years, these Pulaski homeowners, find a lot of pride and joy in their home and want to make sure it is in a good, safe living condition. However, a short time ago they started to notice their first floor had areas that were sagging. Devasted and ready to fix the problem, they immediately called Sure-Dry Basement Systems to come and address their sinking floor right away.

Sure-Dry's crew came within just a few days and had applied Supplemental Beams to their basement ceiling and then attached SmartJacks to those beams. SmartJacks, made of galvanized steel, permanently stabilize the first floor from settling right away. As well as, they are meant to prevent further sagging so you won't have to deal with this issue again! However, if future settlement of the home does occur, the SmartJacks will easily be adjusted to fix the sagging floor.

Before

The homeowner in Port Washington, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing severe horizontal cracking and significant inward movement along one of their basement foundation walls. The wall had continued to shift over time, raising concerns about the structural stability of the home and allowing moisture to enter through the growing cracks. Following a detailed inspection, our team documented the wall deflection and determined that the movement was consistent with hydrostatic soil pressure, a common issue in southeastern Wisconsin where expansive soils and repeated freeze-thaw cycles place tremendous stress on foundation walls. The homeowner wanted a permanent foundation repair solution before the damage became more extensive.

After

To permanently stabilize the failing wall, our crew installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor System along with steel wall channels to distribute structural loads evenly across the damaged foundation. The wall was carefully measured and the anchors were installed in stable soil outside the home before being connected to the interior steel channels. The system immediately stopped further inward movement and provides the ability for gradual wall straightening over time through future tightening adjustments. The homeowner now has a permanently stabilized foundation wall and renewed confidence that their home is protected against continued structural movement.
