Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before
A homeowner in Oshkosh, WI was dealing with a failing block basement, where the foundation walls had begun to bow inward and show stair-step cracking along the mortar joints. The movement had progressed to the point where sections of the wall were visibly unstable, raising serious concerns about structural integrity. In Winnebago County, these conditions are commonly caused by hydrostatic pressure from saturated soils and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. These issues are often searched as foundation repair near me or bowing wall repair Wisconsin, and the homeowner needed a permanent solution from a trusted foundation repair contractor.

After
Our team stabilized the failing walls using the GeoLock Wall Anchor System, installing earth anchors in stable soil outside the home and connecting them to steel plates inside the basement. This system immediately stops further inward movement and provides the ability to gradually straighten the walls over time.
The homeowner now has a secure, stabilized foundation with long-term structural protection and peace of mind.

Before:
A homeowner in Clintonville noticed large horizontal cracks forming along their basement walls, with sections beginning to bow inward. Over time, the movement had become more noticeable, raising concern about the wall’s stability and long-term safety.

After:
Sure-Dry installed a combination of CarbonArmor® reinforcement straps and GeoLock® Wall Anchors to stabilize and permanently secure the compromised walls. The CarbonArmor® system provided immediate strength to stop further bowing, while the GeoLock® Anchors applied durable, adjustable tension from stable soil outside the foundation. 

The homeowner now has a reinforced basement they can trust for years to come.

Before:

A homeowner in Clintonville was dealing with water leaking into their basement during heavy rains and snowmelt. The existing sump system was unreliable, and downspouts were discharging too close to the foundation, allowing water to re-enter the home. The damp conditions created a constant concern about flooding and long-term moisture damage.

After:

Sure-Dry installed a complete waterproofing system that included a TripleSafe™ sump pump for reliable protection, a WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture water at the foundation’s edge, and IceGuard® with buried downspouts to carry discharge water safely away from the home.

The homeowner now has a dry, dependable basement and the peace of mind that their waterproofing system will perform year-round — even in freezing conditions.

Before:

A homeowner in Clintonville noticed the concrete at their garage apron and side entrance step had begun to settle and separate, creating uneven surfaces and noticeable gaps. The drop at the doorway made entering the home unsafe, and water was starting to pool near the foundation during rainfall.

After:

Sure-Dry restored the concrete using PolyLevel® to lift and stabilize the settled slabs back to their original position. NexusPro® joint sealant was then applied to fill cracks and gaps, protecting the repaired surfaces from water infiltration and future shifting.

The result was a smooth, level transition into the home and a safer, more durable entryway the homeowner could rely on.

Before:
A homeowner was struggling with a damp, musty crawl space that often felt humid and uncomfortable above the floors. Insulation had started to deteriorate, and the exposed soil was allowing moisture and odors to rise into the home.

After:
Sure-Dry transformed the space by encapsulating it with the CleanSpace® vapor barrier system to seal out ground moisture and humidity. SilverGlo® insulation panels were installed along the crawl space walls to improve thermal efficiency and further control moisture.

The homeowner now enjoys a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient home environment from the ground up.
