Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Cracks and uneven surfaces in this Manitowoc, WI driveway posed both tripping hazards and lowered the home's curb appeal, prompting the homeowner to seek reliable solutions. As you can see, we addressed these issues using SealantPro® and PolyLevel®. SealantPro extended the lifespan of the concrete by creating a resistant barrier against water and chemical damage. Meanwhile, our PolyLevel system lifted and stabilized the concrete using precision-applied polyurethane foam. Notice in the after photo how the once-troublesome driveway is now smoothly restored, showcasing our commitment to quality lasting results.

Before: Finished Basement Walls Removed Due to Water Coming in from All Sides

This Manitowoc, WI homeowner had water pouring into their basement from nearly every direction. With a previously finished basement, the damage was even harder to swallow—they had to remove the bottom half of their finished walls due to extensive water intrusion and mold concerns. It wasn’t just about keeping water out; it was about restoring comfort, value, and peace of mind.

After: A Fully Waterproofed & Cleanly Restored Finished Basement

To stop the leaks for good, we installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system around the perimeter of the basement to catch and redirect water before it could reach the living space. We added a TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System with battery backup for maximum water protection, and installed a Sedona SaniDry™ dehumidifier to keep humidity and mold at bay long-term.

Once dry, we restored the finished walls with EverLast™ Wall Restoration Panels—a mold-resistant, durable solution designed for basements. And to preserve the clean look of the space, we disguised the WaterGuard access ports with faux heat vents. This clever touch allowed the homeowner to reinstall flooring without blocking future access to the system.

Now, the basement is dry, clean, and looks just as good as it functions—ready for family use once again.

Before:
An older home in Manitowoc, WI was showing progressive foundation failure, driven by the region’s mixed sandy and clay soils and seasonal moisture swings near Lake Michigan. The homeowner reported worsening wall deflection in the basement and sagging support areas beneath the main level, with cracking and floor unevenness becoming more pronounced. Inspection confirmed failing load paths and lateral pressure that required immediate structural reinforcement to prevent further displacement.
After:
Sure-Dry installed an EverBrace™ Wall Restoration System to permanently support the compromised foundation walls and restore load-bearing stability. Beneath the home, a series of SmartJack® supports were set to lift and stabilize sagging beams, with torque and load verification performed based on Wisconsin soil conditions to ensure reliable long-term performance.
The home is now structurally supported, giving the homeowner confidence in a safer, reinforced foundation.

Before:
A homeowner in Manitowoc, WI was dealing with recurring basement water intrusion made worse by lake-effect moisture and seasonal freeze–thaw cycles. The basement showed perimeter seepage during rains, pooling near the slab edges, and visible staining along the foundation walls. Musty odors and elevated humidity were becoming more noticeable, and inspection confirmed inadequate drainage paired with unprotected, moisture-absorbing wall surfaces that contributed to ongoing water issues.
After:
Sure-Dry installed a SuperSump® system paired with a full perimeter WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture and redirect water before it reached the basement floor. To address wall moisture and improve long-term protection, CleanSpace® vapor barrier was installed along the basement walls, providing a sealed, durable, and waterproof surface.
With these systems in place, the basement remains dry, cleaner, and protected from future water intrusion.

Before:
In Manitowoc, WI, a homeowner noticed significant settling in the driveway sections near the garage and along the walkway leading up to the house. The slabs had dropped unevenly due to the region’s moisture-sensitive clay and sandy soil mix, creating gaps, trip hazards, and pooling water during rain. The settlement was worsening each season as freeze–thaw cycles expanded the voids beneath the concrete, making it unsafe and diminishing curb appeal.
After:
Sure-Dry restored the concrete using PolyLevel®, injecting the high-density structural foam beneath the sunken sections to lift and relevel the driveway and approach slab with precision. The quick-curing material expanded to fill voids, stabilize the soil, and support long-term performance even through Wisconsin’s seasonal ground movement.
The driveway and walkway are now level, safer to walk on, and protected against further settlement.
