Recently, we faced a particularly challenging situation with a homeowner from Long Lake, WI. The problem? Their house had large vertical cracks in the foundation, and the foundation walls were bowing inwards. It's a homeowner's nightmare to see the structural integrity of their home compromised. They reached out to us in the hope that we could address and remediate these alarming issues. Upon receiving the homeowner's call, our Customer Care team swiftly scheduled a home inspection appointment. Our experienced System Design Specialist was on-site to fully assess the situation. The diagnosis pointed towards a significant risk to the home's structure, requiring immediate action. Our recommendation: the GeoLock Wall Anchor system. This product is designed specifically for this type of structural problem, aiming to not only halt further damage but to offer a lasting solution to foundation displacement and wall deformation. Installation day came, and our professional production team, led by a skilled foreman and comprised of expert installers, got to work. The GeoLock Wall Anchor system involves anchoring into stable soil away from the foundation wall, then connecting these anchors to steel plates on the interior foundation walls. This effectively braces the walls, preventing further bowing and cracks from worsening. Cleanup was thorough – we believe in leaving no trace behind, except for the structural solutions we install. By the time we were done, the homeowner could visibly see the improvements. The vertical cracks had been stabilized, no longer posing the threat of further expansion, and the inward bowing of the foundation walls was effectively countered. For us at Sure-Dry, it felt good to know that we had restored the homeowner's peace of mind by providing a robust solution to a critical problem.
