Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Tammy S. of Forestville, WI was experiencing water pooling in her basement and noticed that the water was coming in between the footing and foundation walls.  Along with water coming in, she was concerned about some small cracks she was noticing in the basement walls as well.  Tammy was planning to remodel her basement, but needed a professional to take care of these issues first. 

To take care of the water coming in, we installed our patented WaterGuard system.  WaterGuard takes the traditional interior drainage system to the next level by using a wall flange that allows seepage to enter the drain and collects water off the walls to easily funnel it away from the foundation. WaterGuard also prevents debris from entering the drainage area and provide a clean finished appearance on your floor.

To address the cracks in the basement walls, we installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier System. Our CleanSpace® Wall System holds back water vapor passing through your foundation walls, directing it to your sump pump. With anti-microbial protection called UltraFresh built right in, no mold or mildew will grow on the CleanSpace!

Notice in the before photo, the cracked and uneven concrete that greeted visitors in Forestville, WI – a common but troublesome issue many homeowners face. But, as you can see in the after shot, our team transformed the area, breathing new life into the old surface. By skillfully applying PolyLevel for leveling, NexusPro for joining cracks, and SealantPro for a lasting protectant, we restored not only the functionality but also the curb appeal of this home. We're proud to deliver such durable and aesthetically pleasing solutions, ensuring every client's home is both safe and welcoming.

The concrete slab of this walkway in Pickett, WI was sunken, creating a large gap between the walkway and the front patio.  

To lift this slab and level it with the patio, Sure-Dry Basement Systems applied 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.

Julie & Brad of Wrightstown, WI noticed a crack in one of their basement walls.  After further inspection, they also noticed that the wall was bowing in.  What was causing this? 

Foundation walls move inward primarily due to expansive soils and hydrostatic pressure on the walls from outside. However, foundation walls may also crack due to many other outside causes, including foundation settlement. Our foundation experts will accurately identify the cause of your home's foundation problems.  In Julie and Brad's case, the wet, expansive soil around the home's foundation was pushing on the wall, causing the bowing and cracking.  

Sure-Dry Basement Systems was able to restore Julie & Brad's piece of mind with their GeoLock Wall Anchor System.  The Supportworks Geo-Lock™ Wall Anchor System permanently stabilizes your basement walls, offering the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost and disruption of foundation replacement.  Heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors are embedded in stable, undisturbed soil outside your foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides clamping pressure against the inside of the foundation wall. This method also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position.

At Sure-Dry Basement Systems we can fix foundation issues related to bowing, buckling basement walls of all types. Our wall anchor systems include a 25-year warranty against manufacturing defects, as well as a performance warranty from us.

Homeowners in Berlin WI, have had trouble heating their home and they couldn't find where the problem was coming from so they decided to have a look at their crawlspace, considering they haven't checked it out in awhile. They immediately felt a very cold draft in there and needed to resolve the problem. So they called experts at Sure-Dry to see if there was a solution to their cold crawlspace and we did!

Within just a few short days our installation crew was out and installing our SilverGlo insulator. Our SilverGlo is a foam insulator and within the foam there are tiny particles that will absorb any heat and will push it back into the crawlspace. It also is an insulator which blocks out cool air entering through the walls of the crawlspace.

These homeowners are relieved to know they won't have to spend this winter freezing inside of their home!
