Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before

The concrete slabs directly in front of this Ripon, WI garage had settled, creating an uneven transition at the garage entrance. This type of settlement can cause a noticeable bump when pulling vehicles in and out and can continue to worsen as voids develop beneath the concrete.

Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil moisture levels can contribute to concrete settlement. As the soil beneath a slab shifts, washes out, or loses its ability to properly support the concrete, the heavy slab above can begin to sink.

Traditional mudjacking attempts to correct this problem by pumping a heavy cement-based mixture beneath the concrete. Sure-Dry instead used PolyLevel®, a lightweight expanding polyurethane foam designed to fill voids beneath the slab and precisely lift the concrete. PolyLevel requires smaller injection holes than traditional mudjacking, adds very little additional weight to the underlying soil, and cures quickly.

After

PolyLevel was injected beneath the settled garage slabs to fill the voids and carefully lift the concrete back toward its proper position.

The repair improved the transition into the garage while restoring support beneath the slabs. Instead of removing and replacing otherwise usable concrete, the homeowners were able to address the settlement with a minimally invasive concrete lifting solution.

In Waupun, WI homeowners noticed a slight bend in their basements walls. They didn't know if it was something that needed to be fixed or if it would be okay to leave alone. Which is why they called our SureDry team for a free estimate.

Once our crew arrived at their home, we knew it needed care immediately. If these homeowners continued to leave the wall untreated the situation would get much worse and much more expensive. 

Our crew installed 3 GeoLocks on their basement walls. These locks latch on to the hard compacted soil outside and, over time, will be tightened to pull the wall back into place. 

With this new product installed these homeowners can eliminate the fear of their basement walls collapsing and what could be better knowing your foundation is fully protected! 

A homeowner in Waupun, WI was dealing with a chronically wet basement. After heavy rain, water entered along the cove joint where the floor met the wall, pooling several feet into the space. The block foundation showed signs of seepage and mineral staining, and the existing sump system could not keep up—leaving standing water and damp air that threatened storage and air quality.

After:
To solve the problem and keep the basement dry year-round, our team installed a full WaterGuard® perimeter drainage system along the footing to capture groundwater before it reached the floor surface. A new UltraSump® system was set in a sealed liner with IceGuard® and a buried discharge line to ensure reliable pumping even in freezing conditions. Finally, a CleanSpace® wall system was applied to direct moisture into the drain and create a bright, clean finish.

Now, the Waupun basement remains dry, protected, and ready for safe use—no matter the season.

A homeowner in Waupun, WI noticed their concrete driveway and front walkway had begun to settle and separate over time. The driveway slabs had dropped nearly two inches near the garage, creating uneven edges and pooling water. The walkway leading to the front steps showed multiple trip points and open joints where water and debris collected, accelerating surface wear and freeze–thaw cracking.

After:
To restore safety and appearance, the crew used PolyLevel® expanding foam to lift and stabilize the settled slabs across the driveway and front walkway. Once level, all joints and cracks were cleaned and sealed with NexusPro®, a long-lasting silicone sealant designed to block water and remain flexible through Wisconsin’s seasonal changes.

Now, the concrete surfaces around this Waupun home are even, watertight, and protected from future settling—improving both function and curb appeal.

A homeowner in Waupun, WI was struggling with moisture and musty odors coming from their crawl space. Seasonal humidity and groundwater seepage were leaving the exposed soil damp year-round, leading to condensation on wood framing and insulation. The environment was contributing to higher humidity levels inside the home and creating concern about long-term structural and air-quality impacts.

After:
To create a clean, dry, and energy-efficient space, our team encapsulated the crawl space using the CleanSpace® vapor barrier system over the entire floor and walls. SilverGlo® insulation panels were installed along the foundation walls to add thermal protection and reflective efficiency. A SmartSump® system was added to manage any incidental water intrusion, ensuring complete moisture control.

Now, the crawl space in this Waupun home is dry, sealed, and insulated—protecting the structure from future humidity and improving comfort throughout the home.
