Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before
The crawl space beneath this Shawano, WI home was exposed to excess ground moisture, elevated humidity, and unsealed foundation vents that allowed damp outside air to enter year-round. These conditions created the perfect environment for musty odors, condensation, and the potential for mold growth while also reducing the home's energy efficiency. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist measured moisture levels, evaluated the condition of the crawl space, and identified areas where Wisconsin's seasonal temperature swings and freeze-thaw conditions were contributing to ongoing moisture problems. To permanently isolate the crawl space from the earth below, Sure-Dry recommended installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System along with a reliable SuperSump Sump Pump System.
After
Our installation team transformed the crawl space by covering the floor and foundation walls with the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, creating a durable moisture barrier designed to help prevent water vapor from entering the space. To efficiently remove groundwater, the crew installed a SuperSump Sump Pump System, providing dependable water evacuation and helping keep the crawl space dry throughout the year. Together, these systems created a cleaner, healthier, and more energy-efficient crawl space while helping protect the home's structure from excessive moisture. The homeowners now have greater peace of mind knowing their crawl space repair was completed with a long-term solution built for Wisconsin conditions.

Before
The foundation of this lake home in Shawano, WI had begun to settle, causing visible signs of structural movement throughout the property. The homeowner noticed cracks developing in the foundation and interior finishes, along with doors and windows that no longer operated properly. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist documented the settlement, evaluated load-bearing points, and identified unstable supporting soils that had contributed to the foundation movement. Freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil moisture levels common around Wisconsin lakefront properties had accelerated the settlement. To permanently stabilize and help restore the home's foundation, Sure-Dry recommended installing Push Pier Systems.

After
Our foundation repair crew installed engineered Push Pier Systems at carefully selected load-bearing locations around the failing foundation. Each pier was hydraulically advanced to competent load-bearing strata before controlled lifting attempts were made to help recover portions of the settlement where practical. Unlike temporary repairs, push piers permanently transfer the home's weight beyond unstable surface soils, providing long-term structural support. Once the installation was complete, the foundation was stabilized to help prevent additional settlement, giving the homeowners confidence that their lake home now rests on a far more secure foundation.

Before
This Shawano, WI homeowner began a major renovation after discovering significant deterioration in portions of the home's flooring caused by excessive moisture in the crawl space below. Once the damaged flooring was removed, it became clear just how shallow the crawl space was in several areas—making access extremely difficult under normal circumstances. Fortunately, the renovation provided a rare opportunity for Sure-Dry to fully address the moisture issues before the new flooring was installed. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist documented elevated moisture levels, exposed soil, and conditions that could continue to promote wood deterioration and mold growth if left untreated. With Wisconsin's high groundwater levels and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles contributing to crawl space moisture, the recommended solution was a complete CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System paired with a SuperSump Sump Pump System.

After
With the home's flooring already removed, our crawl space repair team was able to access areas that normally would have been nearly impossible to reach due to the limited crawl space height. The crew professionally installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System throughout the crawl space, sealing the exposed earth and helping prevent ground moisture from entering the home. A dependable SuperSump Sump Pump System was also installed to efficiently collect and discharge groundwater before it could accumulate beneath the home. By completing the encapsulation before the renovation was finished, the homeowners were able to protect their investment with a clean, dry crawl space that helps improve indoor air quality, reduce moisture-related problems, and safeguard the home's structural components for years to come.

Before
The homeowners in Shawano, WI began noticing signs of structural settlement in their finished basement, including uneven floors and areas that felt soft or bouncy underfoot. Because the basement had already been finished, protecting the living space while correcting the structural problem was a top priority. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist evaluated the existing floor framing, measured deflection, and identified weakened support beneath the home. The crawl space and supporting soils had allowed portions of the floor system to settle over time, a common issue in Wisconsin due to seasonal moisture changes and freeze-thaw cycles. To permanently stabilize the floor system and restore structural support, Sure-Dry recommended installing the SmartJack Structural Support System.

After
Our foundation repair specialists carefully installed the SmartJack Structural Support System beneath the affected floor framing to permanently reinforce the home's structural support. Each SmartJack was positioned on a properly prepared engineered base and precisely adjusted to reduce floor deflection while providing long-term stabilization. Unlike temporary wood shimming or improvised supports, the galvanized steel SmartJack system is designed to withstand heavy structural loads and can be adjusted in the future if necessary. The completed installation significantly improved the stability of the finished basement floor while giving the homeowners confidence that their home's structural integrity had been restored with a professional foundation repair solution.

Before
The crawl space beneath this Shawano, WI home was experiencing excessive humidity, exposed earth, and poor insulation that allowed moisture and outside temperatures to affect the home's comfort and energy efficiency. The homeowner had noticed musty odors and wanted to address the conditions before they led to more serious problems such as mold growth or wood deterioration. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist measured elevated moisture levels, evaluated the crawl space environment, and identified areas where Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal humidity were impacting the home's crawl space. To create a healthier, more energy-efficient environment, Sure-Dry recommended installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, SilverGlo Crawl Space Insulation, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidification System.

After
Our crawl space repair specialists transformed the space by installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to isolate the crawl space from ground moisture while SilverGlo Crawl Space Insulation was installed along the foundation walls to improve thermal performance and help reduce energy loss. To complete the system, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidification System was added to continuously control humidity and help prevent conditions that promote mold and musty odors. Together, these professionally installed crawl space repair systems created a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient space while helping protect the home's structural components from long-term moisture damage.
