Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before: A homeowner in Wrightstown, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing the concrete walkway leading to the front door had become uneven and settled over time. The shifting slabs created tripping hazards near the front entrance and allowed water to collect along portions of the walkway during rain and snowmelt. Like many homes throughout Brown County and Northeast Wisconsin, repeated freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil conditions beneath the slabs had caused the concrete to crack and sink. The homeowner was searching for a concrete lifting company and concrete leveling contractor that could restore the existing walkway 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 step repair solution that would improve safety, drainage, and curb appeal around the front entrance.

After: Sure-Dry inspected the walkway leading to the front door and identified several settlement areas beneath the concrete slabs. To restore the surface, 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 walkway.The completed repair restored a safer and more stable walking surface while helping protect the concrete against continued settlement common throughout Wrightstown and Northeast Wisconsin.

Before A homeowner in Wrightstown, WI wanted to make their basement safer, brighter, and better suited for usable living space. The existing basement window was too small to provide adequate natural light or a safe emergency exit. A properly designed egress window installation was needed to create a larger opening while protecting the foundation from water intrusion and Wisconsin’s seasonal moisture conditions. Sure-Dry has completed similar egress window projects in Wrightstown to address these same safety, light, and basement-finishing concerns.
After Sure-Dry installed a code-compliant Egress Window System, including a properly sized basement window and durable exterior window well. The installation required excavation alongside the foundation, precisely cutting a new opening through the concrete foundation wall, and carefully sealing the window assembly against moisture. Drainage stone was installed at the base of the well to help manage water and provide long-term protection around the new opening. The completed egress window provides significantly more natural light along with an accessible emergency exit.
The homeowner now has a brighter, safer, and more functional basement with an egress window designed for long-term performance.

Living in their home for more than 50 years, these Pulaski homeowners, find a lot of pride and joy in their home and want to make sure it is in a good, safe living condition. However, a short time ago they started to notice their first floor had areas that were sagging. Devasted and ready to fix the problem, they immediately called Sure-Dry Basement Systems to come and address their sinking floor right away.

Sure-Dry's crew came within just a few days and had applied Supplemental Beams to their basement ceiling and then attached SmartJacks to those beams. SmartJacks, made of galvanized steel, permanently stabilize the first floor from settling right away. As well as, they are meant to prevent further sagging so you won't have to deal with this issue again! However, if future settlement of the home does occur, the SmartJacks will easily be adjusted to fix the sagging floor. 

 These homeowners are pleased to hear they can continue to live in their home for many more years and not have to worry about a sagging floor!

Getting concrete replaced is a lot of work and frustrating, considering you can't drive on the new concrete for quite some time. Wouldn't it be nice if there was something that could just lift the concrete back to its normal place and not have to worry about it sinking back in the future... well there is!

Its called PolyLevel and that's what these homeowners in Pulaski did. They too were looking for a solution that wouldn't make a huge mess and would be a short process. So they gave Sure-Dry a call to see what we had to offer them and they found the perfect answer, PolyLevel.

PolyLevel raises sinking concrete back to its normal place by drilling a tiny hole (the size of a penny) into the area of the concrete that's affected and applies polyurethane foam which is waterproof so you won't have to worry about it washing out. Plus it's super easy and only takes a couple minutes to install.

After our crew completes that simple process, we topped the project off with our NexusPro. NexusPro is like a very strong glue that covers up the cracks in the concrete slabs so water can't seep into the middle and wash the soil out from under it. 

Thanks to Sure-Dry these Pulaski homeowners found a solution for their home that fit their needs perfectly.
