Before & After Photos

Before A homeowner in Manitowoc, WI had recently trusted Sure-Dry to waterproof their basement, but the project also revealed a structural concern that was contributing to the home’s water intrusion. Foundation wall movement had created conditions where moisture could find additional pathways into the basement. Addressing the wet basement was an important first step, but stabilizing the affected foundation walls was necessary to correct the underlying structural problem and provide more complete, long-term protection.
After Sure-Dry installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor System to permanently stabilize the affected foundation walls. The system uses heavy-duty steel earth anchors installed in stable soil outside the foundation and connected to steel wall plates inside the basement. During the exterior installation, the crew carefully removed and preserved sections of sod at each anchor location. Once the anchors were installed and the excavated areas restored, the original sod was placed back into position, leaving virtually no visible evidence that foundation repair work had taken place outside the home.
The homeowner now has a waterproofed basement and stabilized foundation, while the carefully restored lawn looks much like it did before the GeoLock installation.

Before:
A homeowner in Denmark noticed bouncy, uneven floors, small gaps opening at baseboards, and interior doors beginning to stick. In the crawl space, several wood posts were tilting on undersized pads, and some joists showed signs of deflection. The homeowner wanted a permanent, code-compliant fix that wouldn’t require major demolition.

After:
We installed the SmartJack® system to stabilize and lift the floor system. Each steel support was set on an engineered footing designed to distribute loads and resist settlement. After placing new steel support beams where needed, we adjusted the SmartJacks® to bring floors back toward level and eliminate bounce.

The result is a solid, stable first floor and a crawl space with reliable, adjustable structural support for long-term performance.

Before: A garage foundation wall in Denmark, WI was showing signs of movement and needed stabilization. The affected wall included a small window, making it important to use a solution that could reinforce the wall while working around the existing opening.

After: Sure-Dry installed the GeoLock Channel Anchor System to stabilize the garage wall and help prevent further inward movement. The system provides strong, long-term support while accommodating the existing window.

Before: This older Denmark, WI home had a fieldstone basement with multiple structural problems. The foundation walls were failing, and inadequate support beneath the home was contributing to concerns with the floor system above. Moisture coming through the old masonry walls was another issue that needed to be addressed.

After: Sure-Dry installed the EverBrace Wall Restoration System to stabilize the failing foundation walls and the SmartJack System to provide permanent support beneath the floor system. CleanSpace was installed along the walls to create a durable vapor barrier and help manage moisture entering through the fieldstone foundation.
