Before: Cracked, Bowing Walls Threatened This New Holstein Basement

In New Holstein, WI, a homeowner was facing serious foundation problems. Their block foundation walls were showing stair-step cracking and starting to bow inward—a clear sign that soil pressure and seasonal moisture had begun to compromise the structural integrity of the home.

Without proper reinforcement, the walls were at risk of continued movement, water intrusion, and even collapse. The basement’s safety, stability, and value were all on the line.

After: Reinforced, Stabilized, and Protected for the Long Term

To provide a lasting solution, Sure-Dry installed a combination of GeoLock® Wall Anchors and the PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System—a dual approach designed to halt movement and restore strength to compromised foundation walls.

What We Installed:

• GeoLock® Wall Anchors to stabilize walls by anchoring them to solid, undisturbed soil outside the foundation

• PowerBrace™ steel I-beams to reinforce sections where interior bracing was more effective than exterior access

• Tightening capabilities on both systems for gradual realignment over time

• Clean, professional interior finishes that maintain basement usability and appearance

This hybrid repair approach was tailored to the unique needs of the home, allowing our team to address both severe bowing and areas of limited excavation access. The foundation is now permanently stabilized, and the risk of worsening cracks or water issues has been greatly reduced.
