Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

When our customer in Colby, WI noticed their foundation issues, they didn’t want it to get worse. As you can see in the before photo, the problem was quite evident. Our solution? Implementing our GeoLock Wall Anchor and PowerBrace systems for a reliable fix. Notice in the after photo: a significantly reinforced and stabilized foundation. We delivered on our mission, providing a remarkable experience and a long-lasting solution to secure the integrity of their home.

Before:
A homeowner in Nekoosa had a poured concrete basement wall with a horizontal crack near mid-height and faint diagonal cracks from the corners. After heavy rains the wall showed slight inward bowing—classic signs of lateral soil pressure—and they wanted a non-invasive solution that wouldn’t require exterior excavation.

After:
We reinforced the wall with the CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System—high-strength carbon fiber straps epoxied in vertical runs and locked to the floor system (ArmorLock™ top anchors) for continuous restraint, all installed from the inside with a low-profile finish.

The wall is now stabilized against further inward movement and ready for finishing or paint.

In Arpin, WI, a collapsing retaining wall posed a major concern, as shown in the before photo. This threat to both structural integrity and property value needed immediate attention. We addressed the problem by installing our GeoLock Wall Anchor System, illustrated in the after photo. This innovative system stabilizes foundation walls, preventing inward movement and maintaining permanent protection. With the use of heavy-duty steel earth anchors and steel wall plates, our team provided a reliable solution, securing the homeowner's peace of mind and establishing lasting stability.

Before:

This Wisconsin Rapids, WI, homeowner had cracked, bowing basement walls caused by years of soil pressure and moisture. The structural damage created concern for the safety and stability of the foundation, as cracks continued to widen with each season.

After:

Sure-Dry installed the GeoLock® Wall Anchor System to permanently stabilize the foundation walls. The system uses steel anchors embedded in undisturbed soil to counteract external pressure, halting movement and allowing gradual straightening over time.

The homeowner now has a strong, secure foundation and confidence knowing their home is protected from further wall movement and structural damage.

We received a call from homeowners in Wisconsin Rapids, WI about their basement walls bowing in and cracking. 

To fix this problem, the crew installed 4 GeoLocks to their basement walls. The GeoLocks work by anchoring walls to stable, undisturbed soil outside of their home. Over time, the threaded rods will work to pull the wall back to their original location.  

With the structure of their home in good hands, these homeowners are at peace of mind.
