Sagging Floors Repaired with Foundation Repair Contractor in Marinette, WI
Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI noticed sagging floors and bounce throughout the main level of the home, with the issue traced back to the crawl space below. Upon inspection, undersized and settling support posts were no longer providing adequate structural support, allowing floor joists to deflect over time. These conditions are common in northern Wisconsin homes where soil conditions and aging supports contribute to uneven floors and reduced structural performance.
After
Sure-Dry installed SmartJack® adjustable steel support posts to stabilize the crawl space and restore proper support to the floor system above. Each SmartJack was installed on a reinforced footing and adjusted to lift and permanently support the sagging beams and joists, improving load transfer and floor stability. The system was designed to provide long-term structural support while allowing for future adjustment if needed.
The homeowner now has solid, stable floors and confidence in the structural integrity of their home.
Wet Basement Contractor Installs Waterproofing System in Marinette, WI
Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI was preparing to put their home on the market but had ongoing basement water concerns that could impact buyer confidence and inspection results. Water intrusion along the wall-to-floor joint during rain events indicated groundwater pressure that was not being properly managed. Addressing the issue prior to listing was important to prevent disclosure complications and protect the home’s resale value.
After
Sure-Dry installed an interior perimeter drainage system using WaterGuard® along with a new SuperSump® system to effectively collect and remove groundwater before it could enter the basement. The drainage system was placed at the footing to intercept water at its entry point and direct it efficiently to the sump pump for discharge. This solution provided reliable moisture control and ensured the basement was protected prior to listing the home.
The homeowner was able to move forward with selling the home knowing the basement water issue had been properly addressed.
Cracked and Sinking Concrete Apron Lifted and Leveled in Marinette, WI
Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI had a settling garage apron that created an uneven transition between the driveway and garage floor, raising concerns about trip hazards, water drainage, and long-term concrete damage. Although the site visit occurred during winter with light snow cover, elevation checks using a level and precise measurements clearly confirmed slab settlement and downward slope toward the garage—common in northern Wisconsin due to freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement.
After
Sure-Dry completed the repair in spring by lifting and stabilizing the garage apron using PolyLevel® to restore proper elevation and alignment. Once the slab was brought back to grade, joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro® to help prevent surface water from penetrating beneath the concrete. The repair corrected the sinking apron without replacement and reestablished proper drainage away from the garage.
The homeowner now has a level, secure garage apron designed to perform reliably through seasonal weather changes.
Sunken Concrete Walkway Lifted and Leveled in Marinette, WI
Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI had a settled sidewalk leading up to the home, creating an uneven walking surface and a noticeable drop near the concrete patio located beneath a roof overhang. The settlement posed a trip hazard and allowed water to collect and drain back toward the foundation. Limited access from the roof overhang made full concrete replacement impractical, while Wisconsin freeze-thaw cycles continued to worsen the uneven slabs.
After
Sure-Dry stabilized and lifted the affected sidewalk slabs using PolyLevel® to restore proper elevation and create a smooth, even walking surface. The precision lifting process corrected the settlement without disturbing the adjacent patio or the roof structure above. Proper alignment improved drainage away from the home and eliminated the trip hazard without the need for removal or replacement.
The homeowner now has a level, safe sidewalk that complements the patio area and performs reliably in all seasons.
Cracked and Sunken Concrete Driveway Lifted and Leveled in Marinette, WI
Before
The homeowner in Marinette, WI had a severely cracked and sunken concrete driveway along with an uneven walkway leading to the front door. The settlement created multiple trip hazards and caused improper drainage toward the home, while widening cracks allowed water to reach the soil below. These conditions are common in northern Wisconsin where freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement accelerate concrete deterioration.
After
Sure-Dry lifted and stabilized the settled concrete using PolyLevel® to restore proper elevation across the driveway and walkway. Once the slabs were realigned, cracks and joints were sealed with NexusPro® to help prevent moisture intrusion and protect the base material beneath the concrete. The repair eliminated trip hazards, improved drainage, and restored safe access to the home without the need for full replacement.
The homeowner now has a level, secure driveway and walkway designed to withstand seasonal weather conditions.
