Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before
A homeowner in Oshkosh, WI began noticing significant signs of foundation wall failure, including horizontal cracking and inward bowing of the basement walls. These issues are common in Wisconsin homes due to expanding clay soils and hydrostatic pressure from heavy rain and snowmelt. As the wall movement progressed, the homeowner grew concerned about the structural integrity of the home and began searching for a trusted foundation repair company and foundation repair contractor in Wisconsin.

The failing walls were no longer able to withstand the lateral pressure from the surrounding soil, putting the home at risk for further structural damage. Bowing wall repair is critical in situations like this, as continued movement can lead to severe instability and costly repairs if not addressed promptly.

After
Sure-Dry installed the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System along with the PowerBrace Wall Stabilization System to permanently stabilize the failing foundation walls. The CarbonArmor system uses high-strength carbon fiber straps bonded directly to the wall to prevent further cracking and movement, while the PowerBrace system provides adjustable steel beam support to reinforce and potentially straighten the walls over time.

Together, these systems created a comprehensive foundation repair solution tailored to the severity of the wall damage.
The walls are now stabilized, and the homeowner has regained confidence in the safety and long-term performance of their home.

Before:
This homeowner in Oshkosh, WI was dealing with a driveway and sidewalk that had developed multiple large cracks and uneven sections over time. The settled concrete created trip hazards, poor drainage, and open joints where water was getting underneath the slabs and washing out the supporting soil.

Like many concrete surfaces in Wisconsin, years of freeze/thaw cycles and moisture movement had caused the slabs to sink and separate.

After:
Instead of tearing everything out and replacing the concrete, we repaired and restored it using:

• PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift and level the sunken slabs by filling voids beneath the concrete and stabilizing the soil
• NexusPro® Joint & Crack Sealant to seal cracks and joints and help prevent future water intrusion and washout

This approach provided the homeowner with a faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective solution compared to full concrete replacement.

Now the concrete is:
✔️ Level
✔️ Safer to walk on and drive on
✔️ Better protected against future settlement and water damage

The homeowner was able to restore the appearance and function of the driveway and sidewalk without the mess, downtime, and expense of pouring brand-new concrete.

Before: A homeowner in Oshkosh, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing sections of their concrete driveway and walkway leading to the front door had become uneven and settled over time. The sinking slabs created tripping hazards near the entrance and caused water to collect in low areas during heavy rain and snowmelt. Like many homes throughout Winnebago County and the Fox Valley region, repeated freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil conditions beneath the slabs had caused the concrete to crack and shift. The homeowner was searching for a concrete lifting company and concrete leveling contractor that could restore the existing concrete without the expense and disruption of replacement.
Traditional mudjacking, also referred to as slab jacking, can place additional weight on unstable soils and often requires larger drill holes throughout the slab surface. The homeowner wanted a long-lasting concrete floor repair and concrete step repair solution that would improve safety, drainage, and curb appeal around the property.

After: Sure-Dry inspected the driveway and front walkway and identified several settlement areas beneath the affected concrete slabs. To restore the surfaces, the crew installed PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam beneath the settled sections to carefully lift and level the concrete back into position. Unlike traditional mudjacking methods, PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam is lightweight, cures quickly, and helps reduce additional stress on weakened soils beneath the slab. Once the lifting process was completed, the joints and cracks were sealed using NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant to help prevent future water intrusion and soil washout beneath the driveway and walkway.
The completed repair restored a safer and more uniform concrete surface while helping protect the slabs against continued settlement common throughout Oshkosh and Central Wisconsin.
