Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Julie & Brad of Wrightstown, WI noticed a crack in one of their basement walls.  After further inspection, they also noticed that the wall was bowing in.  What was causing this? 

Foundation walls move inward primarily due to expansive soils and hydrostatic pressure on the walls from outside. However, foundation walls may also crack due to many other outside causes, including foundation settlement. Our foundation experts will accurately identify the cause of your home's foundation problems.  In Julie and Brad's case, the wet, expansive soil around the home's foundation was pushing on the wall, causing the bowing and cracking.  

Sure-Dry Basement Systems was able to restore Julie & Brad's piece of mind with their GeoLock Wall Anchor System.  The Supportworks Geo-Lock™ Wall Anchor System permanently stabilizes your basement walls, offering the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost and disruption of foundation replacement.  Heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors are embedded in stable, undisturbed soil outside your foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides clamping pressure against the inside of the foundation wall. This method also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position.

At Sure-Dry Basement Systems we can fix foundation issues related to bowing, buckling basement walls of all types. Our wall anchor systems include a 25-year warranty against manufacturing defects, as well as a performance warranty from us.

In Wrightstown, WI, these homeowners had a goal: turn their dark, underused basement into a safe, livable space—and increase their home's property value in the process. The challenge? Their basement didn’t meet building code requirements due to the lack of a proper egress window.

That’s where Sure-Dry came in.

To solve both the safety and resale concerns, our team installed a Rockwell Premier Series Egress Window System, known for its durability, aesthetic appeal, and code-compliance.

Why This Wrightstown Home Needed an Egress Window

Before installation, the basement had:

• A small, outdated window that didn’t allow for safe escape

• Minimal natural light

• No potential for use as a legal bedroom or finished living area

After installation, the space gained:

• A code-compliant emergency exit with a built-in ladder

• A durable, stone-look composite window well

• A clear cover to protect from moisture, debris, and pests

• A flood of natural light that transformed the look and feel of the space

The Result: A Basement That Adds Value

Installing a basement egress window in Wrightstown, WI not only brought this home up to code, but also increased its usable square footage and long-term market appeal. Homes with finished, legal basement bedrooms or family rooms are more attractive to buyers—and this project gave the homeowners the flexibility to use the space however they wanted.

Living in their home for more than 50 years, these Pulaski homeowners, find a lot of pride and joy in their home and want to make sure it is in a good, safe living condition. However, a short time ago they started to notice their first floor had areas that were sagging. Devasted and ready to fix the problem, they immediately called Sure-Dry Basement Systems to come and address their sinking floor right away.

Sure-Dry's crew came within just a few days and had applied Supplemental Beams to their basement ceiling and then attached SmartJacks to those beams. SmartJacks, made of galvanized steel, permanently stabilize the first floor from settling right away. As well as, they are meant to prevent further sagging so you won't have to deal with this issue again! However, if future settlement of the home does occur, the SmartJacks will easily be adjusted to fix the sagging floor. 

 These homeowners are pleased to hear they can continue to live in their home for many more years and not have to worry about a sagging floor!

Getting concrete replaced is a lot of work and frustrating, considering you can't drive on the new concrete for quite some time. Wouldn't it be nice if there was something that could just lift the concrete back to its normal place and not have to worry about it sinking back in the future... well there is!

Its called PolyLevel and that's what these homeowners in Pulaski did. They too were looking for a solution that wouldn't make a huge mess and would be a short process. So they gave Sure-Dry a call to see what we had to offer them and they found the perfect answer, PolyLevel.

PolyLevel raises sinking concrete back to its normal place by drilling a tiny hole (the size of a penny) into the area of the concrete that's affected and applies polyurethane foam which is waterproof so you won't have to worry about it washing out. Plus it's super easy and only takes a couple minutes to install.

After our crew completes that simple process, we topped the project off with our NexusPro. NexusPro is like a very strong glue that covers up the cracks in the concrete slabs so water can't seep into the middle and wash the soil out from under it. 

Thanks to Sure-Dry these Pulaski homeowners found a solution for their home that fit their needs perfectly.
