Wet Basement Waterproofing for a Farmhouse in Athens, WI
Before:
In an older farmhouse near Athens, the basement showed classic moisture issues—water at the wall–floor (cove) joint after rains, damp/porous foundation walls with efflorescence, and a persistent musty odor. With uneven wall surfaces typical of older homes, the owners needed a clean, low-maintenance solution that wouldn’t tear up the
space more than necessary.
After:
We installed WaterGuard® interior perimeter drainage to intercept seepage at the cove joint and carry it to a new UltraSump® system with a sealed lid, alarm, and battery backup for reliability during storms. We finished the walls with the CleanSpace® Wall System, mechanically fastening the liner to bridge irregular surfaces and direct wall moisture down into WaterGuard.
Now the basement stays clean, dry, and more usable year-round, with dependable protection even during power outages.
Concrete Driveway Repair In Athens, WI
Before:
A driveway slab had settled and separated from the garage, leaving a toe-stubbing lip at the threshold and a wide gap where water, ice, and debris collected. During rains, water funneled toward the garage, and winter freeze–thaw made the settlement worse.
After:
We injected PolyLevel® beneath the slab to fill voids and lift it back to a smooth, garage-level transition, then sealed the garage-to-slab joint and open cracks with NexusPro® (installed over backer and topped with color-match sand) to keep water out of the base soils.
The threshold is now flush and safe, joints are sealed against moisture, and the slab sheds water away from the garage to help prevent future settlement.
Crawl Space Sealing In Athens, WI
Before:
A homeowner in Athens had a small, low-clearance crawl space with exposed soil, musty odors, and chilly floors above. Seasonal humidity led to light condensation on wood and air leaks at the rim joists made the first floor drafty.
After:
We encapsulated the space with CleanSpace® liner (floor and walls, wrapped piers, all seams sealed), insulated the crawl space walls with SilverGlo® rigid foam, and air-sealed rim joists and penetrations using RimTight™ to block outside air.
The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and insulated—improving comfort, air quality, and energy efficiency throughout the home.
Sagging Floors Resolved in Junction City, WI
Homeowners in Junction City, WI have recently moved into their new home and have started to take into account that having wooden support beams in their basement wasn't the best idea so they gave Sure-Dry a call.
Our team came out and had a look at their support beams and poles. The problem with wooden support beams is in basements it can get very humid and wet. These wet wooden beams will then begin to mold and rot away.The floor above that they are supporting will then begin to sag and even collapse as well.
After examining the situation, our crew knew just what to do. We installed our SmartJacks and Supplemental Beams in replace of their wooden beams. Made of galvanized steel, these poles and beams will not rust or be affected by water in any way. They can adjust to any basement and work extremely well in fixing and raising basement ceilings back to normal.
To get rid of the excess humidity in the air, we also installed our Aprilaire 1850 Dehumidifier.
These homeowners are relieved to know that their floor's support is safe and they can enjoy their new home with no worries!
Supporting Concrete Patio Walls in Coloma, WI
Our Sure-Dry team received a call from homeowners in Coloma, WI for their outside concrete walls to be supported. Over time, they have begun to crack and bow in.
To keep this from happening again we installed 7 GeoLocks. These locks latch onto the soil outside of the concrete slab and pull it back to its proper location.
