Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

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.

Before:
A homeowner in Manitowoc, WI was experiencing persistent moisture, musty odors, and cold floors above their crawl space. The exposed soil, unsealed rim joists, and damp air common to lake-influenced climates allowed humidity and outside air to move freely into the space. Condensation was forming on wood surfaces, insulation was deteriorating, and the crawl space was contributing to poor indoor comfort and rising energy costs.
After:
Sure-Dry encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace® vapor barrier, sealing the walls and floor to prevent moisture and vapor intrusion. The rim joists were then sealed with RimTight™, creating an airtight thermal boundary that blocks outside air, reduces heat loss, and improves overall energy efficiency.
The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and properly insulated, providing a healthier environment and improved comfort throughout the home.

Before:
A homeowner in Manitowoc, WI wanted to improve safety and natural light in their partially finished basement. The existing window was too small to meet egress requirements and did little to brighten the space. Limited light, restricted ventilation, and code concerns made the basement feel confined and prevented the homeowner from fully utilizing the space.
After:
Sure-Dry installed a code-compliant egress window with a properly sized well and drainage system, ensuring safe emergency exit capability and significantly improving natural light within the basement. The upgraded opening increased ventilation, enhanced usability, and added value to the home, providing a brighter and safer environment for future finishing plans.
The basement now feels more open, comfortable, and ready for expanded living space.

Before
The homeowner in Manitowoc, WI had a back patio slab that had settled toward the home, creating uneven surfaces, pooling water, and safety concerns near the rear entry. The sinking concrete created trip hazards and led the homeowner to look for concrete lifting and concrete leveling options suitable for Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles and soil washout conditions.

After
Sure-Dry raised and stabilized the patio using PolyLevel® to complete the necessary concrete lifting and restore the slab to a proper grade. After achieving full elevation correction, NexusPro® was installed to seal joints and protect the slab from moisture intrusion and freeze-thaw deterioration. The repair addressed the settling slab and delivered reliable concrete leveling performance for Manitowoc’s climate conditions.

Before
The homeowner in Manitowoc, WI had sections of their concrete driveway and the walkway leading to the front entrance settling unevenly, creating height differences, trip hazards, and poor drainage near the home. Seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement contributed to the sinking concrete, prompting the homeowner to look for concrete lifting and concrete leveling solutions suitable for Wisconsin conditions.

After
Sure-Dry restored proper height and alignment to the settled driveway and walkway using PolyLevel® to complete precise concrete lifting and eliminate hazardous elevation changes. The re-leveled surfaces improved drainage, removed trip hazards, and provided long-term concrete leveling performance designed for Manitowoc’s freeze-thaw climate.
